Ar 234 cockpit: wrong dial for the "Bombsight wind speed" function

I have checked the ingame cockpit of the Ar 234 and in my opinion the function of the "(Gunsight range adjustment)/Bombsight wind speed" (keystroke: RAlt + Semicolon/Period) shows the wrong dial:

The correct dial to the ingame function "Bombsight wind speed" would be the "Wind speed transmitter IGW 1B": Fl.52832 Windgeschwindigkeitsgeber, IWG 1, 1944 | Deutscheluftwaffe

 

But it shows the "Air speed transmitter IEG 1": Fl.52831 Eigengeschwindigkeitsgeber, IEG 1, 1944 | Deutscheluftwaffe

 

The official manual for the Ar 234 "Luft T. 2234 B-2" from 1944 mentioned on page 145 the compostion for the Bombenzielanlage (BZA):

 

Pilot Visor PV 1 B

Altitude corrector IHKG 1 Fl.52830 Höhenkorrekturgeber, IHKG 1, 1944 | Deutscheluftwaffe

Wind speed transmitter IGW 1B: Fl.52832 Windgeschwindigkeitsgeber, IWG 1, 1944 | Deutscheluftwaffe

Gyro Guard IKW 1B

 

but not the Air speed transmitter IEG 1: Fl.52831 Eigengeschwindigkeitsgeber, IEG 1, 1944 | Deutscheluftwaffe

 

It looks like the dials were inadvertently reversed. Could please check this issue?

 

Cheers
