[FIXING] CMBT page does not show the correct number of chaff and flares

Hi, if you changed number of chaff and flares during rearming. After DTC load, CMBT page does not show the correct number of chaff and flares

IIRC you cannot change the Chaff/Flares numbers in this plane

Did you ask the ground crew to update the DTC data and then reload that?

I've had it work, but the DTC workflow of pulling the cassette when you come to a halt, updating it after rearming is done, and reloading the data before take-off takes some getting used to. It may have not worked one time I did it, but after the fact, I can't remember if that was because I did things in the wrong order or if I had to do to data updates to make it “stick”.

I need to elaborate a bit. Have a JF-17 cold and dark on the ramp. No loadout and no fuel. I refuel and rearm, changed chaff and flare. Asked ground crew to update DTC. everything else was updated except chaff and flare counts.

 

If I fly around, used some chaff/flare. Land and rearm. It seems fine.

will discuss with ED

i tried to change the chaff/flare number, but then what i got from API is full load quantity
