[LATER] Cold Start - BIT failures

[Badger1815]

Hey,

 

I've noticed when running a cold & dark instant mission when i follow the procedure as described in Chucks guide i can't seem to get rid of the bit failures.

 

I can't seem to remember having this problem a month ago when i last played DCS Hornet. Updated just yesterday to 2.5.4.2, but i could be mistaken.

 

Included the BIT DDI page i get after completing the procedure. I've used FCS reset & the FCS Bit test.

 

Any pointers would be greatly appreciated

Some of these show up because they simply aren‘t implemented yet, like MIDS, datalink and IFF.

The HMD will get an ALIGN mode sometime in the future, I guess it will clear as well then.

Totally normal since day one. As said before not implemented systems show as failure some as degraded if not complete yet.

Thx all for the quick replies!

FCS BIT FAILS(SOLUTION?)

 

Good morning fellas,

I was also experiencing issues with the, after-shutdown, restart FCS-Bit fail. ( FCS-BIT stuck in test and flight controls do not cycle).

I tried the fixes that i read but could not get it to pass.

I have been able to restart with no issues after i did this:

after full shut down: Engines, APU, BATT to off.

 

BATT- ON

APU- ON

ENG CRANK ®

ENG 2 IDLE

Aural Annunciations

Make sure NSW is not engaged

DDI (L) - MENU, FCS

Double stack Master Caution

FCS- RESET

DDI ®- STOP

FCS-MC/GO

Hold "Y" Press FCS OSB

"IN TEST"

Flight Controls cycle (ACTUATOR EXERCISER MODE)

FCSA/B go from "IN TEST" to GO

 

I don't yet understand how exactly...FCC's A/B, CAS,DEL, redundancies compromised?

"Redundancy to the flight control actuators is achieved either by simultaneously pressurizing the actuator from both systems or by supplying pressure to the actuator from 1 system while the other system is in a back-up mode. "

 

My guess would be forcing system 1 into backup mode while pressurizing actuators with system 2 only.

I do not know if this is already a fix by someone else, i just thought i would post it..just in case.

Have a good one!

PS- i am having issues posting a video. i will try and post it

Did you start the Left Engine too?
