Re: Pi problems

Hi Colin, thanks for reporting the solution! There are a couple of new locations/participants with a wrong time setting. Please check again the local time of your RPi by typing: date. If it is set wrong, correct by: sudo raspi-config. You can find more help here: https://www.raspberrypi.org/document...

Re: Pi problems

Hello MW0JNI,
check the start script: Is PROG_PATH properly defined? Is "cd $PROG_PATH" done before executing the jarfile?
Go to the directory where the jarfile is and try excuting there: java -jar modesfiltered.jar
Show your start script: head /etc/init.d/modes.sh -n 30

Re: Pi problems

Hello andrewn, Thank you for reporting the error! It's interesting because until know I did not see a modesfiltered.jar stopping without external interaction.

Re: Join the site with Raspberry Pi

No I am not the author. In this case I recommend you to uninstall

Code: Select all

sudo rm /etc/init.d/modes.sh
sudo update-rc.d modes.sh remove
and install modesfiltered.

Re: Help needed to test new reporting tool

What you see on the dump1090 local map is information based on several messages collected over time. Modesfiltered works in a different way.

Re: Help needed to test new reporting tool

Hi Roy, Thanks for reporting! I see 3 cases: “---“, a white block or an altitude. The “---“ means that modesfiltered did not send altitude information to the database. Within 10 to 60 seconds after the first contact (based on hexid) the station did not receive an altitude but reports the fli...

Hello swiss_radar, the advertised program is the modesfiltered which previously has been handled in the topic "Help needed to test new reporting tool". There was a minor change in the program (release 5), but there is no need to update an already running station with release 3 or 4. You ca...
