Troubleshooting tips:

• Double-check that you copied the files required for DCS data export to their correct locations:
  Mods\Services\MovingMap and Scripts\Hooks with all files in them go to your Saved Games folder on your DCS computer, usually found at C:\Users\YourUserName\Saved Games\DCS\ for the stable version or to C:\Users\YourUserName\Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\ for DCS openbeta.
   
• Make sure you entered the correct IP address of your device running DCS MovingMap in DCS OPTIONS > SPECIAL > MovingMap.
