ATIS letter

Important

If you are actively controlling with vATIS use the vATIS actions for Stream Deck plugin instead to get real-time ATIS updates on your Stream Deck.

For this action to work TrackAudio must be running and you must be connected for the ATIS letter to update. It can take five minutes or longer for the VATSIM data source to refresh and reflect the latest ATIS letter.

The ATIS letter action shows the current ATIS letter for a station. You can use it to:

  • See the current ATIS for a station
  • See when a new ATIS is published

Basic configuration

To configure the action to show the ATIS for a specific station configure the following settings:

Setting Value Example
Title The title to show on the action, typically the name of the station. KPDX
Callsign The station to display. This must match the ATIS position name in VATSIM. KPDX_ATIS
