FLJetPilot Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 Hi everyone, I am in the latest 2.7 stable release and I have a problem with F18 HARM cage/uncage in TOO mode. I set the HARMs in TOO mode, select the emitter with POV button but when I press cage/uncage to transfer target data to the HARM it does nothing and the missile does not go into RDY mode. I know the throttle cage/uncage button is properly mapped cause AIM-9s and AIM-7s uncage fine. SOI is properly selected. I followed every step of Matt Wagner’s youtube tutorial and still no luck. Any idea what could be going on and how to fix it? Thanks!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FLJetPilot Posted November 24, 2021 Author Share Posted November 24, 2021 yes, Master Arm and AG on, HARM selected in DDI and SOI in the correct DDI. I see the emitters in the DDI and can select the one I want to target but when I press the cage/uncage button it doesn't put the HARM into RDY state Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
codenamepanzer Posted November 26, 2021 Share Posted November 26, 2021 (edited) Did you try the TOO HRM OVRD button on DDI ? Edited November 26, 2021 by codenamepanzer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FLJetPilot Posted November 26, 2021 Author Share Posted November 26, 2021 (edited) I did and it doesn’t work. I can fire HARM missiles fine in SP and PB mode. It just doesn’t work in TOO mode because for some reason when I press the cage/uncage button the current emitter selected info does not transfer to the active missile ( I know it is not a hardware or mapping issue cause cage/uncage works with AIM-9s and AIM-7s ) Edited November 26, 2021 by FLJetPilot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried to launch HARMs in TOO mode but cannot transfer emitter data to the missile using cage/uncage button. As you can see in the track I had no problem launching and killing the SAM radars in SP mode If anyone has a suggestion on how to fix this I'd really appreciate it!! Thanks!!

Solution Johnny Johnny Johnny Posted December 2, 2021 Solution Share Posted December 2, 2021 (edited) @FLJetPilot I have checked your track and you did not make the left screen the active one (sensor control switch left) there is no diamond present on the left screen. Uploaded a video where I take control of your track replay and do scs left and then use cage/uncage to select the SA6 and fire.

FLJetPilot Posted December 2, 2021 Author Share Posted December 2, 2021 Johnny, You were absolutely right. I tried this many times and I could have swore I was moving the SOI to the left DDI. But tried it again earlier today and it did work. Thanks for checking my track and pointing out i was missing that step!!! Cheers... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL, I had problem find the "sensor control switch left" because I plaing it on a laptot... btw in a manual is press "I" but it is not true it is "rightAlt + , " Edited March 20, 2022 by jjoohhnnyy13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
