Got both of my IFD-440s' updated to 10.2... here are a list of bugs that I have found so far:

IFD100 runs on my iPad Pro...
IFD100 does not appear to show any traffic or weather... is that the intent? nor is it on the map page or SVS page
trying to rubber band on the IFD100 creates paths that are inconsistent between the IFD and the iPad
I get several "heading lost" errors
I cannot get the map view out of "north up" mode... it seems stuck there...

FYI, I have one IFD440 that has both BT and WiFi enabled... wondering if there are collision issues with both up?

OH... and the rubber banded new waypoint does not appear to have a "name" entered into it when rubberbanding occurs on the IFD100... the IFD creates the name just fine.

I'd turn off bluetooth and wifi on the #2 to start.

Yep... thanks Lance... I did actually have that disabled (IFD-2)... did not seem to make a difference.

Has anyone else had success in switching the map view to "heading up" vs. "north up"? iPad Pro? its odd that mine wont.. and I have "Heading up" in my configuration for IFD100.

Also, does anyone see traffic in their IFD100? I never see it there (even when it's on the IFDs...)

Thanks again,

Doug

When you say heading up in your configuration do you mean in the SYS page. In another thread it was noted that to change the display heading you would have to touch into the heading box at the top of the screen.

Sorry... I'll clarify... heading up in the map page (not svs page)... for some reason, I cannot get my map display to be anything other than the "north up" setting... and that's despite the fact that I have my IFD100's configuration setting set to "Heading up".

Strange!

The traffic should display on the IFD 100 but I am told that is a bug that will be correctly shortly. There will be a new release in the app store of the IFD 100 that should correct this.

Doug, I didn't mean SVS but SYS. did you try to touch the heading box at the top of your map page.

you mean the heading box on the top of the map page on the ipad? No... I did not realize that was a way to toggle modes.. I'll give that a try! Thanks for the pointer!

I didn't try it myself but I read it somewhere on the forum.

Yep..touching the heading box on map toggles back and fort...sounds logical now!
