fite Posted May 7, 2024 Posted May 7, 2024 I've noticed some strange behaviour with the DED screen on the ICP: When I turn ECM switch 1 to the off position it also turns the DED backlight off, I've attached a video showing the behaviour. It happens with power to the jet and without power and I don't have ECM switch 1 mapped to anything anywhere. Does this happen for anyone else? ICP_DED.MP4
Wostg Posted May 7, 2024 Posted May 7, 2024 THIS IS A STUPID PERSON'S GUESS Each command in DCS is attached to a number, the one for button 1 on the ECM in the F-16C is is "460": (from DCS' own scripting) elements["PTR-ECM-BTN-1-460"] = default_2_position_tumb(_("ECM 1 Button"), devices.ECM_INTERFACE, ecm_commands.OneBtn, 460) Number "460" in the FA-18C is (according to popular external script DCS-BIOS): defineFloat("CONSOLE_INT_LT", 460, {0, 1}, "Internal Lights", "Console Lightning (light green)") So my untested guess is that there's leftover code from the FA-18 MIP panels and simapppro is receiving and acting on some kind of lights off command. If its not just you then definitely worth raising a ticket with WW, they can be fast about these things sometimes. 1 I can think of nothing heavier than an airplane I can think of no greater conglomerate of steel and metal I can think of nothing less likely to fly
fite Posted May 7, 2024 Author Posted May 7, 2024 Interesting! That would seem to make sense, I'll raise a ticket with WW. Thank you. 1
