AOA Not Working
I updated to v16 software, and that may or may not be related to my AOA no longer functioning (i.e., the red "X" over the graphical display - and, not surprisingly, I no longer get tones or audio warnings). Also, when I recently installed a new 5500 touchscreen (to replace a non-touch), my avionics tech configured all 3 screens to receive ADS-B traffic and weather. Maybe one of these changes impacted the AOA indicator? An ethernet configuration change? See below for my current settings. Any suggestions? Thanks!

That does look specious. Normally a screen that has AIRDATA HW:INT would also have AOA HW:WING. Where do your air data ports connect?
AIRDATA HW:INT & AOA HW:WING would be tubes connect directly into AF-5000

Hi Shawn - The AOA has two tubes running to a port on the wing. You can see the pics here http://briansrv10.com/aoa-installation . Those tubes run directly to the efis. So please confirm that this means I should change the Administration settings to:
AIRDATA HW:INT, NET:OFF
AOA HW:WING, NET:RXD
Or should it be AOA NET:OFF ?
In the actual Admin Settings dialogue, I would select Hardware Select: AFS WING PORTS ... AFS Network Sharing: ??

Yes, when the all tubes (Pitot, Static, and AoA) connect directly to the EFIS you would normally select:
AIRDATA HW:INT, NET:TXD
AOA HW:WING,NET:TXD
If you only had Pitot and Static connected directly to the EFIS like my be the case on the co-pilot side:
AIRDATA HW:INT, NET:TXD
AOA HW:OFF, NET:RXD
If you don't have any tubes connected connected like my be the case on the center screen:
AIRDATA HW:OFF, NET:RXD
AOA HW:OFF, NET:RXD
Use whichever tubing scenario matches each EFIS.
