First, thanks for your excellent LK8000 software.

I use LK8000 on my Samsung phone and all is well. Occasionally my phone restarts so I also carry a Lenovo tablet to capture a backup IGC log file when attempting record flights. For some reason, the IGC files are no longer being created on the tablet (they were created a month ago). The tablet only records GPS altitude and this is adequate for the XCcontest.

Does anyone have a suggestion for why the IGC log is not created? What settings are used to control creation of the log file? What are the conditions for detecting takeoff and landing and how does this relate to creating the log file?

Thanks in advance for assistance,
Peter Evans

Do you have LK8000 aircraft setup as Paraglider/ Hang glider?

I made these tutorial for paragliding setup: https://parapent1sta.blogspot.pt

parapenT1sta, thanks for your reply.

I have both devices set with the AIRCRAFT SETUP > CATEGORY set to PARAGLIDER/HANGGLIDER

And your configuration page is very useful.

Is there a way to check if the log is being created without flying e.g. driving or in simulate mode?

As far I know the only thing you can know, is the profile that was loaded by LK8000 when it's opened. This information is in Runtime.log file.
