How did you view that graph? I’m interested to see what mine is doing as its very up and down.
Thanks,
Tom
Install graphs by following command:
sudo bash -c "$(wget -q -O - https://raw.githubusercontent.com/wiedehopf/graphs1090/master/install.sh)"
After installation view graphs in browser at address:
ip-of-pi/graphs1090/

Thought I would install them for giggles. How long till they update, Shall I wait a day or so ?
Inittially after installation you may have to wait 10 minutes to graphs to build. Once built,it keeps on auto updating every 10 minutes or so.
If at anytime vyou want auto update to start immediately, issue this command:
sudo /usr/share/graphs1090/graphs1090.sh 24h
EDIT: Better after installation wait for say 24 hrs and then check what has happend to gain’s graph during the last 24 hrs.
Thanks works great.
Currently gain is setting at 50. So Ill wait 24hrs to see what it does.

been at 50 the whole 24 hours. Normally I ran it a lot lower. Do I need to set the parameters also ?

Had the same. Eventually I reverted back to manual gain of 27.
ADAPTIVE_DYNAMIC_RANGE with and without ADAPTIVE_BURST
Ran a 24 hour test on two nearly identical sites both with ADAPTIVE_DYNAMIC_RANGE enabled and one with ADAPTIVE_BURST enabled.
Same location, antennas mounted in the attic at the peak, roughly 24" apart from each other.
Based on the stats it seems ADAPTIVE_DYNAMIC_RANGE without ADAPTIVE_BURST performs better.

Hi, I have the 7.2 image, orange flight stick and a 3 pole cavity filter running on a Pi4. Gain is 40, ADR is off. My site is close to the approach/departure paths of parallel runways.
I am interested in increasing my ranking score of ADSB+MLAT+Other ‘seen’, and don’t care about number of positions.
My (mis) interpretation of the graphs below is:
loud signals (red) at 11% could be less = reduce gain?
three quarters of aircraft are above the noise = good?
tracks with a single message (weak reception?) are about double the tracks with >1 message = increase gain?
noise goes down during curfew = less cell phone use?
time to try ADR with say a gain range of 30-49?
Any corrections/recommendations to improve rank appreciated. Thanks:
Hi my setup is piaware image 7.2, upgraded from 5.0, orange flight stick. I have added these lines in piaware-config.txt but gain is not changing much:
adaptive-dynamic-range yes # updated by fa_piaware_config
adaptive-min-gain 30
adaptive-max-gain 49
Any thoughts please?
It does check and if needed inputs small variations ( the little spikes upward) but overall it seems that 49 is the seting the system determines correctly for your setup.
