Nico,

RealTraffic provides options for user specified data labels - are these labels read and transmitted by PSXT.

Sorry Steven, I do not understand ...

RealTraffic allows one to set desired data labels for aircraft for the RT data stream - is that information read by PSXT and included with aircraft injected into MSFS by PSXT?

 

Spoiler

 

Oh I see (I no longer fly with the RT app you know...) 

With these "data labels" you can configure what info you will see displayed for each aircraft in the RealTraffic app's Radar Screen. All that data is of course present in the traffic stream that goes to PSXTraffic too, such as origin and destination. 

User specified is a bit confusing, you specify what you would like to see. You do not change or suppress or add any data from/to the RT traffic stream.

Thanks for the information. I suspected the data label settings in RT were only relevant to what is shown on the map in RT.

I don't run RT, other than as I did today to check the label settings since that was something recently added to RT. I run PSXT and don't start RT for MSFS use.

They are, that's what I was trying to say. 

Nico,

in LNM the destination and origin airport of the AI-aircraft data labels of the AIG models ( which are the only ones I use) show

a) when running PSXT with my RT-license to inject AI-Traffic show the IATA code ( for instance HAM) as origin or destination on the label

and

b) when using the AIG Traffic Manager to inject AI-trafficAIG-Traffic manager show the ICAO code (EDDH ) instead.

Would you let me know why is that and let me know how I can change that in PSXT settings?

 

tks

Just to add: I would wish for a) above also to see the ICAO codes for the AI-Aircraft label within LNM, not the IATA ones.

tks

That's by design, you cannot change that.

I cannot speak abour AIG Traffic manager, but PSXT gets the origin and destination data from RT, and they are in IATA codes only.
