can you explain the fa-flightawarelinks Enable (/disable) FA links in the webinterface
Which way should I have it set … and why … any pros/cons ?

364

There is no downside to enabling them :slight_smile:

365

ok I find flightawareLinks in defaults.js and script.js but not in config.js

366

You just add the setting to config.js, that’s what you can do with everything you find in defaults.js
For new installs it’s already present, i’ll add a note for existing users.

Either do it manually or use this command:

echo 'flightawareLinks = true;' | sudo tee -a /usr/local/share/tar1090/html/config.js

Quick question: Where does the flight origin and destination come from?
This flight is documented as HAM - FRA, but the origin is STR. That’s also shown on the FA page:

Comes from http://pi:30053

369

So, incorrect information from the transponder or wrong decoding?

370

Just visit the page on your pi, i don’t put http on stuff if it’s just data.

Anyway such data is not transmitted via ADS-B.

On this port my planefinder client is running. Anyways, not mission critical.

372

As i said that’s where the data is coming from, that webpage you see on that port.
No clue where the data for that client comes from exactly, not my problem :wink:

373

@wiedehopf Do you think it’s possible to add that to your interface ?

Maximum range plot

Thanks.

374

Some day perhaps, probably not though.

375

Install ModeSMixer2 on RPi. It has a maximum range plot.

Automated Installation of ModeSMixer2 & ModeSDeco2 on RPi

You can view the ModeSMixer2’s map with maximum range plot in your browser at following address:

IP-of-Pi:8787

Thanks for ModeSMixe2, i know it, and i have always tested.
But i think it will be better to have this function inside Dump1090-FA, rather than needing to install additional software.

377

have a look at that…item 8

378

Yes I saw it, this is the link that I put in my message, but if I add it on my side it will be erased with each update of Dump1090-fa.

I’ll wait for this feature to be added later :wink:

379

You can add it as a separate folder.

sudo nano /etc/lighttpd/conf-enabled/88-al.conf

paste this:

#lighttpd configuration for alkissack interface

alias.url += (
  "/al/data/" => "/run/dump1090-fa/",
  "/al/" => "/usr/local/share/alkissack/public_html/",
)

# redirect the slash-less URL
url.redirect += (
  "^/al$" => "/al/"
)

Ctrl-O and enter to save, Ctrl-X to exit

sudo systemctl restart lighttpd
sudo git clone https://github.com/alkissack/Dump1090-OpenLayers3-html.git /usr/local/share/alkissack/

Interface will be available at

http://<address>/al

Layout has changed a bit, let me know if it’s working for you.

Making it user adjustable which columns the table on the right has, is on top of my list.
