Problems with the WMD-7 TGP not reslaveing and laser not working

[isglas]

Hey, this might be a bug or me doing it wrong but lets say that I “lock” a point on the ground maping radar (GMR) while having a Waypoint 36 (or any other pp waypoint) selected. After I unlocked the position on the GMR won’t it reslave to WPT 36. I have experience all kind of combos where you can’t reslave something on the select WPT father locking something on the radar.

 

Regarding the laser dose it seam to “burn” out or stop to work in if you switch it from auto lase to manual and then back. Stuff just stops tracking.

I would assume that the T(and a number) on the tgp screen is for time to impact? If so is it never acutely. It is always of by a lot (20 seconds or more)

 

anyone else experiencing this issues or is it just me having a bit of a moment lol

after some testing the only way to reset your SPI to your active WPT is to have the radar as SOI and press "S2 press" 2x. If the TPG is SOI "S2 press" only unlocks a target from point track. I'm not sure if that's intentional or a bug.

In regards to the laser i remember some time ago it had a tendency to break but i think that got fixed i personally haven't had any problems with the laser not turning on. As far as i know the TPG doesn't have a manual laser mode anymore it had it but that got removed and the TPG only autolases now (would love to be corrected on that). The number you referencing is most likely the laser active timer, the laser on the jeff can not be permanently turned on it will automatically turn off to prevent damage to the laser and that timer (flashing "LSD T ##") tells you when the laser turns off

You can manually turn on the laser on some mfd button on the right side. 

Needed to do that just today because autolase didn’t work - but only when laser spot search locked a JTAC laser spot. I don’t know if autolase is supposed to be turned off in this case. Otherwise it was working fine.
