Acars Map

phpVMS Legacy Support (v2/v5)

Hey Guys,

I have done some searching and couldn’t find if anyone else has had this problem

On our ACARS map the “Status” and the “Distance/Time Remaing” information is not displaying correctly. I thought it was working at one time…

It always show the status as “enroute” and the D/TR as “0”

I have went back to the original template and copied it back over to the skins folder to start from scratch, and it still does not work properly. I go to the VA Central page and our info

is correct on their live map, so I know the information being sent is correct, just not on our page…any suggestions??

Thanks

WWhat acars are you using and are you on free hosting or paid hosting?

3

We are using XACARS and Fivedev hosting (paid)

I know the info is being sent b/c it shows up on VA Central’s Live Map

has anyone else had this problem…or found a solution for it? :confused:

with xacars there is no data off time and distance use kacars instead

yea,

i would love to use kacars, but we are an xplane exclusive VA, so our only option is XACARS

also, when we are testing flights, it shows up on the VA Central Live Map, and show the distance/time and status there, so i know it works

with xacars, and it use to work before, just not now, and i am having a hard time figuring it out…

i.e.

here is an example of the same flight at the same time, the first picture is of our live map on our site, the second is from va central’s live map, giving the infomation i am missing, using the same acars system
