Snoopy Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 IFF ant is the IFF antenna switch which selects which antenna receives the signal UHF ant is no longer in our ACFT, there use to be multiple UFH antenna's egi hq tod is the EGI havequick time of day select switch arm ground safety is the Armament Ground Safety Override Switch, in the ORIDE position it overrides the ground safety circuitry. anti g suite valve test is a button the pilot can press to ensure his g suite inflates correctly once it's hooked up. 1 v303d Fighter Group Discord | Virtual 303d Fighter Group Website | v303rd Fighter Group Twitter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seed Posted July 17, 2012 Author Share Posted July 17, 2012 what is egi hq tod can you explain more what do happen if i select single or disable? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snoopy Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Has to do with the UHF radios but not going to repeat exactly what the -1 says since it's not modeled. 1 v303d Fighter Group Discord | Virtual 303d Fighter Group Website | v303rd Fighter Group Twitter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jona33 Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 what is egi hq tod can you explain more what do happen if i select single or disable? In the F-16 (vipers in the storm) the havequick/ Time of day is used on the secure radios to allow them to work together I believe. I'd assume the same is in the A-10 but since all are radios are "secure" in the DCS A-10 it's pointless. IFF and Secure voice aren't simulated but you can click the switches i think. Always remember. I don't have a clue what I'm doing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lubey Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 The arm ground safety override switch is functional in the sim as well. Comes in handy if the gear fails to retract properly! 1 SPECS: Intel Core i5 760 @ 3.2 Ghz +turboboost enabled, 12 GB DDR3 1600 @ 1500 Mhz, ATI Radeon 5850, TrackIR 5, X52 Pro and Saitek pedals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hog_driver111th Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 Seed, you're not understanding. The ground safety arm switch allows you to shoot your weapons while the landing gear is extended, which is basically what lubey said. 1 A-10C - FC3 - CA - L-39 - UH1 - P-51 - Hawk - BS2 - F-86 - Gazelle - F-5E - AV8B - F/A-18C i5-4590 - GTX 1060 - Oculus CV1 - TM:Warthog [sIGPIC]http://forums.eagle.ru/signaturepics/sigpic9979_1.gif[/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is also handy for doing tailstands like this: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
astiles Posted November 17, 2016 Share Posted November 17, 2016 (edited) The arm ground safety override switch, should it not be forced into safe mode when the guard is down? Because this is not the case. Edited November 17, 2016 by astiles [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eaglecash867 Posted November 17, 2016 Share Posted November 17, 2016 The arm ground safety override switch is functional in the sim as well. Comes in handy if the gear fails to retract properly! So the ground safety is connected to a down/lock switch and not a squat switch?
