INDY69 Posted June 25, 2023 Posted June 25, 2023 1) POD switch (stby/xmit) can be programmed, but only actuated with mouse 2) ICS switch (stby/auto/man) can be programmed but only actuated with mouse 3) CMD panel with flare selected (chaff/both/flare) and knob in Manual (off/stby/manual/semi/auto) should only give 1 doublet of chaff for Man 1 actuation and 1 flare for Man 2. CMD actuation gives significantly more.

INDY69 Posted June 25, 2023 Author Posted June 25, 2023 (edited) I should have clarified PFM vs MSS. In PFM you are correct, but since I dont have a mission planning station, I cant actually program the MSS selection. I assumed RAZBAM would have set MSS up in Manual to give 1 chaff doublet MAN1, and 1 flare MAN2. Confirm that has not been programmed yet? Will there be a way to select just 1 of each CMD in the future? Edited June 25, 2023 by INDY69 Clarification of PFM vs MSS selection and CMD dispense relative to each selection

Will there be a way to select just 1 of each CMD in the future? There will likely be some sort of process in the future to allow user changes I would imagine. Ideally, through ED's DTM/DTC/DTwhatever cartridge system that is not in place yet. For right now, they are defined in the CMD's LUA file.
INDY69 Posted June 25, 2023 Author Posted June 25, 2023 (edited) Thank you very much Rainmaker, you are very knowledgeable and helpful. What about the problems with the POD and ICS switches on the left WSO panel aft of the left hand controller? I can program both switches, but they can only be activated with the mouse. I understand they may not yet be functional. Good Hunting, -INDY Edited June 25, 2023 by INDY69

I can only say be patient give them time to chase down some of these big things that are in the current builds, and sort to the smaller things later.
