Help regarding TADS operation and sights / aquisition source

[markturner1960]

So doing some player as CPG practice  as its been ages and found once I had switched to TADS that I could not slew the view using my bound microstick on the controller I use for the TEDAC. Nothing I did seemed to sort it out, what are the circumstances where this can happen and why? I tried slaving, everything. Its probably something stupid I have overlooked, as I say, its been a while since I tried player as CPG. I am thinking its maybe to do with the aquistion source, ( it was on FXD) but options in that did not have anything such as CPG TADS etc to choose....

Wathed some Youtube guides - I think I need to have TADS showing in the bottom left of the TADS screen, but nothing I do seems to make this happen.....

Any tips?...Thanks

I'm guessing you did not switch sight select to TADS. It's a hat on RHG.

@ Greeny - Thx, can you clarify?The IAT switch has 2 settings, IAT & OFC, I have both mapped and they are momentary, If I press either, nothing changes. 

@Admiki, defintely selecting TADS as sight , have it bound on my controller

@markturner1960, your sight is still set to HMD.

I think I have it - there is another post here about an issue with shift modifiers. My Controller relys on a lot of those and it had become un modified....so I was pressing the correct buttons, but the commands were not registering........

Thanks for the suggestions as thery made me double check my bindings! 

thanks all

ahh sry, i didnt mean the iat, i meant the LST on the RHG. its a 3 pos switch, if that is on auto, the TADS will search for Lasercodes, so you cant slew it manually.

but the modifire could also be the problem
