B. During a second brief press (as well as for the following brief presses)
· For 0.3s
If the radar is in "TL" or "BZ" and locked, there is relaunch of the telemetry in the axis of the
echo with the possibility of engaging from a distance 150 m greater than that of the previously
hooked echo.
· From 0.3 to 0.8s
If the radar is in "TL" and locked, telemetry is restarted as before.
If the radar is in "BZ" and locked, the antenna scan is restarted from the middle of the furthest
line close to the elevation of the initial echo.
· Beyond 0.8s
In «BZ» resuming of normal scanning.
In “TL” normal relaunch.
C. Maintained held
If the radar is in "TL" or “BZ", engagement is forbidden and appearance of the cannon 300 reticle.
12- Additional information and possibilities given by the radar
A. The horizon
It is a representation of the attitude of the aircraft (information coming from the gyroscopic
assembly) by a horizon bar and a model moving in roll and pitch.
Two potentiometers on the indicator scope control box allow:
- by means of the "LH" potentiometer to display and adjust the brightness of the horizon
and the radial velocity marker
- by means of the "CH" potentiometer to move the model vertically in an area of the
screen where the map offers no interest
B. Status LEDs
The 4 status LEDs are located on the right side of the indicator;
- the amber "AP" (parametric amplifier) indicator lamp indicates by lighting up that the
parametric amplifier is out of service until thermal stabilization is reached
- the red “TCH” (too hot) signals:
· by flashing, a conditioning defect of the right or left URPs
· by illumination, a fault in the conditioning of the nose cone or an abnormal
temperature rise
- the red "EMI" (emission failure) light: this light is on when the radar selector is on “EM”
and this does not take place for one of the following reasons:
· no emission
· the warm-up sequence is not complete
· nose cone conditioning fault, the "TCH" light is also on
· test triggered (on “EM”)
NOTE: When the radar selector is on "V", the "EMI" warning light is on.
