I never worked with a company that has been so willing to spend time trying to solve my problem. Shane, Brian, and Sarah have collectively spent hours trying to figure out my data connection issues. While we still are working on the problem, I am really hoping the problem is not with the installation of my NavWorx ADS600-B. They have been extremely helpful with a number of suggestions and I'm sure with help from Navworx, we will get this sorted out. Again, thanks to Adventure Pilot in being so free with their time and effort to help me get my Samsung Tab Pro to communicate with the NavWorx ADS-B unit.

After a great deal of time with the folks at NavWorx and iFly, the problem turned out to be a loose mulipin connector. The multipin connector to the NavWorx ADS600-B is held on by a slide lock. Because I mounted the ADS600-B so that I could not view the connection properly, I did not realize that only 1 side of the slide lock was engaged and as a result, several pins on one end of the connector were not fully engaged. As a result, some of the data being sent to my Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro tablet was missing. The partial data loss was confusing because there was no indication from the ADS600-B that anything was wrong. Since discovering the problem, I have rotated the unit 180 degrees so that the multipin connector is visible and it is possible to pull on the connector to make sure it is secure. I am providing the above info so that other NavWorx users do not repeat my mistake. Since then, I have done several flights and am totally pleased with the traffic and weather data that I see on my tablet.
