Gary, That stumped me also. I could not fathom how the simulator data was being displayed... But,, I few times when the page updated I did see the correct data in the gauges for maybe 2-3 seconds and then it went to the simulator data.... I did NOT notice if it said Observerip or Simulator down the bottom of the page. Thanks for your help. Jerry
