New Airnav Radarbox

vaca05 · July 03, 2011, 04:56:58 AM

Hi my name is Larry and I'm new to airnav. I just bought a used radar box on ebay and had a few questions. First of all, how do you get rid of the graph bar below the radar screen? I want to extend the radar screen all the way. I think I bought the 2007 version of the radarbox. Can I still perform driver updates? ANy help would be greatly appreciated. I downloaded the manual but it seems a little different than what the manual is showing in terms of button placement.
Thanks,
Larry

Hi Larry,

To get rid of the vertical graph go to map and untick VerticalTracking view.

Upgrade the software by downloading and installing the newest version from http://www.airnavsystems.com/download/anrb/403/ANRB403Setup.exe.

Download and install the newest database from http://www.airnavsystems.com/forum/index.php?topic=6249.0

I dont know the version of window you are using but the drivers are included in the software except if you are using Windows 7 64bit you would ned to download the drivers for it from the support page.

Have fun

Thanks Alan I will do that. Also can you or any one tell me how to get the split screen display? Like the screen shots I see where one half is the radar and the other half has the flight info. Kinda struggling here.
Thanks.

On the interface is show/hide ticked or unticked?

Can you use your photos instead of the ones used from anet?
Thanks

Yes, but you have to resize them to the ratio you get via airliners.net. The file-name must be registration.jpg and if you want to have two pictures: Registration,2.jpg.

Example: D-AIME.jpg & D-AIME,2.jpg

Unfortunately there is the possibility, that this pictures are overwritten by ANRB software. Can't remember the exact details on which occasions that will happen.

The radarbox looks for pictures in your computer first, if these are available ok, if not is then goes back to the server for them. The pictures should be 68 x 16.

Also - if you have pictures other data is not updated

Since there are (more or less) regular database updates available for download, this one could be considered to be a minor problem. Exception: Massive manual Updates to your own (Nav)Database. Anyway this shall be fixed with the next Software update.

I cannot use the database updates as I have far to many local aircraft that still use the ICAO24 of their registration before they were imported.
