EFB Configuration

Stratux Europe Edition supports two different protocols to connect to EFBs: GDL90 and FLARM-NMEA. Different EFBs have different qualities in their implementation. This page is intended to provide experiences with different EFBs and how they need to be configured to work as good as possible with Stratux Europe Edition. Other configurations are possible, this is just what experience has shown to work best. These settings apply as of 1.5b2-eu010.

SkyDemon, using FLARM-NMEA protocol

Stratux config

• SkyDemon disconnect workaround - enable
• IP Address - 192.168.1.1

SkyDemon config (as of SkyDemon version 3.15.3)

• Settings / Third-Party Devices enable "FLARM Devices / FLARM with Air Connect" or "FLARM Devices / Air Avionics AT-1"
• Go Flying / Use FLARM with Air Connect

SkyDemon, using GDL90 protocol

• less recommended as FLARM-NMEA has better support for bearingless targets

Stratux config

• GDL90: Use MSL instead of HAE - disable
• SkyDemon disconnect workaround - enable
