If you are a Master User the option "Allow Remote Mlat" is in the Options.I/O settings dialog in the Input section. You can use mlat without a virtual radar, so when you make an mlat request it is sent across the network. Regarding remote mlat, it's quite simple. Some of the features included in later versions of PP were at my suggestion. I DO NOT have "SBS1 Raw Data" box in IO Settings checked and I have been a Master User since before it was generally available and mlat some ten to twenty US mil aircraft most days.
I had read on the PP forum that you only needed to pay one sub to activate MLAT on more than one PC - just like the way that with PP you can get extra activation codes for additional PC's using the standard PP functions.Īnyway, a small fee to pay for the extra functionality and I like to support innovation. There is no way of activating MLAT on more that one PC without going through this process on each PC - other than emailing Bev and appealing to his better nature.īev did activate my 3rd PC and set the expiry date of the other 2 as the date of the latest subscription, but he didn't offer a refund for my second subscription as I thought that he might.
This happens for every PC when the 21 day trial expires. This is the confusing bit! You then click on the 21 day trial application again and it takes you go to a page that says that it will cost 12 Euros(?) to activate. After 21 days, when you try to MLAT, you get a message in PP to say that your 21 days has expired PS Must play further with making screenshots across dual monitors.
Impressed so far - will play with further more localised maps. I've not touched anything yet - simply entered home location (brilliantly simply via installation process), copied across a relevant map and clicked on Process/Start. Is this simply because I've not registered yet - or do I have to tinker with settings? Only problem I have, so far, is that when I click on a plane icon on the planeplotter screen, it says no-reg. Looks good - have zoomed-in map of the midlands running on ANRB on my 22" external monitor and a general overview of the same planes (locally received) on Planespotter running on laptop - with a larger (more detailed map of the UK). So struggled to find the sub directory to copy a map to.Įventually copied over a map of the UK to the correct subdirectory.
Hate Windows Vista with a passion - thought I'd installed it into a root directory rather than under Program Files. On a more basic level I got Planeplotter up and running within an hour this evening. Getting confused with the technical banter between Allocator and Tarbat (about MLAT)!
