ollk22 Posted March 15, 2021 Posted March 15, 2021 Hi folks so I often activate the HMD on powering up the f18, and once set up and satisfied I will usually use the above function to blank the display... So most of the time I can un-blank by pressing this button again, but as sods law states, when I need it to unblank, it won't and remains non operational. I know the switch is dual purpose in real life so is this something to do with SOI or similar?
Bunny Clark Posted March 16, 2021 Posted March 16, 2021 As far as I know, HMD blanking is its only purpose in DCS right now. It does sometimes need to be held for a bit in my experience. Not quite a long press, but close. Oil In The Water Hornet Campaign. Bunny's: Form-Fillable Controller Layout PDFs | HOTAS Kneeboards | Checklist Kneeboards

Not sure what is going on but it definitely refuses to come back when I need it!
Griefhard Posted September 21, 2022 Posted September 21, 2022 I do have the same problem somewhat. Button press works fine until some undefined time in the mission, when the HMD does not show up. It seems random and it seems not all of the time. Anyone k now if that's a bug or a feature? Maybe I am using the button wrong?
Tholozor Posted September 22, 2022 Posted September 22, 2022 The RECCE button will not work for the HMD when the TDC is assigned to the SA page, as the RECCE button will operate the EXP function. 1 REAPER 51 | Tholozor VFA-136 (c.2007): https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3305981/ Arleigh Burke Destroyer Pack (2020): https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3313752/
