View Full Version : XC soar not logging igc file

last 2 flights I've had with the latest version of XC Soar (runs on
the memory card) have not been logged properly for some reason. When I
try to upload to OLC it says it is an invalid file.

Also am not able to replay the file on the PDA using the flight replay
function. The file extension is not showing up as a .igc file!

Any ideas for what the problem may be!!!

Luckily I did set my GPS to log todays flight and that was able to be
converted and uploaded.

Thanks,
Brad

have you turned the logger on in the setup menu?

Hi John,

I found the reason why: in the setup menu for the logger config I
changed the logger I.D. from the original (default) BLANK setting to
my call sign which is AK. I went thru and check all my logged flights
up to when I was having problems and noticed the .igc name had changed
so I figured that must be the problem, and it was.

Now, the other issue I am dealing with is getting the program to save
the changes I make to a custom named profile. For some reason none of
the changes seem to hold when I restart the program and select
my_profile.prf

Cheers,
Brad
