Is the A-10C ILS 'off' function mapped ?

[xray20]

Hi,

My cockpit build is nearly complete (pictures soon).

I can't find a keyboard/button function to turn the ILS off.

The on/off command turns it on and the same command should toggle it off, but it doesn't.

Anyone else seen this? Anyone have a solution?

 

Thanks

Matt

Are you using Helios?

 

What input device (switch) are you using?

 

Are you using a joystick interface like Arduino, GP Wiz or Leo Bodnar type?

 

Sorry to be ignorant, are you using some kind of scripting, I read you need to tell some functions about your switch state.

 

Sorry Im not good at this but answers to these questions may help?

Thanks for your reply Mr Burns,

I'm using a keyboard emulator (Hagstrom KE108USB), but that doesn't seem to matter. If I assign a keycode to ILS ON/OFF (say LCtrl+Rctrl+A) from within DCS A10, then using that code, whether from the Hagstrom or from the keyboard itself, I can turn ILS on and I would expect that a repeat of the keypresses would turn it off again; but it doesn't.

 

Its the only one of 248 switches I have mapped which wont behave. I suspect a bug.

I have the center push button of a rotary encoder set up for this and it used to work, but recently it hasn't been able to turn off ILS either.

Haven't had too much time to investigate though.

Well the ILS power button mapping has changed, at before press the mapped button turn it on and press it again turn it off, now you need 2 buttons to do that: one button is for turning on, the other is for off.

Thanks Overpro, I thought so. have you done this successfully? Wheres the ILS off assignment?

I cant find it in the controls map.
