Zeus67 Posted February 26, 2016 Author Share Posted February 26, 2016 Can it overheat if it's on for too long or is there no reason to not do the warm-up during startup? We are seriously debating whether to simulate equipment overheat. At least for the time being, the answer is no. It won't overheat. As I said, you can do the warm-up anywhere. IMO, the best time is when you are preparing for take-off. The time it will take you to taxi and take-off will be more than enough for the radar to be ready when you are in the air.

WildBillKelsoe Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 That's the pulse repetition frequency. Basically sets how often the radar checks your surroundings. akin to f-15 frequency (hi/med) selection? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk AWAITING ED NEW DAMAGE MODEL IMPLEMENTATION FOR WW2 BIRDS Fat T is above, thin T is below. Long T is faster, Short T is slower. Open triangle is AWACS, closed triangle is your own sensors. Double dash is friendly, Single dash is enemy. Circle is friendly. Strobe is jammer. Strobe to dash is under 35 km. HDD is 7 times range key. Radar to 160 km, IRST to 10 km. Stay low, but never slow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeus67 Posted February 26, 2016 Author Share Posted February 26, 2016 *sigh* This is what happens when you rush things and do not fully test them. The warm-up period is bugged. :cry: It seems that placing the switch in P.CH does nothing. You will have to put it in SIL or EM for the warm-up period to start. :doh: Of course, this means that now you have to wait 3 minutes for the radar to become operational. :joystick: I'll fix this, but it is too late for this release. :( Sorry about that.

rrohde Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 Zeus awsome nice job are doing a great job!!!!!!!! On a side not Zeus will be making Radar to actual light green and and yellow and a smaller curser and last shorten ADI on radar as seen in picture of real Mirarge 2000C +1 ... and how about the brightness dials for the various Radar display options?

Seeing how much this update adds i doubt anyone will mind about that very minor issue =P Since having to wait 3 instead of 2 minutes is not a big deal => especially now that you have added IFF => But thanks for letting us know (so ppl know not to try using the warm-up mode) and keep up the great work.

Bearfoot Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 Hello Folks, Due to me forgetting that today is update day, I did not update the manual with the radar IFF interrogation procedure. Here's a instruction sheet in how to accomplish that. 1. This is the RDI radar IFF interrogation panel. It is located between the ISN and the RWR control panel To enable the IFF interrogation you must click the Interrogation Mode switch to either SECT or CONT. There is a bug in the panel that does not show CONT, but the switch will move. There are new key bindings (untested) for this switch: "Radar IFF OFF" "Radar IFF SECTOR" "Radar IFF CONT" Look for them in Sensors. No need to use the other switches. At least for the time being. Note: The panel is too dark and the switch is almost invisible, at least for me. You will have to hunt for it with your mouse. We will solve that particular problem in the future. To interrogate the contacts you must use the same key that is used to activate the Nose Wheel Steering. The default is "S". The IFF works by being active. That is, only friendly contacts will show a symbol. Unknown contacts will not. There are two main symbols: * A diamond for unlocked contacts that will appear on the upper left of the V symbol. * A ||V|| or |H| for locked contacts. If you see a locked contact with a double pair of vertical lines, you are targeting a friendly. Currently the symbols remain for 30 seconds, basically since this is a test. The visibility period will be modified. The PRF limitation is not enabled for this version, but it will come. Please pass the word on the instructions. Enjoy First off, thank you so much for such great ongoing work. I have some questions regarding the above: 1. Is the above figure labeled correctly (or, conversely, is the text legend correct)? It seems that the text (4) might refer to the figure (5), and maybe the text (1) and (3) should refer to the figure (3) and (4)? In which case, what is the figure (1)? 2. How are the interrogation codes used? Why are there two? 3. I thought IFF had 4 modes with 2 being civilian transponders ... or maybe that is just US?

So (3) and (4) == 3. (5) in the figure should mean 4 in the instructions. (1) is the interrogation code to be used (it relates to the IFF mode selected in the IFF control panel).

Bearfoot Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 Thanks! So, to summarize: (1) = interrogation code to be used (2) = Unknown (3) and (4) = interrogation code (5) = interrogation mode Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
