Terrain Awarness

I you go to your Maps Made Easy “Settings”

Do you see a line in there that simply says “Access Password”

I’m having a hell of a time getting my “Terrain Awareness” to function.

Not sure if I ever bought it, although I am quite sure I did.

In any case the instructions are as follows, however I don’t see anything that says “Access Password”

Data Access Setup

In order to be able to access the terrain data with Map Pilot, a valid Maps Made Easy Access Password must be entered in the settings. Think of an Access Password as a password that allows the app to download the data. Once terrain data is downloaded for an area it is available for offline flight planning.

To get the Access Password you will need a Maps Made Easy account. Once you are logged in to your Maps Made Easy account, go to https://www.mapsmadeeasy.com/profile on your mobile device and copy the value in the "Access Password for 3rd Party Applications" box so you can paste it into the Map Pilot settings box labeled "Access Password".

If the "Access Password for 3rd Party Applications" entry is blank on the Maps Made Easy page, push the "Request New Password" button to get one. If at any time you need to change your password to keep it secure you can push the "Request New Password" button again to get a new one.

Starting in version 3.1 we got rid of the whole copy-paste of your Access Password process. Now you just have to log into Maps Made Easy at the prompt. If your Access Password is empty in your Map Pilot settings that means you haven't logged in yet.
