    Default Unidentified AC tag

    Hello,

    During the solo APP sessions in Geneva. I've encountered several aircraft without the full tag (only shows speed and altitude/level). I was unable to assume the tfc, the only option available was "correlate" which I assume has nothing to do with my position. I was quite frustrated as it makes me confused between the tfc inside my area of responsibility and those who weren't. When I use the flight strip (F6 Key), it shows the AC is "Unidentified". Did I miss something during the APP lesson? Thanks for your help.

    Kind regards,
    Ky

    Hello Ky

    It looks like you are using the professional mode of Euroscope, which activates the correlation feature.

    Go to the "General Settings", Page1 on the bottom: "Correlation Mode" and change it to Easy.
    Then all aircrafts will be correlated without any action required from your side.

    Regards

    The Professional Mode of EuroScope is activated by default since the AIRAC 2001 release as announced in this forum. For correlation, a unique squawk code is required. As soon as the pilot has set such a code, the corresponding label will be shown with the option to assume the tag. You may use the correlation function to create the link between a target and a flight plan manually. For an uncorrelated traffic approaching your area, you may use the flight plan list to determine what flight this could be and to send him a "contact me" message.
