why Expedition don´t read HEADING, TWD
Hi friends
My expedition don´t read HEADING and TWD from H5000, but I can see TWS, TWA.
When I open Expedition a massage is show about VARIATION MODEL and the PC clock.
I don´t know if this has some relation.
I update the model and de PC time is correct
Plaese Help
Thank a lot

That may cause it. Exp needs a valid magnetic model and if you are still getting that warning, you haven't updated the model. Which version of Exp are you using

Yes, Nick. This could be the problem.
I am using v10.11.11
I load a new WMM.cof from the web site but no results
Thanks

You have to copy it over the old one.
Else, the easy solution is to update to Expedition 11.

Re: why Expedition don´t read HEADING, TWD
Expedition 11 uses the H5000 magnetic variation instead of the world magnetic model when reading twd etc from H5000.
This was initially to resolve a bug in Vulcan, but is probably a better solution in this particular case.
