Belphe Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 Hi, Is there a way to edit a steerpoint created by pressing TMS Right Short? I find my steerpoints not precise enough after cycling through them from a different position. I'd like to be able to edit SP "B" and overwrite it's coordinates instead of creating a new one. Thanks Never say never, Baby! [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacTheGoon Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 Those would be called mark points, and once they are placed they can only be cleared by either: A. Making enough (A-Y) that they cycle back over the old ones or B: Cycling your CICU/CDU off and on.

Belphe Posted April 10, 2018 Author Share Posted April 10, 2018 Markpoints - of course! <facepalm> Thank you for explaining this to me. Never say never, Baby! [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dino Might Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 You can clear markpoints without cycling the CICU. Will have to go back and muck with it to remember the pages to select. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shawnpatrick5000 Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 Are you lasing when you create markpoints? This could improve the accuracy you mention... can always put the laser to Latch on. Sent from my SM-G920V using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frederf Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 You can edit the following aspects of a mark point: Waypoint identifier Scale mode Steering mode VNAV mode DTOT/DTTG that is it. If you want to edit more about the point then you must make a copy to a numbered mission waypoint and then edit that. A little help on terminology. Steerpoint is the one point the airplane is currently steering to. You can only have one steerpoint. A waypoint is selected to become the steerpoint. There are five types of waypoints: Initial position Mission waypoints Navigation waypoints Mark points Mark point (LASTE weapons event) You can only edit the position values for the first two kinds.
