Zarma Posted May 9, 2016 Posted May 9, 2016 Hi. Don't know if somebody else has this trouble. Usually when I start a combat mission, as soon as I take off, I turn the FLIR and Viviane in standbye mode so the FLIR can cool down and everything is ready when I arrive to the target zone. From time to time, it happens that the laser doesn't work at all (no range on the screen) or the range is a fixed one and doesn't change (like if the device got a distance then stopped working). To reset the system, I have to turn everything off then on.

TomCatMucDe Posted May 9, 2016 Posted May 9, 2016 it happened to me once that I was constantly seeing 730m range independantly where I point. The range finder seemed stuck.
Mt5_Roie Posted May 9, 2016 Posted May 9, 2016 Do you have something mapped to the Laser button cover? The only reason it shouldn't work is if the Laser button cover is on. Coder - Oculus Rift Guy - Court Jester
Zarma Posted May 9, 2016 Author Posted May 9, 2016 Boat switch on the warthog throttle for both laser and firing cover. Working fine. i9 9900k, 64 Go RAM, RTX 4090, Warthog HOTAS Throttle & Stick, Virpil AH64 collective, TPR rudder, MFD Cougar, Trackir 5 Pro, Multipurpose UFC, Alain Dufour's TEDAC and Oculus Rift S (when I want some VR), http://www.twitch.tv/zarma4074 / https://www.youtube.com/user/Zarma4074
DeadTrooper Posted May 9, 2016 Posted May 9, 2016 I've seen this issue as well. I think it happens if I press the laser button more than once, or press it again before the previous value has timed out, but have not tested this theory. As a workaround I just put everything in standby mode and then back on again.
TomCatMucDe Posted May 9, 2016 Posted May 9, 2016 In my case it wasn't a cover issue. When I pushed the lasing button it show a value. But this value is constant independently from where I look. As if there was an invisible wall in front of me.

TomCatMucDe Posted May 9, 2016 Posted May 9, 2016 It's probably not easy to replicate it. I will investigate it more next time it happens to me, if it ever happens again ...
Deezle Posted May 10, 2016 Posted May 10, 2016 Had it happen to me once as well. Range was stuck at 6-7000 meters, same value no matter where I moved the camera. Only once though.

Zarma Posted May 15, 2016 Author Posted May 15, 2016 Maybe I shouldn't turn the Viviane on standbye as soon as I started the chopper. Is there a overwarm parameter for the laser ?? i9 9900k, 64 Go RAM, RTX 4090, Warthog HOTAS Throttle & Stick, Virpil AH64 collective, TPR rudder, MFD Cougar, Trackir 5 Pro, Multipurpose UFC, Alain Dufour's TEDAC and Oculus Rift S (when I want some VR), http://www.twitch.tv/zarma4074 / https://www.youtube.com/user/Zarma4074

Mt5_Roie Posted May 15, 2016 Posted May 15, 2016 So far haven't been able to replicate it. Will keep trying though. Any news ? Coder - Oculus Rift Guy - Court Jester
shaz56 Posted May 15, 2016 Posted May 15, 2016 I had this happen only the one time, I don't want to be a dumbass but I had forgot ten to arm the weapon system switch up.

Zarma Posted May 18, 2016 Author Posted May 18, 2016 (edited) Mmmm can't upload a .trk because of security token missing... But again, first not working even if it has been on standbye for a few minutes, then working after restart. I then closed up to the spot, range stuck a 14 km, then working after restart....... Question : when you turn the system on, can you warm it on standbye mode or do you have to turn it on, then back to standbye once warm ?
