correct as is DAP (Display Adjust Panel) Control

[SunDevilPilot]

In an effort to resolve both the Night Vision Goggle image and the data within the IHADSS being displayed too high in my VR Goggles (Meta Quest 3 and Meta Quest Pro) I have mapped the DAP controls.  The DAP controls do seem to work for the IHADSS, as the display data does move towards the bottom of the display when I make adjustments.  However....  here is the issue.

 

The Boresight Function does not seem to adapt to the change in display location.  Additionally, the Cueing Dots (Page 82 of the DCS Apache Manual) do not move along with the other IHADSS display data sorta confirming the lack or the bore sighting function actually working

 

Not sure it this is a bug or a work in progress.

 

The DAP function would be excellent to have as it resolved the alignment issue for the IHADSS.

Hi - can you please explain in a little more detail? First, what is the Display Adjust Panel (how is it accessed)? Second, what controls have you mapped in order to fix the problem in the IHADDS? If you could post an image in response, then that would be really appreciated. Thanks. S

The controls are standard in the DCS Apache module...  Just search for "DAP".  The controls move the digital image projected onto the glass of the IHADSS.  I have them mapped to a rotary dial on my throttle but any pushbutton would work..  The digital image moves really slowly so you'll need to push the same button a lot to get it to actually start moving the projected data / image. 

 

When doing so.... pay close attention to the Cuing Dots as they relate to the center crosshair of the IHADSS.  They will not move together.  Additionally, the weapons, specifically the gun, will not shoot in relation to the adjusted cross hair in the IHADSS (Bore sighting does not resolve this).

 

Thanks for your interest!

Because you’re not supposed to use the DAP to do what you’re trying to do. The DAP is there for when the grayscale image wakes up incorrectly sized or centered so you can adjust it to be correctly sized and centered. In the real aircraft if you’re having issues with symbology (sizing and centering) then you get your helmet fixed. It is not meant to adjust for an incorrect boresight. If your boresight is off, re-boresight. Shifting the LOS with the DAP is 100% not recommended, in either the virtual or real ah-64.

OK so provide us a mean to adjust the position of the IHADS display in VR because  I need touching my chest with my nose or nearly to see the azimuth bar on the top....whatsoever perfect being the calibration and the adjustment of my MD on my face

Can you screenshot what you are seeing

also are you using any other tools like quad views?

thank you

The image / IHADSS is too high...  Just imagine the real IHADSS assembly being pushed up from the correct position directly in front of your eye to the are in front of your eyebrow.  Just need a way to lower the entire IHADSS assembly back down into the proper position in front of your eye in VR.

Bumping this. I'm having this problem also, and don't know how to fix it. Instead of the LOS Reticle being in the natural center of my vision, the Field of Regard Box is instead. I have to look up, almost painfully, to read torque.
