Asked

I have purchased Ultimate Traffic, because Traffic 2005 was Sooooooooooooo Unreal. One of the reason's i purshased UT is because it has TCAS (Something i'v been wanting for a while). I have installed it to the aircrafts using the UT gauge installer but durning flight i turn it on and no airplanes show up on it.

What am i doing wrong?

Normally, TCAS only works within 40 NM. Can you see aircraft closer than that distance from you? 🙂

Yes, ATC said to me that there was a Traffic alert at my 9 o'clock,less then 3 miles, Brought upTCAS andfiddled around with the dials and nothing was showing on the map. The user guid booklet dosn't help either.

Just taking some shots in the dark here.
1. Make sure the transponder is on
2. If you have a button on the panel marked TFC, push it.
