TGP CCD = IR?

[scoobie]

Hi,
I might have messed up my DCS or the Jeff itself somehow - is anybody else having the thing described below?

My CCD camera on targeting pod turned into IR camera (it wasn't like this when I first bought Jeff). Now both IR is IR, and CCD is IR as well. The latter only starts from cold and dark at different level/gain than IR, so CCD initially seems to be different than IR. It isn't, it's IR.

Screens attached. In one screenshot the TGP is in CCD mode and in the other it's in IR. In both the targeted truck is shown in hot/cold "colours", not visible light. Interestingly, CCD even lets me switch WHOT/BHOT with S2 hat right. All that would be cool, I guess (not really), but current implementation of IR imaging in DCS (actually it's about imaging of ground, not targets) makes it 98% of the time impossible for me to use

Could you attach a trackfile? that would help the guys at deka!

I've seen this, where it will say its IR, but it's clearly CCD, frustrating at times, when I actually want to use the camera. It's super bright even if it's night time or dusk.

I also have this proble m, though it seems to occur all the time

sorry i dont have my pc any more and only have an old laptop with GT750M.

so if i understand correctly, current ccd behaves like ir that during night, it's able to render the world clearly?

it's probably due to the image source type we chose, beginning, we chose colorful image but this resulted in full screen black issue

then we switched to current image source

i will investigate it when i'm back

I would post a video here, but i cant upload more than 75kb for some reason, i will upload to YT and post the link here in a couple minutes

ahhh, looks like CCD at beginning is ok (please help verify it in default CCD until target takes off), but if switch it to IR and then switch back to CCD, CCD behaves like IR.

one moment

 

CCD seems to be IR, I didnt switch to IR until later, but it still behaves like IR
