fixed [REPORTED]IFF Master Switch/DED data input bug

[Sharpe_95]

Hi there,

I think I have found a bug relating to the IFF. The issue is as follows:

- Once the jet is aligned and ready, I turn the IFF master switch to 'NORM'.

- This has the effect of putting the IFF status on the CNI page of the DED, showing mode, channels etc in the bottom left.

 

However, the bug (I believe) is that if you move the IFF master switch to 'OFF', the CNI page does not change, it keeps the same IFF status information (mode, channels etc in the bottom left - as it was when it was set to 'NORM') - despite the IFF Master Switch being set to 'OFF'.

 

I would have thought if the IFF Master Switch is set to 'OFF' it should display no information in the CNI page, as it does when it is originally in the 'OFF' position?

 

I have tried to see if waiting a period of time (over two minutes) resolves the issue, or if moving out of the CNI page to another page resolves the issue, or turning MIDS and/or L16 off changes the page - it does not (see track).

 

It might also be worth investigating further to see if this has an impact on the IFF interrogation of F16s in general (do they still operate as if IFF in 'NORM' when it is actually set to 'OFF', or if the IFF master has never been turned to NORM in the first place)?

 

I have sent a track file to BIGNEWY via email as the file is 1mb to large to fit as an attachment.

Thanks I am not sure about this, but it seems reasonable that the information should change on the CNI page, I will let you know what the Devs say

 

thanks
