Configure Syride Devices
Syride shares tracking data through SafeSky and the OGN network. Devices such as the Nav XL and Evolution support tracking. To use enable tracking in your Syride account:
By default Syride devices will show up as a Hang Glider with a OGN hex code. To change this, add the device through the add OGN page.
Find your OGN hex code
The easiest option is to:
- Activate your device.
- Find it on the PureTrack Map. You'll show up as a random 6 digit code.
- Click on your icon either in the map, or on the left hand side legend.
-
Click the source button labelled "OGN" to get your hex code.
Configure OGN
There are two methods to configure OGN, depending if you have a registered aircraft.
Configure OGN for Registered Aircraft
Applies to:
- Most Gliders
- GA Aircraft
- Microlights with registration
Before going further, ensure your device hex code matches your aircraft ICAO ADSB code, if possible.
Configure the following two databases to match your hex code for each aircraft:
PureTrack will import the OGN database each day, or view the Add OGN page to initiate an import manually.
Configure OGN for Anything Else
OGN doesn't have a database for anything except registered aircraft, but you can add your own custom label, icon and colour in PureTrack.
Applies to:
- Paragliders
- Hang Gliders
- People (i.e. you want to just put a name on the map)
- Vehicles
- Any other aircraft without a registration
