wrl11 Posted February 11, 2019 Posted February 11, 2019 If I start the jet from cold and dark, the IFEI brightness does not work. But if I start it hot it works. .
Rennes Posted February 11, 2019 Posted February 11, 2019 (edited) IFEI brightness only works in night mode. If the IFEI is white you are in day mode, if it is green you are in night mode. Day and night is switched using the 3 position switch on the right console, I think it is near the flood light knob. it is labeled DAY - NITE - NVG. Edited February 11, 2019 by Rennes
Deano87 Posted February 11, 2019 Posted February 11, 2019 Rennes is correct. From the NATOPS: "2.6.2.6 IFEI Lighting. In aircraft 164865 AND UP, the IFEI brightness control knob on the video recorder panel provides variable IFEI lighting between OFF and BRT, with the MODE switch on the interior light panel in either the NITE or NVG position."
