TGP issue (A-G vs NAV)

[rtavest]

Question (maybe a bug):

In campaign I switched to A-G mode on the ICP and then activated the TGP on the MFD (from standby to A-G).
Then I switched back to NAV mode on the ICP (and leave the TGP activated).

From NAV mode I selected the TGP on the MFD and it was on standby.
I switched back to A-G mode, selected the TGP and it was active.

Is this normal behaviour? I expected the TGP to remain active in all modes.

Ist’s normal. Each master mode requiers tgp mode to be set.

[rtavest]

Okay. So when I switch the master mode, the TGP (the pod) goes into the last set mode?

During ramp start it’s good practise to go over all your master modes and set mfd’s/tgp etc as you want them for each. And just need to double check the settings during fence in.
So yes, when you set NAV in A-A mode for example, and in A-G mode with north pointer and blast radius for master mode A-G, it will always switch between those settings when you switch master modes.

Clear answer. Thank you!

[Focaldesign]

You’re welcome. What I haven’t tested yet, is different polarity in master modes, if that is also separate for each mode. Eg A-A in TV mode, A-G in black-hot and nav in white-hot.

Master mode is the only parameter that isn’t shared, all else should be same.
