Click on the Guidance button in the lower left corner of the screen. The set of buttons revealed
will depend on whether the Dashboard is running as a Master or Slave. Each button is explained
below.

- Places the sensor into a ‘sleep mode’ and the rotor ceases spinning. The
Dashboard remains active and connected to the sensor ready for operations. This mode is
suitable for use when travelling between locations.
•
Suspend and Exit
- Places the sensor into the same ‘sleep mode’ as the suspend command
(discussed above) and also closes the RadaScan Dashboard program.
•
Disconnect
- Ceases communications between the sensor and the Dashboard computer.
The sensor is unaffected and if tracking is in progress, it will continue.
•
Reset Comms
- Re-initialises communications between the Dashboard and sensor.
•
Exit
- Closes down a slave Dashboard without affecting the sensor.
