Transmit Mode
The following functions are only available when the
radar is in Transmit mode:
 Pulse Length
 Display and selection of target data
 Video Processing Controls (video Gain, Rain and Sea anti clutter
control)
 Radar Fine Tuning
If you are not familiar with using the radar system, it is strongly
recommended that you read `System Controls’ on page 2.2. This describes
how to use the external controls in order to operate the system.
If you are already familiar with the system controls and want to start
transmitting, go straight to Chapter 3 `Basic Operation of Radar’.
Standby/Transmit Mode in Dual Radar
In a dual radar system the transceivers for each channel may be
individually switched between Standby and Transmit.
Each channel includes a video indicator button. The video button for
Channel 1 is always on the upper line and Channel 2 is on the lower line.
For information on Standby and Transmit mode and video On/Off control
for a Dual Channel Radar, refer to `
Dual Radar – Transmit and Video Mode
Selection ’ Chapter 3 `Basic Operation of Radar’.
