D.7.5 Configuring Ribbon Display Software
To run the IRIS software for ribbon display support, your system must be licensed for this
feature and you must have operator privilege. Check with your system manager.
Overview
The ribbon display setup utility provides the following functions:
• Runway approach and departure corridors are assigned to each line of the display.
• Up to 8 displays can be configured for each IRIS workstation and the lines for each
display can be set independently.
• Up to 4 configurations can be saved. This is used for installations where different active
runway assignments may require different display layouts.
Configure Ribbon Displays Using the ribsetup Utility
After you have defined your protected areas, the ribsetup utility is used to define the
appearance of the ribbon display, that is, what runway information is displayed on each line
of each ribbon display.
To start the
ribsetup utility you must be an operator. Open a terminal window and type:
$ ribsetup &
The ribsetup utility appears as shown below:
When the menu first comes up it is in "select" mode. You can select among up to four
different configurations that have been pre-defined. In the previous example, 2
configurations are defined-one for runway 33 and the other for runway 15. The other 2
configurations are unused.
The configurations should be made to correspond to the actual runways that are typically
used together in operation. When the terminal area is reconfigured in response to a new
wind direction, this menu is used to select the appropriate ribbon display for the new
configuration.
