Mark points.
- Mark points occupy steer points 26-30 (so you only got 5!!)
- To slave sensors to a mark point it must be made the current steerpoint, by selecting from on the STPT page, or cycling the ICP Steerpoint rocker.
- New marks are stored in the next available steerpoint slots, and when they are all used up the slots are overwritten in sequence.
- When you make a successful mark, it will show up as a large X on the HSD.
To make mark points.
1. Click on the 'MARK' button on ICP one or more
times to select the mark type (Overfly, FCR, HUD, TGP).
HUD
2. Make sure AG mode is selected from ICP,
3. press DMS UP, to make hud 'SOI' (you'll see a '*', top left if you done it right!)
4. use CURSOR CONTROL to move the cursor as desired.
5. TMS UP, to slow the cursor for accuracy.
6. TMS UP again to create a MARK.
7. TMS DOWN to return to boresight. (can be done after
step 5 also, before a Mark point is made).
FCR
2. Make sure AG mode is selected from ICP
3. Make GM FCR the SOI with DMS (left generally)
4. Click the OSB 8 on the FCR mfd, to select SP mode.
5. TMS UP, to allow the cursor to be slewed.
6. Use PINKY to zoom in on the target (and gain if
necessary)
7. With cursor over the target (and Mark FCR
type selected from ICP), TMS UP to make a mark.
TGP
2. Make sure AG mode is selected from the ICP
3. Make TGP SOI, with DMS (right generally).
4. TMS DOWN, to boresight the sensor,
5. SLEW the cursor, and ground stabilise with TMS UP
6. Fine tune, with PINKY, and ANT (for zoom)
7. TMS UP SHORT, to make the MARK.
Overfly
2 . Make sure AG mode
is selected from the ICP
3. When you are over the

Very handy for situation awareness especially when we can data link this info. I always find CAS a pain in the rear because i have trouble finding stuff. If someone in a flight spots the targets first this will be a fantastic asset to get weapons on target quickly and in a coordinated way.
