Can you find info on how this looks? (that does not come from Falcon or DCS)
These are power up lines plus the "multicolor prism":

For initial test page and error clear, I saw them in our BMS session. DCS if it has should be a recent addition, will ask around.
Airbus code for ADIRS might be useful for INS alignment and implementation.
The things I miss in the F-16 startup sequence are:
- Secondary Engine Control System (nozzle > 0 deg; to check nozzle)
- EPU Check (EPU Generator test; done with oxygen)
I can provide procedures for both (RNLAF F-16AM M2), also for FLCS BIT, INS ALIGN and some other if required.
From Mudspike's DCS guide. Lines reference.
@legoboyvdlp Could you have a look at the SEC lights when you've got spare time?
If DCS manual is correct, we have a bug.
FLCS PMG should illuminate when FLCS TEST comes on.
In flightgear, FLCS PMG illuminates when you push to TEST and then release. It does not illuminate when switch is in TEST, but rather afterwards. It should extinguish after you release TEST, and then come on when JFS switch is set to 1 or 2.
Also, when you switch from BATT to MAIN PWR, ELEC SYS and SEC lights should turn on.
Never trust DCS too much. I think @NikolaiVChr made it according to the HAF manual, I guess better waiting for him to confirm. And yes we are missing the SEC lights on the warn panel. I recall saying it to you in Discord also ;)
