Lately I’ve been receiving the following warning message on my 720. Any idea what’s going on and how to resolve? I have the latest update installed.

DHCP was unable to obtain an IP address... etc. etc

That would inidicate a possible issue connecting to your adsb device, and a possible issue with the wifi settings in general. I suggest you flash the firmware on your 720 - here are the instructions: https://www.iflygps.com/OSUpdate

After flashing you will need to reconnect to your ADSB device again.

Re: Windows CE Message

Walter, Turns out my iFly is a 740 rather than a 720. I downloaded the OS update zip file onto the SD card, making sure that it was located on the root rather than being a subfolder. I opened the zip file within the SD card and the files appeared. I placed the SD card in the 740 and powered it up. For some reason though, the OS will not update. It just turns on like normal rather than going into any update mode. Any suggestions? I live in Plano. Can I just run it by TKI and have you guys perform the update? I'm not having much luck.

Thanks, Chad

Re: Windows CE Message

Walter, Also, while flying the other day, twice, I got an audible message from the iFly that said "ADSB Disconnected". I assume this is related to the Windows CE Message I've been getting?

Re: Windows CE Message

Hi Chad, you can certainly bring it by. But not this week! The entire team is at the Sun-n-Fun airshow, we'll be back on the 9th.
