Tail Number issue (Australia)

[ge]

There appears to be a minor problem (in Australia) with RA Aus registered aircraft that are equipped with the Dynon Mode S transponder.
CASA, the FAA equivalent, requires the Tail Number to be entered in the format "R(tail number) eg R7848 in my case.
When this is done I get a warning message (error tail# or similar) in the Message area which does not clear after it is acknowledged.
I suspect this is "normal" for Skyview as it expects a tail number in US format, but is there a way around it?

I spoke to an Airservices ADS-B guru about this not two weeks ago, and the response from them was not to use "Rnnnn" but to use exactly what you put on the flight plan form, in my case, 198519 - I specifically queried the use of Rnnnn as I'd seen a reference to it somewhere and never heard of it before.

If you don't put in a flightplan to Airservices briefing you still use the RA Aus info as KRviator explained

SkyView doesn't enforce a certain format for what is entered as the TAIL NUMBER (other than valid alphanumeric characters, etc.) The error is for something else.

Please post a screen shot of the error message; insert a USB flash drive, and after a few seconds push buttons 2+7 to record a screenshot.

Screen shot of error message attached, but problem has been resolved.
The issue was that I changed the Tail Number (7848 to R7848) on one display and overlooked doing a Network Configuration to update the second display. As soon as the configuration was done the message disappeared!!!
