Hi dave thanx for the welcome when i tick the box it says the subscription or something has expired

That should be for the network, hardware flights are those that you receive on your kit.

[nicky32]

yes that seems to be ticked it says process hardware flights

[AirNav Support]

It does sound like your drivers aren't installed, check the two pages below

it was working for a few mins  now where it says  network thats red i also dont have anything moving across gthe screen

If your in the UK it may be that the airspace is pretty quiet at the moment being late at night so you may not have much going on.

The network requires a subscription and can be bought from:

the airspace is quiet busy i dont even have the airport names on my radar

If you click on the sign left of the sign with a 95 on it in the menu bar you can choose what you want displayed, such as the name of the airports or just the identifier.

Also advice us on what software you are using? Best to use the latest version, it also comes with a pdf manual which should help you indentify the main functions.

iam using airnav 2009  i clicked the sign with the 95 and still cant get airport names up or any planes across the screen

[AirNav Support]

Download the Pro version from

http://www.airnavsystems.com/download/anrb/403/ANRB403Setup.exe

The airport signs is left of the 95 sign, not the 95 sign, It should give you options on not only airport signs.

Regarding your traffic, checking on the bottom left hand corner the the hardware is connected and is green and also you should see a number next to Msgs/Per second.
