Setup instruction SquawkRadar

 

Setup is quite easy, in fact it doesn’t even need to be installed: Just copy the contents of the zip in a folder on your pc and run.

 

Before you can contact the network you have to set a few things:

 

1 – Start SquawkRadar:

 

After startup you will see 3 windows, the main radar screen, the connection window and the little grey “control box”

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

2 – Click Load Sector and choose one of the sector files (in the Squawkwin Folder)

 

Tekstvak: It is getting more alive now. Be free to have a look, the main screen scrolls, drags and zooms, all with the mouse. For more user info see the manual of F1 for help There is a set of 9 sector files in the zip. You can download and use many many more sector files. The format of these files are the same as used in pro-controler and other radar clients. Be sure to set the Comm. Freq. too. Especially when there’s more then one ATC

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

3 – If you click Setup in that control box, a 4th window appears: “Main setup”
4 – Click Network setup:

 

This is the most important setup.

Enter your First and Last name, and the Login and Password you received of your network administrator.

 

As you can see the addresses of the servers are already set for you.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

5 – Now for the TeamSpeak setup:

 

If you want to use TeamSpeak, you need to install this of course.

 

As you can see the TeamSpeak voice url is already set.

This is used by the Pilots in your area so that they can “tune” on your frequency

 

You can change the url a little bit however:

The last 4 caracters of the url is the channel of the TeamSpeak server.

If there are more ATC’s you can change it into ATC2, ATC3 or ATC4. so that every ATC has his own channel.

 

You have to start up TeamSpeak yourself and go to the right server and channel.

The most easy way is to copy the exact url from the network setup (without the /ATC1) and past it in the “quick connect” screen of TeamSpeak. Also enter Nickname (starting with ATC-), Login and Password.

Login and Password are exactly the same as for the network. (all uppercase)

 

 


6 –  Now open (and forward) one single port needed for SquawRadar: 55004

 

Tekstvak: If you don’t open and forward this port, you will definitely have no connection or will be invisible for pilots. Please refer to your hub/switch/router instruction on port forwarding. Needless to say that your firewall has to be set as well

 

 

 

 

 

7 – You are ready now. Click the “Connect” button.

 

If anything is all right you probably will see a message like this:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

You also will see your Licenses & Skills and your ranking.

 

 

 

If you have any questions, be free to put them on the forum.

 

Happy ATC-ing
