Having issues with D Mavericks. Triple racked. Aircraft seems to be configured correctly (Direct. TV, etc) but when i pull the trigger to wake it up, the display does not come up. Cant really think of anything that i am forgetting.. MA is up, Stations are hot and armed. Can send a trk if truly needed.

DSCG switch to TV on the pedestal? https://f4.manuals.heatblur.se/cockpit/pilot/pedestal_group.html

It is a 3 position switch Radar-Off-TV but can look like two position switch in certain angles. I just mentioned it because it wasn't listed on your comment.

For me the mavs just won’t do the auto lock thing. But it may be the 30 min violation.

Thanks for the help.  Two pictures and the track.  FIgured the track is more useful since you can look around at will.

I lost use after firing the first missile this time.

Thank you for the track. We have checked it and apparently you are pressing the CAGE button (throttle) multiple times. You can also notice that by seeing that your Radar Range light suddenly goes to 5nm.

In CAGE mode, the aircraft is overridden to be put into a A2A situation. Your Mavericks are deselected and instead you are now commanding A2A weapons like Sparrows, Sidewinders and the gun. You cannot use your mavericks in CAGE mode and would need to leave that explicitly first.

When I explicitly leave CAGE again in your track, the Mavericks work again

Thanks.  I thought it was impossible, but I'm using the left hat switch on my Warthog.  I push it down to slew the Mavs.  I guess it's easy to pull it back which is how I have cage set up.

Appreciate the help.  I'll have to tweak my controls a bit.
