What this means is that the strongest precipitation return *regardless of altitude* is being shown. ASN's map view provides something akin to what's known as a "radar summary" in meteorology terms.Detail mode has a maximum range of 90 nm - if you set a larger range than 90, then by definition you are not in detail mode: If you see the type of display show below, you are not in detail mode. This is what the detail mode looks like, you should see a checkmark next to the Detail button and the radar imagery should look like this: When the ASN map is outside of the Detail mode range, it's showing more generic images that will not necessarily match up with what you see in the sim. Firstly, ASN's map must be in the "Detail" mode for any correlation with the radar in the airplane to be valid.If you are having issues with the radar and these entries or files are present, trying removing them. The LUA script files (located in FSX\Modules) are: The FSUIPC4.ini (located in FSX\Modules) entries are: (it essentially acts as a frontend/passthrough for SimConnect) This can be problematic because ASN does not support sending data to two different radar addons at once. This document describes FSUIPC4.ini settings and LUA scripts that can be used to create ASN radar displays in other addons that are programmed using FSUIPC instead of SimConnect. There is a document in the FSX\Modules\FSUIPC Documents folder called "ASN WX Radar facilities in FSUIPC4.pdf.


ASN, much like the 777 itself, uses SimConnect and does not require FSUIPC.

Try this if you're having trouble - most likely this will occur on systems where FSX is installed to the default C:\Program Files (x86) folder instead of it's own custom folder like C:\FSX that's outside of the Windows Vista/7/8 read/write permissions protections placed on the folder.

Users have reported to us that they had to run ASN with the right click menu "Run as administrator" command to get the module to install properly.If you believe your file is corrupted, submit it to us in a support ticket and we'll fix it for you if necessary. If the dll.xml file is missing this entry or the file is corrupted by formatting errors (a common issue unfortunately), then the radar will not function.

FSX itself should be closed before you run ASN for this to occur properly.ĪS Connect's dll.xml should look like this: Normally this should happen automatically the first time you run ASN.
