Krez Posted February 6, 2021 Share Posted February 6, 2021 Did something change in the use of the TPOD with IRMAVs? I use the TPOD to select a target. I have the IRMAV selected on the stores page on the left MFD. I hit cage/uncage and I see the IRMAV seaker on the left MFD. When I hit SS Forward, nothing happens.

netizensmith Posted February 6, 2021 Share Posted February 6, 2021 I also cannot get an IRMAV to launch but I was never 100% sure on what I was supposed to do so I'll follow this thread with interest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krez Posted February 6, 2021 Author Share Posted February 6, 2021 (edited) It used to be: Use the TPOD to select a target. Select IRMAV. Press cage/uncage. Press SS Forward. Press TDC Down until the IRMAV gets a lock. Press Weapon Release. Something has changed. Or, I've been doing it wrong all along and they fixed the bug which allowed it.

felixx75 Posted February 6, 2021 Share Posted February 6, 2021 First you have to press SSS DOWN twice to select "INS" and then SSS FWD to select "TV" -> IRMV (also shown on the left MPCD). Then you can use the TMC to move the IRMV. If you just press SSS FWD, while TPOD is active, you are using LTIP, the Laser Range option (even the TPOD is in save mode). Left MPCD: Right MPCD: stores page TPOD as active sensor (TPOD) search for a target cage/uncage to slew the seeker to the target SSS DOWN twice to enter INS Mode SSS FWD to enter TV Mode -> IRMV you can see "IRMV" and now you can use TDC depress to lock the Target (or to slew the seeker around) 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jacks Posted February 8, 2021 Share Posted February 8, 2021 But when I do this, the designate mod turns to HUD and so when I press TDC to try and lock the seeker, the TPOD flicks to where the HUD was pointing. Is there no way to lock an IRMV seeker while TPOD is SOI and TPOD Des is selected? System Specs: i7 8700k @ 5.0GHz (not delidded), ASRock Extreme4 Z370 MOBO, EVGA GTX 1080 SC 8GB, 32GB Corsair Vengeance LPX 3200MHz DDR4 RAM, Samsung Evo 240GB SSD, Samsung Evo 500GB SSD, 1TB HDD, Noctura NH-D15S Heat Sink, Acer VE278H 27" 1080p Monitor, Ocukus Rift CV1. Controllers: TrackIR 5, Thrustmaster HOTAS X, Saitek Throttle Quadrant (with DIY removable collective mod), Saitek Pro Flight Rudder Pedals. Just trying to keep my number of takeoffs and landings equal! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
felixx75 Posted February 8, 2021 Share Posted February 8, 2021 Your left MPCD (IRMAV screen) must show "IRMV" in the left upper corner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DimSim Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 I haven't been flying the Harrier lately, but this may be of help, if it still works: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
