Title: AirNav RadarBox 2010 - 3.12 Beta - Released
Post by: AirNav Development on November 27, 2009, 09:38:39 PM
We have just finished the work and testing on the pending issues reported on the previous beta version of AirNav RadarBox. One more time we are not releasing a full installer but just the changed .exe.

The only change between V3.12 and V3.11 is the correction of the crash on exit problem.
All the other new features/corrections are mentioned on the V3.11 forum post.

1- Download the new V3.12 executable file from:
http://www.airnavsystems.com/download/anrb/312Beta/anrb.exe

2- Copy it to your AirNav RadarBox folder, overwriting the existing file.

Please note that this is still a beta so errors may still exist and should be reported on this thread or to our support team at [email protected]

Heh, heh guys, deleted ANRB 3.11 exe, downloaded and Cut & Pasted 3.12 exe, up and running!!   For a total technonumpty, one heck of an achievement - network flights fine, but nothing on hardware flights, RB going back to W&SPLC tomorrow or Monday.

Just installed v3.12 (only to use latest version - I had no crash on exit problems on v3.11 or any previous version).

However since recreating my Polar Diagram recently on v3.11b (and not using the network since) it has a spike going deep down into France!

Any explanation?

Cheers
Chris

Aerotower: not sure what happened to your system anyway the only change between previous versions and this one was the error msg appearing when the application closes, nothing more new since V3.11.

Pinza: delete and re-create your Polar Diagram.

Is deleted and rebuilding as I write.

Thanks for your continuing beta updates and the support of members who understand exactly what a 'beta' version means...

Many thanks

You can use that full install but don't forget to copy the latest exe overwriting the installation .exe file.

hi airnav.
Thanks for the new beta,  and as Pinza says we understand exactly what a 'beta' version means,  and that you want to get it 100% correct before final release.
thanks again airnav.

AirNav,

I am sorry to say that v3.12Beta has not stopped the close down fault on my Windows Vista PC.

I run RadarBox on both an XP desktop (on which v3.12 does now close down properly) and on a Vista laptop which is still getting the error message and any changes I have made are not saved. If I can give any more information please ask.

MIKE

Start v3.12 and go the Help menu, About. Report us what is the date of the exe you are using. Also pls send us a screen shot of the error msgs that you are seeing.

Downloaded new exe file about 30 mins ago. Closed down 3 times and always been clean close down - no errors.

I am running Vista 32bit

AirNav

The details are Software version = V.3.12 Date 2009/11/28 14:53
Firmware version = 1.01.0

There appears to be a difference depending on whether one uses the File/Exit or the Top right Red X

When using the File/exit a box labelled "Are you sure you want to exit AirNav RadarBox 2010-312 Beta" Yes/No using this and it closes OK

When using the Top Right Red X there is no message displayed until a box appears that states  "AirNav RadrBox has stopped working. This changes automatically within a second or two to read as per attached file.

I will try and remember to use the File/Exit method to close but both methods work properly on the XP machine - it is only the Vista PC that has this Red X problem.

Just tried your method with shutting down with the red x.

Still the same here - clean shut down. I am not running network though, so try shutting down without network flights, see if it makes any difference.

Andy,

Did not make any difference whether I had internet on or off, still get the error.

Tried the two methods here, Vista 32bit, both close without any error dialog or anything showing in the debugger window.

I am at present not using the network but it's never made any difference here before now.

I'm getting the same messages when I shut down v3.12, whichever method I use to shut down.

Hi Chris,

This ones been around since V2.1 and is tied in to Atlantic ATP's that are not ADSB but somehow give out spurious position data randomly. If I reset my polar diagram I'll get the spike back in exactly the same place within a couple of days.

I have3 got the program, have run it but at the end it gives no clue as to what I do with the file Save AS? I can find no record of it saving any files with data on my PC? Any ideas.

Hi John (EGNXR),

<This ones been around since V2.1 and is tied in to Atlantic ATP's that are not ADSB but somehow give out spurious position data randomly. If I reset my polar diagram I'll get the spike back in exactly the same place within a couple of days.>

Very interesting and useful reply - indeed your polar diagram spike seems to be in the same direction as the one I posted.

Would appear to be an Atlantic ATP issue rather than an AirNav RB problem, so won't pursue it on this thread.

My newly recreated Polar Diagram is pretty much the same as my old one (without the silly spike as I must have avoided receiving dodgy data from an Atlantic ATP).

However, will turn that facilty off for now - its useful for seeing my recent range for current setup - but once I know that, I don't need to use it until I move or upgrade antenna.

Many thanks
Chris

Having said that, I will pursue it:

The Atlantic ATPs seem to be the root cause of this problem. They are non ADS-B aircraft but transmitting spurious/dodgy/wrong positional data.

For them to be appearing on my RB they must be Mode-S fitted?

Ideally (in next release?) AirNav could 'ban' these 'rogue' aircraft from importing the positional data.

If not, possibly an option for a user to select that 'locally' (on their own computer) for specific rogue aircraft?

Title: Error message on shutdown
Post by: viking9 on November 30, 2009, 05:43:52 PM
Hi All, further to my post regarding ANRB giving an error message on shutdown;

On Saturday 28th Andre Brandao of AirNav emailed me a debugger to run. Unfortunately ANRB behaved itself when the debugger was running but continued to give an error message on shutdown when the debugger was off.

I informed Andre of this on Sunday and this morning, at 01:24 he sent me a new .exe file which I installed. I'm delighted to report that it has solved the problem.

I have been critical of AirNav in the past when I thought they deserved it, but I must give them great credit for solving this problem in such a short time.

Well done Andre and all the development team.

Tom

Hi Viking9
I have just read your post regarding the shutdown error. I have a shutdown error since dowloading the latest versio. I am running Vista ultimate.

It is not a great problem to me, just a little bit of a pain. The fixes far outway the shutdown problem.

Take a look at the screen grabs. Is this what you had?

Great to hear you got sent a fix Viking9. I also sent AirnAv a debug file showing the fault but I have not been sent a fix for the problem.
Title: Re: AirNav RadarBox 2010 - 3.12 Beta - Released
Post by: Fenris on December 01, 2009, 12:27:34 PM
I emailed Airnav since the original fix that went into 3.12 stopped working (it worked for a day or two) and Andre sent me an updated exe (probably the same as Tom was sent) which fixes it for me again.

You could PM me....

I would have thought that it would have been more sensible for the updated exe from Andre to be put out on general release instead of piecemeal as I am sure several people (including myself) are affected by this problem.
