Datalink with Shval Problem

[ZoomBoy27]

I keep having trouble sending my Wingman to a datalink position entered into ABRIS by Shkval

 

The steps I take are as follows:

• Check on the PVTz-800 Off-Board Targeting Data Link Mode Panel to see if my ID Number Dial is set to `1` and Data Mode is set to COMmander
  
• On the Targeting Mode Control Panel - turn on `Automatic turn on target` and `Automatic tracking – gun sight`
  
• Uncage the Shkval
  
• Turn on Targeting Laser
  
• Slew the Shkval to the position (follow on the ABRIS)
  
• Lock the Position (a distance to Target will show up on my Shkval TV Monitor)
  
• Hit Ingress button on the Datalink Panel [LeftSHIFT-4]
  
• and then Send/Receive Memory on the Datalink Panel [LeftSHIFT-U]
  
• Do a Target Reset(BackSpace) and the point is stored into the ABRIS system. It'll show up on the ABRIS as a little Blue house
  
• On the Datalink Panel - I then hit Ingress button, hit DLINK to Wingman 2, and then Hit Ingress button again to select the correct Datalink point - On ABRIS, both the Datalink Point and Wingman2 will be flashing
  
• Then hit Send/Receive Memory on the Datalink Panel to send Datalink Point to my Wingman2
  
• The Datalink Panel clears and the wingman should be have my datalink point
  
• I then issue, through the Comms menu, either a Goto command or Reconnoitre to the Datalink Point command to my Wingman - A voice command is issued
  
• My Wingman2 responds `Unable` or `Negative`
  

 

When I send my wingman out to reconnoitre, input some targets into ABRIS, and then order him to attack a datalink Target, he completes that task

 

I`ve attached a Track of what`s happening

 

Any help would be appreciated

Dont use ingress point.

 

Use one of the other 3 options being Ground, AA or static.

 

Ingress point is only for use with other points.

 

Say you want your wingman to attack or do something from a specific vector. You can then send him a target point(ground,aa,static) + a ingress point.

 

He will then fly to the ingress point and from there move to the target point.

 

Try using the static instead of ingress and you will see it working with the recon.
