Display always shows TCAS STBY

As mentioned in the title; the display always shows TCAS STBY even though TCAS knob is set to TA/RA.

Thanks..

There’s a knob on the TCAS panel bottom left that is turned to off - turn it to on by clicking it

I  tried both TA and TA/RA knob without success, but apparently there are two more that need to be set. One titled STBY-AUTO-ON and the other OFF-ON. This Airbus is a different beast than the  737. 🙂

Likewise. I've never seen an ON/OFF switch on that panel before, Airbus or not. There's usually only the STBY-AUTO-ON and STBY-TA-TA/RA. TCAS still works with it OFF, displaying traffic and TA/RA mode on the ND, so one way or another something is wrong.

Correction, the ON/OFF switch is there in the Fenix but it defaults to ON. I've never noticed it because it's already in the ON position.
