This facility makes PlanePlotter an ideal front end for other ACARS software. You can access ACARS, HFDL and Mode-S messages received by PlanePlotter using DDE.PlanePlotter can generate visible and audible alerts on detection of a specified registration, flight number or ADS identifier, on detection of any new aircraft, or on detection of an aircraft whose position is inside a user-defined Alert zone polygon.PlanePlotter can display waypoints, tracks or routes over the current chart using data from a user-defined GPX format file.PlanePlotter can drive a passive antenna switch and display the direction (QDM) of any aircraft voice transmission.PlanePlotter adds value by calculating course and heading from successive reports from the same aircraft and plotting the predicted position between reports (right).

These include embedded position reports, AMDAR reports, ADS reports, HFDL reports and others. PlanePlotter plots aircraft positions, altitudes and times decoded from the message traffic that it receives. PlanePlotter archives all the digital data that it receives and decodes, to a log file. PlanePlotter shows a table display of messages received and decoded from live aircraft transmissions. Using PlanePlotter, you can see a radar-like display of all those aircraft around you that are transmitting the appropriate digital messages. PlanePlotter receives and decodes live digital position reports from aircraft and plots them on a chart.
