Victor’s Vectors: How to Update Aviation Databases
It’s that time of the month again and we have been swamped with calls from customers needing assistance updating the databases for their GPS units. FlyGarmin.com has been getting a large amount of praise, but some customers have had some issues setting up their new account. One common issue is the installation of the Garmin Communicator Plugin on your computer, which is required for automatic downloads from flyGarmin and is one of the advanced features that makes flyGarmin so user friendly. One problem I’ve been hearing on a regular basis is that the plugin is not being detected properly on the test page. This can often be caused because of the settings of the browser that you are using. When on the test page, look out for an information bar at the top of the page that requires your input to run an Active X control that the plugin utilizes. After clicking on the “Run ActiveX Control”, the test page will refresh and you should see it verify that the plugin is installed and up to date. Also on the test page, it’s important to have your GPS or data card connected to the computer to verify that the test page is communicating with it as well. With the Communicator Plugin installed and communicating properly, flyGarmin becomes a useful tool that is easy to use during that time of the month.
