Getting the laser to combat mode
-
So I’ve read the manual, and when I’m master arm/laser armed the laser stays in training mode. When I look at the laser “page” on the DED it says training mode for both AA and AG. I know it stays in training mode for AA, but where can I go to switch the AG mode to combat so I can designate for my LGBs? Gotta be missing something simple.
-
just put the cursors(dcs down) on the “TRNG” after AG and hit any icp button (ie 5) it will flash and changed to CMBT.

I just had this same problem, after a closer look at the TGP documentation i found that the way to switch it to combat mode is to put the scratchpad onto the A-G mode and then simply press any of the numbers on the ICP followed by Enter.
Edit: damnit Sting beat me by 1 minute

Select A/G mode. Select List…0…5. Doppler down to training and select “0/MSEL”. It should change to “Combat”.

Thanks all,loving this realism!

As the manuals says, any numeral key on the ICP will switch laser mode when the scratchpad is correctly.
When you have such kind of troubles, use the training docs and the specific training missions. That will enlighten the procedure taking you step by step.
We know it’s hard to find the needle you search for in the manual haystack. That’s why we created the training docs with step by step specific things. The needle is then much easier found

in fact the manual is written in a reference style and not in a textbook style. So while the manual is quite helpful I think it should be supplemented by youtube tutorials. That way the user can learn quickly (youtube tutorials) and in the same time have a bank of information (the manual) whenever more details are sought after.

There will always be 2 kind of learners. The guys who wants manuals and the kind who wants videos, that is expected.
Don’t worry the videos are created by the community and will be quickly available.
