t5e Posted September 29, 2013 Report Posted September 29, 2013 I'm running the 340 on a Mac in X-Plane 10.22r2I have tried the mini GPS and it seems, as if it does not find waypoints, at least it does not display the coordinates and hence does not calculate headings and distances.I have entered the waypoints in upper case, as well as in lower case. The waypoints I used are definitely present in the Resources/default data/earth_fix.dat file.Any hints?
Goran_M Posted September 29, 2013 Report Posted September 29, 2013 Can you post a screenshot of the GPS as it is so we can see what is being displayed.

JGregory Posted September 29, 2013 Report Posted September 29, 2013 (edited) Cannot reproduce. What airport where you at when you entered the data? Edited September 29, 2013 by JGregory
t5e Posted September 29, 2013 Author Report Posted September 29, 2013 Doesn't work for me, regardless where I use it.In the specific occasion I was airborne near the location displayed in the FROM area.
MdMax Posted September 29, 2013 Report Posted September 29, 2013 What are your regional settings for numbers inside your operating system ? Is your decimal mark a point or a coma ?
t5e Posted September 29, 2013 Author Report Posted September 29, 2013 What are your regional settings for numbers inside your operating system ? Is your decimal mark a point or a coma ?For software using my system locale it's comma. I don't know how the plugin is working.
t5e Posted October 2, 2013 Author Report Posted October 2, 2013 Just wondering, if I am the only user with this issue.I'd also appreciate any advise, how to support the analysis of the issueI'm running X-Plane 10.22r2 64bit on Mac OS 10.8.5
Cameron Posted October 2, 2013 Report Posted October 2, 2013 Just wondering, if I am the only user with this issue.I'd also appreciate any advise, how to support the analysis of the issueI'm running X-Plane 10.22r2 64bit on Mac OS 10.8.5 Thus far you are the only one to say anything, both here or via support e-mail channels. It doesn't mean you're the only one (or it could), but we just haven't heard from anyone else. MdMax may be onto something, but it would be you who needs to first try. What happens if you change the locale from comma to decimal?
t5e Posted October 2, 2013 Author Report Posted October 2, 2013 Hi Cameron, no change after changing number settings to "." for decimal separator.Must be something different.Any way for me to help you debug? Jochen
princerose Posted October 4, 2013 Report Posted October 4, 2013 I too am having the same issues with the mini-gps.
Cameron Posted October 4, 2013 Report Posted October 4, 2013 I too am having the same issues with the mini-gps. Is your operating system set to any specific language or decimal format as well?
princerose Posted October 5, 2013 Report Posted October 5, 2013 No specific language and my decimal point is a dot not a coma.
Cameron Posted October 5, 2013 Report Posted October 5, 2013 No specific language and my decimal point is a dot not a coma. Thanks for the information. Is this on a Mac or Windows machine?
princerose Posted October 10, 2013 Report Posted October 10, 2013 Thanks for the information. Is this on a Mac or Windows machine?Hey Cameron, sorry for answering you so late. My operating system is Windows.
t5e Posted October 12, 2013 Author Report Posted October 12, 2013 Thanks for the information. Is this on a Mac or Windows machine?I'm running Mac OS X 10.8.5
Andy10r Posted December 12, 2013 Report Posted December 12, 2013 I have this problem too guys, its been driving me mad lol. I am using win 8.1,
JGregory Posted December 14, 2013 Report Posted December 14, 2013 At this point I have no answer. This seems to be system related, not X-Plane or Saab related. We will keep looking into this.
Andy10r Posted December 15, 2013 Report Posted December 15, 2013 Thank you Jim. I will try a re-install as well.
wotaskd Posted December 18, 2013 Report Posted December 18, 2013 (edited) Sorry for just guessing here, but I "guess" it won't hurt... Have you checked if you have the latest X-Plane data update (from data.x-plane.com)? If the Saab reads the fix information from there, an outdated one might be the source of the issue.Also, if you are using the UFMC, it typically allows you to overwrite the default XP data files with a new set compiled from the Navigraph ones. If you've done that, I'd try with a fresh set. Edited December 18, 2013 by wotaskd
Andy10r Posted December 18, 2013 Report Posted December 18, 2013 Oooohh I think you're on to something. I am using UFMC. I will try a re-install.
JGregory Posted February 16, 2014 Report Posted February 16, 2014 (edited) We cannot provide a solution if we cannot reproduce the problem. This seems to be a VERY isolated issue and as of today we have been unable to duplicate it on our systems. Edited February 16, 2014 by JGregory
sparkie66 Posted February 16, 2014 Report Posted February 16, 2014 odd, would have been nice to be able to use it, but no big problem. Vor-vor gets a liltle busy when also flying online. So nothing to do with the decimal point / comma settings of the OS?
