Entegra EX5000

4.3 Dedicated Radar in Ground Mode

Figure 4.3  Dedicated Radar in Ground Mode

1) Radar ON

—Turns the radar on in normal operation. When the 

radar is on, you can see the moving scan indicator, radar echoes, 
and the screen annunciation.

2) Radar Test

—Initiates a radar self-test function that is monitored 

by the EX5000. The test function is confirmed by the presence of 
the test annunciation and the test pattern display. During self-
test, all of the circuitry and functions of the R/T are exercised with 
the exception of the magnetron tube. No microwave energy is 
emitted in the test function. The display will have a test pattern 
with the following colors: green, yellow, red and magenta. 

3) Radar Standby

—Places the radar circuitry in an energized but 

inactive state. Standby is selected as soon as practical after 
starting the EX5000. When the radar is in standby, you will not 
see the moving scan indicator, or radar echo returns, and the 
screen annunciation says “STBY”. In Standby mode, the antenna 
is moved to in the desired park position.
