AOA calibration

A few questions:
What version of SkyView software are you running?
You have our AOA/Pitot installed, true?
Can you describe, in your own words, what you're doing procedurally during calibration?
Do you receive any error message at all when you you hit save?

I tried it again. Updated to 10.1. Entered the high speed cruise. Entered setup and AOA calibration. Got the AOA graphic. Did the +5-5 pitch oscillations followed by the stall (two stalls this time All is good til I hit save and then the AOA box goes blank again with Cal? above it.
One thought. I haven't calibrated my compass yet because I haven't found a usable Rose in the confines of my fly off area (and the heading has been dead on so far). Could that be related to the problem?

As you increase your AOA as you head towards the stall, does that AOA graphic change (it should - it's showing a sort of uncalibrated output of the pressures)?
Actually, one obvious question - do you have the AOA/Pitot? If not, that's definitely the problem (it's required)
We've been there before. Sometimes it's the simplest thing - gotta check. Folks that aren't too technical have on occasion thought that they can get AOA regardless but it's better if you have the probe. But anyway, what the gauge is doing during the cal process will still be interesting. Taking a video of the PFD during would be interesting. When you stall, what's your IAS? What kind of aircraft is this?
