markturner Posted November 14, 2010 Share Posted November 14, 2010 (edited) Hi, I am programming my HOTAS and in the manual, combat employment section, under Shkval target designation, it refers to 2 buttons, one on the cyclic "designate target", which I can find and assign (O) no problem. The other , on the collective referred to as "automatic target lock" , I have looked and looked & I cannot find in the controls section to map. Can anyone tell me the keypress for this? ( I am presuming its different to "Lock Target") ( Its a shame the manual does not give you the keyboard shortcut for these instead of the russian language symbols, which are frankly, not much help..!) cheers, Mark Edited November 14, 2010 by markturner i7 950 4.2ghz, 6GB Corsair 1600 hz, GTX580, Asus Sabertooth, Win 7 64 bit. 260.99 drivers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KillaALF Posted November 14, 2010 Share Posted November 14, 2010 Cut'n'Paste from the manual (new 6-10/old 2-10): "8. “АВТ ЗАХВ” button. Toggles target acquisition and lock when using Shkval [ENTER]." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markturner Posted November 14, 2010 Author Share Posted November 14, 2010 Thanks - the manual is a bit confusing sometimes i7 950 4.2ghz, 6GB Corsair 1600 hz, GTX580, Asus Sabertooth, Win 7 64 bit. 260.99 drivers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Speed Posted November 14, 2010 Share Posted November 14, 2010 (edited) the manual is a bit confusing sometimes A bit of an understatement. I don't speak Russian, so sorry, when it starts talking about the backwards-"R", f***d-up-looking-"A" button, I'm at a loss. I never learned the PVI-800 very well because of this:no_sad: Edited November 14, 2010 by Speed Intelligent discourse can only begin with the honest admission of your own fallibility.

Bucic Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 (edited) [sOLVED] so a bit of OT below: A bit of an understatement. I don't speak Russian, so sorry, when it starts talking about the backwards-"R", f***d-up-looking-"A" button, I'm at a loss. I never learned the PVI-800 very well because of this:no_sad: It's not your fault. The English manual should have no exotic letters anywhere except some appendix maybe. That's that. Edit: You've never learned the PVI you say... :sly: Well, maybe this will help (by Frederf) From my old notes :book: PVI-800 and inu points instruction videos topic http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=47579 (lat longitude data entry on the second page of the topic) + discussion and YouTube vid on 'autopilot system to fly a preset route' A teaser :) If you have problems with Russian inscriptions just make a side by side image with English vs Russian in-cockpit inscription OR put Notes within your pdf manual OR isolate the chapter about PVI and edit it using a PDF editor.
