bones1014 Posted January 16, 2019 Posted January 16, 2019 Is it at all possible to have a Trigger Safety Bracket toggle instead of two different key to arm and safe weapons and a hold to arm?
SacredRaziel Posted January 16, 2019 Posted January 16, 2019 Yes. It is the standard setting for me with my 2 stage trigger. Stage 1 is cover and stage 2 is weapon release. Gesendet von meinem SM-G960F mit Tapatalk

Wilbus Posted January 16, 2019 Posted January 16, 2019 Hey! I'm using a X55 Rhino with a pretty good working Toggle for it. Uncertain what type joystick or HOTAS you are using but the X55 Rhino throttle has got a slider on it near your thumb which I have set for Trigger safety cover up/down (can't remember the correct name for it now, will check when I get home). Can't seem to upload an image for you though to show it... :( However, even though I have the slider for it I mainly use the stick button by my thumb to active trigger up/down, it's in such a good place that it's as fast and easy to use and I don't forget it up (or down) when I need it. Just press hold then squeeze trigger and release, before that I had a different button for it which was hard to reach and threw off my aim in a really bad way so totally understand your request. Regards Wilbuz
SacredRaziel Posted January 16, 2019 Posted January 16, 2019 Ahh... sorry misread that. Disregard my last post then. Gesendet von meinem SM-G960F mit Tapatalk
Airhunter Posted January 16, 2019 Posted January 16, 2019 Agreed, having a simple ON/OFF button would be nice.
bones1014 Posted January 16, 2019 Author Posted January 16, 2019 Thank you all for the suggestions. I'm using a CH products HOTAS which doesn't have a two-stage trigger. Right now I use a button on top to open the safety and the bottom pinkie button to close it. I would like to be able to use the upper button (or any single button) as a toggle instead of two button for that function. Probably would have to be a thing Heatblur would add.
viper2097 Posted January 16, 2019 Posted January 16, 2019 Just use your button on top as "hold" function? Thats what I'm doing, works perfect. Steam user - Youtube I am for quality over quantity in DCS modules
bones1014 Posted January 16, 2019 Author Posted January 16, 2019 Just use your button on top as "hold" function? Thats what I'm doing, works perfect. I know that's an option but it's a little ungainly for me. I honestly have enough buttons on my stick for the Viggen. It's one of those things that would be convenient and make it a toggle button so it functions like the lever in the cockpit.
LeCuvier Posted January 18, 2019 Posted January 18, 2019 Not sure if you all mean the same thing when you say "toggle". According to Wikipedia it can mean a maintained switch (for lighting ON/OFF), and it can refer to a momentary switch (like the Bit switches on the good old minicomputers). Anyway, I use the EAC switch on my TM WH throttle and that works fine for me.

Then you press and release the same button and it closes the safety.
izzyssm Posted January 22, 2019 Posted January 22, 2019 I think you are going to have to look into the code for the switch you are trying to toggle and customize it that way.

LeCuvier Posted January 22, 2019 Posted January 22, 2019 By toggle I mean you press and release one button to open the safety and it stays open. Then you press and release the same button and it closes the safety. I have looked at the code and the lever in the cockpit. It can be used with a single maintained ON/OFF switch like the EAC switch on the TM WH throttle (hold) or with 2 pushbuttons for the commands ON resp. OFF. I see no way to make it a toggle command.

Sorry to butt-in but if you have a T1600 layout for the AJS37 I'd definitely be interested if you could upload it somewhere
