[LATER IN EARLY ACCESS] AMPCD Gain Control Rocker

[dawgie79]

As stated in the manual:

The AMPCD (generally referred to as just the MPCD) is a full-color, NVG compatible digital display capable of providing any MENU selectable format except the A/G RADAR display. The MPCD is driven by either the Digital Map Set (DMS) for HSI displays, or the left DDI for all other MENU selectable formats. Four momentary two-position rocker switches and a rotary knob, located on the front of the MPCD, permit control of MPCD off/brightness, night/day viewing modes, symbology, gain, and contrast.

 

1. Off/Brightness Control.

This rotary switch is located in the top-center of the MPCD and is used to turn the AMPCD on and off or to select the brightness level.

 

2. Night/Day Brightness Selector.

This rocker switch is located inthe upper left corner of the MPCD and is used to select the lower brightness control (night) range and disable automatic contrast control (NITE position selected) or to select the higher brightness control (day) range (DAY position selected).

 

3. Symbology Control.

Momentary actuations of the upper half of the switch incrementally narrows the symbology, making it sharper and dimmer. Momentary actuations of the lower half incrementally widens the symbology, making it brighter and less sharp.

 

4. Gain Control.

Momentary actuations of the upper half of the switch incrementally increases background video brightness. Momentary actuations of the lower half incrementally decrease video brightness.

The 4th one is the only one not modeled currently, although it would be very handy if it would, because it would allow us the dim only the moving map, which would make it easier to read the symbology.

 

I was wondering if this will be implemented as well?

Number 3 is also not modeled correctly.
