I have been using avare for almost 2 years with my uavionix echouat with no problems. Yesterday it stopped displaying adsb traffic. My echo uat seems to be performing nominally with the config tool receiving data and reporting no errors. I'm running on a Google pixel 4 phone with the latest Android 12. I have yet to try some other efis app but I wonder if this seems to coincide with the latest AVR update? Any thoughts or troubleshooting steps anyone can think of?

Thanks!

Gabe

If you are now running version 10.1.0 (it was updated last weekend) you will need to go to the IO tab to get it working.  With my Stratux I have to now select the IO tab, Wifi option and select listen.  An additional step that wasn't required before.

What??? What is happening here? Due wx I have not flown in some days so did not notice this.  If in fact different/new procedures are required to access ADSB (StratuX, in my case) why wasn't a heads up given to users. I wouldn't have known this and on my next flight would have wasted time and effort in frustration trying to get my ADSB up and working while burning up time and fuel in the run up area (as mentioned by another poster who lost his flight trying to deal with this).  Likely unsuccessfully and having to fly without it. 

I just now went to IO as mentioned above, tools is gone,  and I see what the poster is talking about. I wouldn't have gone there otherwise. I see 4000 selected in a box, another box labeled listen---is this supposed to be checked? or something, a save button (check it?) and another button marked out.bin. No idea what that is...it sure would have been nice to get some info on changes required to use ADSB, if this is what is occurring, in order to properly access and use ADSB on various devices. And which buttons are supposed to be checked or whatever....what are the procedures.

I am not sure if this is a bug that only affects a few as there are only a couple of posts or if this is a big change that affects all users but IMHO this amounts to a safety issue and some sort of heads up should have been given if in fact ADSB would not have been accessible with the 'usual' procedures.

Maybe I missed some msgs or some heads up from Avare. Often problems turn out to be something I messed up, perhaps this is the case here. I won't fly for a few days so I haven't been able to check this out in the acft but I can not understand a change like this without some sort of notification to users---it doesn't seem like the Avare I know.

Wow, thanks for this. Unfortunately when I click on the IO tab, Avare just crashes instantly :(
