Multi Function Displays

The BRT and CON switches on the MFD mount corners can be used to adjust brightness and contrast.

GAIN is only used in FCR GM mode.

Main Menu

If you click on the button for the page you are already in, you get into the main menu.

SMS Page

Clicking on button (OBS) next to a station will select Store Management System page. Each station has 2 or 3 lines of text, that details pylon mounted, rack/rail mounted on pylon and weapon(s) mounted on the rack or directly on the pylon. J-S will jettison the selected station. Not all payload types can be jettisoned, same for racks. If CAT shows greater than 1, then you should set the flightcontrols to CAT III on left panel and opposite.

FCR Page

See Radar

HSD Page

Horizontal Situation Display. Shows route, aircraft on datalink, bullseye, threat-circles, mark points and radar target that has ground-track info.

  • DEP: Depressed ownship in display.
  • CEN: Centered ownship in display.
  • CPL: Range will follow radar distance so that entire radar range is within the HSD.
  • DCPL: Range can be set independently of radar range by clicking on the up/down arrows.

In F-16 menu you can load Lines 1 (full drawn) and Lines 2 (segmented) in Preplanning Dialog. Those will also be shown on the HSD.

SWAP

Swap what is shown on the displays from left to right and opposite.

SOI

The Sensor of Interest (SOI) is selected using DMS (Shift + Arrow Key). DMS Forward selects HUD as SOI. DMS Aft selects the left MFD as SOI, and further DMS Aft toggles between left / right MFD. The SOI may then be manipulated with the cursor (only enabled for FCR as of now).
