CV9035-NL commanders periscope controlls

[Lumituisku]

Yeah I guess there are not really any tutorials :/

Anyway, the 9035NL TC has two palm switches, left and right.

• with no palmswitches pressed, the peri will not move by itself
  
• holding down only the left palmswitch will make the peri follow the gun
  
• holding down only the right palmswitch will stabilize it (within limits.. +- 30 degrees azimuth)
  
• only if both are active will the TC override the GNR.
  

Now, depending whether you have left or right palmswitch pressed before you press the 'other' one (ie before the TC takes control away from the GNR), the peri will either move to the gun or the gun to the peri.

Sorry to reply here once again. I did try this long time ago when you posted this message but I didn't get it working then. I was so fustrated that I thought that I'm doing something wrong and it felt so difficult to do from keyboard. So I cave up at the time.

Today I finally went to experiment again.

as summary to all others who still have not understood how commanders position on cv9035-NL works.. here is how I understand it and how it works to me from default keyboard settings.

For controlling commanders peri there is two keys. UP arrow and DOWN arrow... and these are sticky. So press once to activate feature.

UP arrow key could be described as key that either makes peri independent or locked with turret.

Down arrow key activates movement. Either peri will go to gun or gun to peri.

So shortly how to assign targets to gunner in cv9035-NL as commander.
OR... how I would do it currendly.

(I recomment to) Have your peri locked to turret, None of keys UP or DOWN activated

When you see target - in case if you're unbuttoned and looking around with binoculars. - hit F2 for Commanders TI - Thought personally I would Hit alt+F4 (commanders unity sight) and right after R to open shield in front of it. - This way you can see wide area and designing target is a little faster / easier.[/color]

Hit UP arrow key to free peri - Then. - move peri to target with mouse or joustict.

Hit down arrow key to move gun to peri. Hit down arrow once again when gunner says identified to stop over-riding gunner.

Look around for more targets, or hit UP arrow to lock peri. So you will know what gunner is doing.

While scanning with independent peri - If you dont find anything, and gunner finds target. quicly hit UP arrow to lock peri with turret and then Down arrow  to move peri to gun. Remember to press Down once more after sigh is aligned with gun to free palmswich. (Not necessary but helps remembering) And in case if you want to continue looking around... once more UP arrow to have peri independent

While scanning with independent peri - If you find target hit down arrow and gun will be aligned with peri. Then to continue scanning just simply hit down once more.
