bonesvf103 Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 Is it not possible to use the LTD/R to sday buddy lase for someone if you yourself are not carrying laser weapons? Everytime I throw the switch, the solenoid throws it back off so I can't lase. I'm not carrying any laser weapons, just the LITENING.

noisy_lightning Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 Make sure master arm is set to Arm and you are in AG mode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LastRifleRound Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 Make sure master arm is set to Arm and you are in AG mode. This and make sure you have "Trigger" boxed on the TPOD display page on the DDI after you have done the above. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bonesvf103 Posted August 17, 2020 Author Share Posted August 17, 2020 Thanks but master arm was on and I couldn't even get a "Trigger" option to show up on the MFD because to get that LTD/R has to be in the arm position, and it won't stay there. v6, boNes "Also, I would prefer a back seater over the extra gas any day.

Knives Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 Are you in the A/G mode? Also make sure you don't have the gun selected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
squid509 Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 (edited) 1. warm up TPOD 2. master arm to ARM 3. set AG mode 4. LTD/R switch to ARM (it should stay latch now) 5. open FLIR page on DDI or AMPCD of choice 6. set desired laser code - the code on your pod has to match the code on the weapon your buddy is using - the pod has two places to punch in a laser code LTDC to set the code you Tpod will fire and LSTC the code you Tpod will look for use LTDC - Press UFC on FLIR page - Press LTDC on UFC make sure you see the Colon ( : ) next to LTDC - type in desired code - press enter 7. on the top right of the FLIR page you should now see the Trigger option pop up select it 8. find you target 9. press and HOLD your trigger to fire you laser you need to hold down the trigger to keep the laser on until weapon impact Edited August 17, 2020 by squid509 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sirrah Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 Have you tried placing the switch to "safe" and then to "arm"? I've had a similar problem where I couldn't get the switch to the armed position. Flipping it to "safe" first, solved it for me.

bonesvf103 Posted August 17, 2020 Author Share Posted August 17, 2020 (edited) Switch to A/G mode. I was not in AG mode--perhaps that was it. Will try again and check to be sure, thanks! v6, boNes Edited August 17, 2020 by bonesvf103 "Also, I would prefer a back seater over the extra gas any day.
