The Binocular option is a great way to see the control surfaces on an aircraft that is too
far away to see in the main view. Although not realistic, it does help to see the effects
of control input.
The Binocular view will automatically hide when the aircraft is close enough to be seen
in the main window. The Binocular icon will be visible to indicate that this gadget is
still active. The view will reappear when the aircraft flies off into the distance. If you
wish for the Binocular view to remain on the screen permanently, simply click the
thumbtack button in the gadget’s title bar.
To access the Binocular menu item, click the Gadgets menu title. Next, click
Binocular.
You may also load the Binocular viewport using the InterLink Elite
with the QuickSelect buttons. Press the Menu/Select button. Then
press down four times on the Data Lever until the Binocular tab is
highlighted. Press the Menu/Select
button again to activate the
Binocular viewport. Repeat these steps to remove the Binocular
viewport from the screen.
To resize the viewport, position the cursor over the arrow indication found in the
lower right corner of the viewport’s frame. Click and hold on the arrow. Using the
mouse, drag the frame according to your wishes. If you drag it downward, the vertical
size of the viewport will increase. Dragging the frame to the right or left increases or
decreases the width of the viewport accordingly.
Clicking on the ‘X’ in the title tab of the frame removes the frame from the screen.
