Improved Day/Night Mode
Five types of background colors are available in Day/Dusk/Night mode (total 5
background colors). Each background color can be reproduced to be suited for the
user's operating environment by simple key operation. The radar echoes and a
variety of graphics can also be represented in different colors, ensuring easy-to-
see displays.
Compact Design and Low Power Consumption
Since an LCD has been implemented as the display device, the weight of the
display is greatly reduced and the power consumption is lowered in comparison
with the conventional radar equipment.
Self-diagnostic Program Incorporated
The Self-diagnostic program always monitors all the functions of the system. If
any function deteriorates, an alarm message will appear on the radar display and
an alarm sounds at the same time. Even when the system is operating, the
functionality test can be carried out. (except on some functions)
Performance Monitor
The radar performance (transmitted output power and receiving sensitivity) can
appear on the radar display.
Easy Interswitch Operation (Option)
If an interswitch unit (option) is connected, up to eight JMA-9172-SA radar can
be switched over by performing simple operation.
