Initial Setup
You must initially configure the radar for your intended application at the installation site
to ensure proper operation. At least an appropriate application mode and clutter time
constant should be selected, clutter map initialized and lanes defined.
To configure the radar, you must provide DC power within the specified requirements,
connect the radar’s RS232 interface to a Windows PC RS232 COM port (or a USB to
serial adapter) and use Houston Radar Configuration Utility or Houston Radar Stats
Analyzer.
Note: only newer versions of Configuration Utility and Stats Analyzer support PD420.
Please contact Houston Radar for the latest version if a disk was not shipped with your
radar or you have misplaced it.
Green LED flashes when radar is running giving
a visual indication of the system status. In the
PD420-OFD/PD420-OFD version green LED
may be installed on the front or the back
depending on the requested build option.
