Can't enter TACAN and ILS into DED
-
I don’t know whether this is a bug or I’m just missing something. I follow this procedure, but when I try to get the scratchpad active, nothing happens. The only control that works on the DCS is RET. The down arrow doesn’t work at all. I just see the CMD STRG highlighted and no matter what I press on the ICP nothing happens.
Could I be making a simple mistake somewhere?

My best guess, might be a key binding issue. I don’t know if you’re using your mouse and clicking or some sort of device.

There are 4 click zones around the data command switch (DCS) for the four directions. Those should be more reliable than any keys/keyfile.
T-ILS page has 3 entry fields. Default is the channel/band/frequency area and the other two are course and command steering toggle. For the toggle usually the M-SEL 0 key is the key and in other cases it accepts any key.

Possible binding issue. Possible he just forgot the CNI switch was in backup still.

I could still enter bingo, etc. I was just clicking on “down” and nothing was happening.
I’ll give it another go tonight and see if I can replicate it.

Not sure what the problem was, but on a second run through it all went through properly.
