M-Flux Posted March 29 Share Posted March 29 Hi, I'm having trouble setting the datalink in the Red Flag 21-1 campaign. I have both the GPS switch and MIDS LVT on. On the DLINK DED, NET STATUS page I tried toggling "GPS TIME" between on and off as others have suggested, but did not seem to help either. SYNC says "FINE", NTR is OFF. Though the "TIME" itself under "NET STATUS" stays empty (is that expected?). Also the HSD says "XMT: TNDL". And the TNDL STN page seems to list other flight member track numbers. However on the HSD I see no other aircrafts in this campaign. I'm probably missing something obvious, quite new to datalink. Thanks for the help!

skywalker22 Posted March 29 Share Posted March 29 Did you do a cold start? If so, when did you put the MIDS LVT switch to on? You must only put it to on, when GPS alignemnt is done, you see that by pressing the button 6 (TIME) on the IPC, and in the left upper corner must be written GPS SYSTEM (if there is no GPS the alignment is not done yet).

Thanks for the help! This seems to be bad alignment, did you do Stored or Normal alignment? if Normal you need to confirm coordiantes in first two minutes of the alignment, also aircraft can not move, not even rearm cause it may shake the jet and fail the alignment. anyway, post a track of this happening so we can see whats going on.
