fixed [REPORTED]'NOT SOI' on HSD not a thing

[AvroLanc]

In the lastest OB, the F-16 HSD included a 'NOT SOI' (Sensor of Interest) message when the HSD hasn't been made priority with DMS down.

 

This is incorrect I believe, no 'NOT SOI' should ever be shown on the HSD. It doesn't match any documentation I've ever seen. Since the HSD is not a 'sensor' then this message should only apply to FCR, TGP, HAD and WPN page.

 

No track attached since it's pretty obvious.

Hi

 

If you have any data suggesting it should not PM me please, we have no data that it should not.

 

thank you

PM'd some specifics but an available manual online makes a reference to NOT SOI being shown on both the FCR and WPN pages. As well as a TGP 'NOT SOI'.

 

Nowhere is the HSD referenced as a candidate for NOT SOI. It's not a sensor, in the strictest sense.

 

There's also plenty of pictorial evidence available, see pics. All the pics show other MFD pages as SOI, indicated by the white outline, note how 'NOT SOI' is not on the HSD.

 

Although not all confirmed as USAF Block 50's, this functionality is so common throughout the blocks that I'd argue specific block version isn't an issue.

 

See also this vid. Some good shots of HSD, Not Soi is absent.

 

 

Have the team positive evidence that it should be there?

 

Cheers.

The NOT SOI mnemonic is not provided on the HSD on the non-CDU Vipers, our version is the non-CDU variant viper.

Hi all

 

based on the feedback and the picture / video evidence we will remove the NOT SOI for the HSD

 

Thank you
