Does the CURSOR/ENABLE switch have any function at the moment?

Seems to be just called the ENABLE switch in Viper control settings, but does it have any function at the moment?

Not yet for the depress button part

What other part is there?

"The cursor/enable control is a four-way joystick with a press capability. The joystick moves the radar cursors (or the cursors of whatever format is active on the active MFD). The z-axis press (enable) toggles between weapon launch modes (depending on the active weapon). For most missiles it toggles between slave mode (follows radar) or boresight mode (looks straight ahead)." - extracted from https://www.quora.com/What-do-all-of-the-controls-in-an-F16-fighter-jets-cockpit-do

 

The cursor part is working but not the depress commands at the moment. For Hotas systems that do not have this type of switch, the cursor slewing can be done by the POV button and the depress function by another button.

Sorry, didn't realise that the cursor was part of the cursor/enable switch. I took it too literally!

So, at the moment, pressing in does nothing. It'll come later, I guess.

Yea just map it to RH MFD OSB 19 for the time being, and toggle bewteen SLAVE and BORE with A-A weapons. I use the TWCS so the slew hat on the throttle has a press feature.

Same here took me a while to figure that out. I also misunderstood the Airbrakes Fwd/RETRACT command. It means if you move the switch Forward, it Retracts. I thought it cycled between Extend (Fwd) and Retract. LoL
