investigating TMS Inputs on FRC or TGP when changing MARK modes

[Moonshine]

Currently when then changing MARK mode to FCR or TGP the TMS inputs for FCR or TGP don't work at all. so scenario as follows:

- Start with AG Master Mode and AG radar on GM 
- select MARK (7 on ICP) makes HUD SOI -> correct.
- now change SOI with DMS to FCR
- Change MARK Mode from HUD to FCR
- now here you wont be able to use TMS for the FCR still even though you changed MARK from HUD to FCR.

is that intended to be like that?

Hi, 

you need to return out of mark point mode as I understand it. 

include a track replay and we can take a closer look. 

thanks

Seems like you gotta close the MARK page first as you said.
Upon opening the MARK page while you were on FCR but no SPI set (so TMS up hasnt been pressed, nothing designated) it returns the FCR to the AGR page.

manually selecting the GM mode again and slewing the Radar will work, yet TMS input is ignored as the Mark page is still open.

There should be documented statements to the effect that marks aren't recorded until the FCR/TGP are tracking and until then TMS commands are applied to the sensor as normal. E.g. with non tracking FCR in mark mode first TMS forward commands FCR track and second records mark.
