REF: Screen sensitivity using ADSB for traffic

I use the IFLY with STRATUX for ADSB traffic. In the past, when traffic was approaching, I could touch it on the screen and it the system would provide data about that target; heading, speed, and other informaiton.

NOW, when I go to touch the target (little blue triangle) the sytem reacts as though I was touching a point on the map underneath the target and provides options for that point on the surface, and not the traffic...

Is there a setting I changed? Is there a way to rectify this so that I can touch the targets and still get ADBS data from the aircraft as before?

Sorry if this has already been discussed and I missed it, but I do not recall this issue before.

Thanks in advance.

Mike, N714AJ

Are you sure you haven't just been more accurate with your touching before?  Are you saying it's impossible to touch the target, or just that you have to try a few times to get it?

I sometimes have had to hunt-and-peck to get iFly to realize I was trying to touch the traffic target and not some nearby terrain.  (I.e., not a new phenomenon for me.)

Mike, I find I have to recalibrate the screen every so often to keep the items on the screen where they should be.

Cobra,

Yes, I even zoomed into the highest magnification to ensure I was not doing what you suggested...just would not pull up the moving target data.

I may try recalibrating the screen if I can find those procedures...thanks for asking.  Not sure what I did to do this, but it worked fine before and now...nothing.  Mike N714AJ

Dick, that is a superb idea...can you give me a vector to where that button is found on IFly? I don't think I have ever done that before...

Thanks Dick!
