Glitch on the Intercom button

[Mai_88]

Hello.

 

When the Intercom button is pressed, it sinks into the bottom of the panel.

And seems like the clicking area is misplaced (clicking under "TRÅD" makes the button press under "SM").

Its a tiny detail, but its there.

Hi @Mai_88. Here's an answer to this matter:

Thank you for your reply.

 

But it doesn't really address the issue that the SM button sinks through the panel, which should be a simple fix (the 3D part, obviously, by just moving the white mesh behind the button down a little bit).

 

It should work like the waypoint buttons, or maybe just remove the animation itself, since we are pressing TRÅD and not SM (like the Restart button, which has no movement)...

All this time I thought the "SM" thing was an indicator which turned white when the pilot was transmitting. Thanks for making me realize.

 

I've just read the authentic Viggen manual and found out there are two "SM" buttons: one on the flight control stick to emit on FR22, and the one this thread is about, which is used to emit on FR24.

 

About the intercom loop, this is what the manual reads:

Also with regard to communication via the [intercom] loop, the function selector must be in NORM + ALARM or RESERV mode.

When transmitting, the TRAD switch must be pressed.

 

It probably means the FR24 "SM" button shouldn't be animated when pressing TRAD.
