AV-Simpson,
Nice to finally put a face to the forum at the AOPA fun Fly-In in PRC this weekend. Regarding the IFD100 (when available - ?? end of NOVEMBER for v10.2, etc), as you explained, there will not yet be a way through Avidyne to have our iPad simultaneously receive two WiFi signals- 540's & Stratus (for IFD100 & ForeFlight/FlyQ). Does anybody tech savvy out there know a work around to be able to receive two simultaneous Wifi source signals on the iPad to accomplish this? Maybe be able to use a 2nd network card on iPad, or maybe have one use BlueTooth output to iPad? Tom Wolf

Tom:
I thought from what they said that with 10.2 the 540 can serve as a hotspot or a client. If a client you don't need to have your iPad log on to two hotspots, just the desired hot spot and 540 as client. Or has that flexibility been taken out? |

No, the hotspot/client functionality still exists in 10.2.
The issue with Stratus connectivity and the IFDs is a separate issue.

I corrected the orientation of the images for you. You can right click and save them, and then edit your original post and replace the mis-oriented images.

My Dual Electronics XGHP170 has ADS-B in via Bluetooth. Can I expect the traffic and weather to display on the IFD100? |

More or less what displays on the IFDXXX displays on the IFD100.
I don't believe your portable displays on the XXX and therefore not on the IFD100.

Anyone that knows, won't say; anyone that says, doesn't know.

Speaking of waiting for promised upgrades...
What about the long awaited TAS-"A" software upgrade? When is this to be released? Is this in some fashion tied in with the v10.2 release? Don't shoot the messenger, but there many of us patiently still waiting (3-years now) for the promised and pre-"Paid For" TAS/ADSB display option. Tom Wolf

I am pasting this from my post on IFD Forum - more related to this IFD100 Forum:
Comments:
1. Download and operation with IFD Trainer on iPad and PC work like a charm - Demo or Jepp subscription. Thank you Avidyne. 2. PC Trainer uses previous version files like Waypoints, FP's, Chk-lists, etc. 3. Still no IFD100. Apparently the IFD100 App has already been approved by Apple Store, but is still pending Avidyne release... 4. local Avidyne Dealer yesterday configured my dual IFD540's with v10.2 and SkyTrax100 (MLB100) with v4.1.0, but - tells me still not FAA legal for 540 to receive & display simultaneously both ADSB and TAS traffic despite both now on RS232 streams... Questions: 1. Is there any way to import waypoints & FPs to iPad Trainer? - PC Trainer takes USB thumb drive. 2. Short of the pending TAS "A" software upgrade, is there any way with v10.2/v4.1.0 to display both ADSB and TAS traffic on IFD540 - #4 above? 3. With Avidyne Trainer or panel IFD540, on boot up, is there any reason to not use the Yes selection for WiFi/BT? Tom W. |

I also read that the IFD 100 will only write to the standby freq window; you must push the button on the bezel to move it into the active window. I'm sure advancements will later occur. This is going to be an awesome feature nevertheless.

New member. Having trouble with transferring flight plan from I pad to 440. I understand that flight plans on foreflight can be transferred to 440. Is this true. Also, does any one have the FLTA option on their 44/ipad? Thanks, Fred Willis Scottsdale
