Thanks!
May add the option to quantum
It works well in ATAK with the ACCEL Bluetooth adapter, it's BLE. Hopefully it will play nice with the AB plugin, I sent you an email last week to see if I could get access.

Does the kilo10k gen 2 send ranges to the AB Quantim app when connected via Bluetooth? Mine does not.
Yes, it should. Make sure you are in AB External mode to use it with a Garmin, or AB Internal mode to use it with the Quantum App on the range finder.
I did what you said here. The response I got from AB said it's a Garmin problem. I contacted Garmin and they said it's a Sig problem. It's not a Sig problem because I got AB Quantum to receive the range, inclination, and azmuth.
Correct, because AB Quantum is receiving all of the data, that means the other device team needs to know what is going on.I did what you said here.

Hello to everyone,
I’m use for a long time both Garmin 901 and Kestrel Elite, separately for hunting, recently I used them both connect one with each other in a LR shooting competition. I have on my Garmin 901 ballistic the latest fw 2.12, I successfully connect them both, and they are working very nice.
The Garmin receive the environment from Kestrel every ~40 seconds , and internal AB it corrects the wind solution , but during the usage I observed 2 problems, with what I want to help me if you encountered them in the past:
- after approx 10-12 minutes, Kestrel and Garmin lost their connection , and I have to go in the Garmin menu to reconnect them, is there any menu where I can control this connection time ( in Kestrel I have a working time set for 15 minute)
- when I first start my Garmin in the day and connect with Kestrel, after a few minutes (4-5) it restarts by his own, after that I need the reconnect with my Kestrel ( which is quite quick, accessing Connect menu in Garmin), after a few restarts (2-3) it stays on and it’s ok, but it’s disconnects from 10-12 minutes, like a said early
Many thanks for your responses,
Dragoș

This needs to go out to the companies, so they can take a look.

Recording this glitch here for reference. I did submit this to Garmin chat support, didn't see a support email, and asked them to create a ticket. The below seems to be a pretty specific glitch, but otherwise my unit is doing everything I want, specifically connecting to Vector-X and generating a target card with wind set to true wind direction and relaying DOF's/inclinations for targets.
To Garmin:
Hi there,
I am noticing when I put the 901 AB device into true wind direction mode, and then go from the main screen to the target card screen and choose quick edit, the wind values will change a little bit. When I back out to the main screen my wind direction will have changed in the down direction a couple of degrees. Say from 270 to 268. I can go back and forth through this sequence and it will keep deducting from the wind direction value. At one point while in quick edit mode on the target card screen with T1 (seems to only be T1) selected I could rotate the device and watch the W1/W2 values change. I was inside at this point, but believed the compass to be grabbing wind. However the values didn't make sense for the direction pointed. I went outside to confirm/replicate, but it did not do it any more. I put the wind mode back into relative to DOF mode and it does not drift when going back and forth from the target card. Pretty specific glitch. Please create a ticket. Thx
