Giving Viggen another trial time. But training is not working.

It is not required to do this. Keep your fingers off the safety unless you have a lock!!

Trigger safety up is only necessary (required) when you already have successfully locked onto a target.
Then the next steps are:
.) trigger safety up, and then
.) fire the weapon

I hope it helps, despite I doubt a little bit because of the amount of information given so far.
This makes no sense to me at all: "Not visible is EP set to TV T1 via HOTAS. "

Another approach might be to check if you have accidently engaged any of the TV, T1 with your config.
In the past we had users having these kind of problems.

Further note that Johns tutorial video is wrong.
You actually have to use T1 to start slewing the cross hair, which you have already noticed.
So the steps are:

Weapon selector to RB75.
Master Mode to ANF.
Press T1.
Slew crosshair.
Press TV once over a target that is lock-able.
Trigger unsafe.
Fire.
 

Edit: I attached a track that shows that everything works fine.
You might find something you are doing wrong, or something is wrong with the DCS installation.

I had crew arm aircraft with RB-75A, gunpod, U/22 jammer,

As far as I know not all weapons are compatible with each other on the Viggen, Iv'e noticed that a combination of AKAN gunpods and ARAK rockets don't work together.

Maybe you have the same problem so try to make your own mission with only RB 75's.

What a lovely way to fight! Is there a stores compatibility matrix?  Lets say rockets on left chin, and RB-75A on right chin. So both prevent each other from working. Jammer pod and countermeasures pod  take up two stations where RB15 go. So either choose your most potent anti-ship weapon or self-protection pods. Need all aspect Sidewinders, well those go on stations where either RB15 , jammer. countermeasures pods go. Outer stations, take only rear-aspect Sidewinders.

You can mix Sidewinders with AG weapons, ECM/CM pod with AG weapons, Gunpods with RB05 or RB75. But other than that, no mixing (unless I forgot a combo) .

razo+r is correct, but to put it in a different way: Sidewinders and the ECM/chaff&flare pods can always be added to any loadout (assuming you have suitable stations free). The gun pods can be used together with rb 05 or rb 75. Other than that, you're limited to a single weapon system at a time. Asymmetrical loadouts are supported though.

Compared to a modern multirole fighter this might seem weird but it makes sense in the operational context the aircraft was designed for. It was exclusively made for "one pass, haul ass" missions against pre-planned targets. CAS was not a thing the Swedish air force even considered doing at the time. Mixing weapon systems would have added a lot of complexity to the already extremely complex (for its time) onboard computer, for almost no benefit. The fact that you can't carry countermeasures together with some of the most important weapon systems though is definitely a design flaw and was controversial even at the time; my impression is that the capability was dropped for cost reasons (it was added on the fighter variant JA37 later though).

It's important to note though that the normal way the AJ 37 was operated was in groups of at least four aircraft, or more rarely in pairs - almost never alone. If you for some reason really needed multiple capabilities in one mission you just assigned them to different aircraft in the group. Even then though, A2A weapons would not normally be carried for strike missions - the aircraft is completely reliant on its speed at low altitude for survival, and if it gets into a dogfight something has gone extremely wrong. The reason they can be carried is so it can be used to intercept bombers and paratrooper transports in a pinch. The all-aspect Sidewinders were a very late addition in the aircraft's service life.
