When pushing the O2 test button, the needle rotates to and through Empty as it should.
But when releasing the switch, the needle keeps rotating to the left and the caution light remains going on and off.

I noticed that it only shows this fault when the Oxygen regulator supply lever is on.

When the Oxygen regulator is OFF, and the restbutton is then pushed and released..it operates normally.

That's a bit odd, I can't confirm this observation. Can you record a track?

What I see is:

  • (Battery and Inverter On; ensure Master Caution is Off)
  • Hold the OXY IND TEST button depressed
  • As soon as the Liquid Oxygen needle rotates below the 0.5 liters indication, the OXY LOW indication comes up on the Caution Light Panel
    • As long as OXY LOW is showing, the Master Caution keeps flashing
  • When the OXY IND TEST button is released with the needle above 0 liters, the needle rotates back clockwise and OXY LOW extinguishes when the needle is above 0.5 liters
    • As soon as OXY LOW extinguishes, the Master Caution stops flashing
  • When the OXY IND TEST button is released after the needle passes the 0 liters mark, the needle keeps rotating counter-clockwise
    • OXY LOW extinguishes only when the needle reaches the 5 liters indication at the 3 o'clock position
    • the needle then rests at the 5 liters indication
    • As soon as OXY LOW extinguishes, the Master Caution stops flashing

The position of the Oxygen Supply On/Off switch has no impact on any of this in my tests.

All of this is intended behavior, as far as I can tell.

Do you see anything different? If so, please create a short track to showcase the issue, for instance from the Caucasus -> Instant Action -> Takeoff from runway mission.

Have you pushed or hit another button while holding the test button? The button or knob you pushed first then stays in the state you chose. Happens to me sometimes when being in a hurry. E.g. push and hold the Ox test button and close the canopy at the same time.

Brrrrrrrrrrrt

I'd rather call in a Strike Eagle...

I see that the the button poppes back after releasing it, so there should be no conflict..

And the only happens if the green supply lever of the regulator is On.

I'll check it again and make a track file..

I'll get back on it..🙂

Okay tried it several times.

Bat On,Inverter On, regulator supply lever On as per default.

This time it worked okay, but after a few more presses on the test button it kept spinning again.

The animation of the testbutton shows pressed in when i Click on it and releases as i should all the time, but once in a while it seems that the function of the button reverses.
so then,  if i press it when it is spinning , the needle returns to zero. very strange.

Made no track yet, because it is so random.

Ah well i can live with it 🙂, maybe someone will recognize the bug also later on and make a clearer discription of it.

 

Regards, and thanks for the replies

Yep that's weird, never saw that before. Was this only after the latest update?
