Turning off DDIs also turns off AMPCD

When I turn off both DDIs by their control knobs above them, the AMPCD will also switch off (and maybe the HUD, unless I remember it wrong). I haven't studied the real jet manuals on this, it might be correct if the brightness knob of the AMPCD isn't also an on/off switch.

Kind of related it might be something I'm doing wrong but sometimes I just run off right engine power during INS alignment, and when I spool the left, sometiems the left DDI and MPCD shut off and go through their power-up sequences again.

Strange DDI switch off behavior

 

I’ve just landed in the case1 landing instant mission and noticed some strange DDI switch off/on behavior. It looks like a bug to me, but maybe somebody knows better.

 

 

I switched off the left DDI first and then the right. For some reason, the HUD and the AMPCD also turned black after switching off the right DDI.

Then I turned on the right DDI again, only the HUD came back with it. Then after switching on the left DDI again, the AMPCD came back too.

 

 

(I did not switch of anything before that, so the engines and generators were online)

 

 

Are they in any way linked together? Seems odd.
