@Garmin Tactix 7 AB Pro and Sig Sauer Kilo 10K-ABS HD issues.
Statement of facts/personal observations/issues-
—— Issue at hand ——
When I use my Garmin Tactix 7 AB Pro, here’s my order of operations:
10ks set to BDX External.
Range a target via 10Ks to “wake system up” - sometimes there is a G, 99 % no “G” displayed.
On Tactix 7 - Go to Menu/Sensor and Accessories/Applied Ballistics, where it shows the 10ks as “connected”.
Check 10Ks - G logo present.
On Tactix 7, navigate to AB app.
On 10Ks - Range first target within 4 seconds of opening AB App on Tactix 7.
Result- proper communication of range from 10K to Tactix 7.
Range any subsequent targets after 4 seconds in the app, or not range any targets after 4 seconds in the app-
Result- G is gone after 4 seconds either way, no data sent to the Tactix.
On Tactix - Navigate to Menu/Sensor and Accessories/Applied Ballistics, where it shows the 10ks as “connected”.
Check 10Ks - G logo present, again.
This repeats. I cannot get the Tactix 7 and the 10Ks to remain linked.
Other details-
Both my Tactix 7 (brand new replacement unit from Garmin, got it today) and my 10Ks are on current firmware and BT software versions. I had it replaced by Garmin after reading a few places that this was the only thing that helped other who had issues with similar (not exactly the same) issues. The issue I describe here was going on with the original Tactix 7 I had as well.
Both Tactix and 10Ks have been reset to factory, upgraded, disconnected, “forgot”, and reconnected multiple times. Problem persists.
10K’s hold connection with my Garmin 901 perfectly, and work great for extended periods of time.
10Ks hold connection to my
@Kestrel Ballistics 5700Elite perfectly, and work great for extend periods of time. This is most likely due to the 2 second refresh instructions Kestrel provided, as prior to that, the link was not reliable.
This is maddening, so any input on this would be greatly appreciated.
