Andrew Conley Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 Do you have an idea of what the ATC client will look like? I'm assuming it will be based off of the STARS system, correct? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex B. Posted April 7, 2019 Share Posted April 7, 2019 (edited) On 3/25/2019 at 11:10 AM, Jay Williams said: Has it got a name? Well it's a replica of ERAM and VSCS. ERAM is En Route Automation Modernization and in simple terms, it is the radar system used at FAA ARTCCs. VSCS is Voice Switching and Control System and from the controller's perspective, its the touch-screen display that allows manipulation and use of frequencies and ground-to-ground shout, override, and dial lines to communicate with other controllers and facilities (again, this is FAA software/hardware). But most importantly, never trust a controller with their ERAM prefset that has their scope that blueish color. Black is the only way to work.

Network Directors Andrew Heath Posted April 7, 2019 Network Directors Share Posted April 7, 2019 @asb726 You must be real-world guy, I have heard this before about the blue screen from a few guys! While I am not a real-world ATC, for me it really depends on my mood which brightness I roll with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nicola Altafini (1016055) Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 Hello, i'm Nicola from Italy. i'm interested on atc client. i have few questions for you 1)Is it meant have a good level of customization in order to "look like" a different system? i don't mean only on appearance (important) but also on functionality (more important) 2) Is it meant to be multiplatform or windows only? 3) Is it meant to have "Insets" (secondary small windows within the main one)? 4) does it have multiple selectable presets in order to rapdly configures it in different way or select multiple maps at once? 5) any chance to know a little but more about map's format language? are maps fully customizable (colors, lines, shapes, etc)? thanks in advance Nicola Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Network Directors Andrew Heath Posted April 17, 2019 Network Directors Share Posted April 17, 2019 @Nicola Altafini Yes, but not by the end-user. Multi-platform - Windows and iOS Same as Euroscope Kind of. You will have preference sets to adjust your display brightness, text size, etc. but each position will have different maps available to them. Positions are selected through a main menu prior to starting the client. It is looking like we will be utilizing an XML map format, similar to vSTARS and vERAM, but don't hold us to it just yet. There will be conversion tools provided from SCT/SCT2 to the new format. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicola Altafini (1016055) Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 perfect, thank you. fortunately i get already used to xml since it is the format used by ivac2 for ivao (i come from there). good news. ok, and for example, if you are controlling a large, combined, atc unit that covers from twrs to acc, how to move through several gnd layouts? by zoom&pan or by presets?

Hey, Currently the focus is to get all functionalities working in the Windows version. MacOS and Linux clients may be implemented in the distant future, they are not high priority at the moment.
