Using a Sentry with Avare and AvareX

[bill]

Has anyone been able to get a Sentry to work with Avare or AvareX?  My Stratux works great but not the Sentry.

Unless Sentry has an "open" GDL90 mode, like some Stratus, I think its in the Foreflight/Jeppesen contracted world only.

"Unlike the Stratus 3, the Sentry family of ADS-B receivers does not feature an "Open ADS-B" or "GDL 90" mode. Sentry products (including Sentry Mini and Sentry Plus) are designed exclusively for the ForeFlight ecosystem and natively output data in ForeFlight's proprietary format"

Here is a reply from foreflight:

Hello Don,
 
Kristina here, thank you for reaching out to us at ForeFlight.
 
None of our Sentry products work with Avare or AvareX, just with ForeFlight.
