Okay. Here is what I found. It appears that designated tracks will not go to the DEMON. User designated tracks will go to the DEMON. I also discovered that if you go to the broadband sonar screen, select a track that the Autocrew designated, you can designate the same track yourself. Then it goes to the DEMON.

The only issue I found is that on the broadband screen.. say you have 2 tracks that the Autocrew designated A and B. When you go back and designate the targets, they also get classified as C and D (as well as still being designated A and B at the same time). It's C and D that will go to the DEMON. If you go into the TMA display, there will be only two targets listed. S01 and S02.

On Narrowband however, reviewing the trackers shows only tracks A and B

I'm unsure if having two tracking letters per track is a bad thing or not but this is how it's working. It may not be a bug. It may be a thing where the Captain has to check the sonarman's work and designate the target himself. ?

I think your best bet is to do your sonar manually. That's how I usually do it anyway.
