1.5 Operation Conventions
The main radar (Model 1712 or 1622) must
be powered and transmitting to display the
radar picture on the remote display. If the
main radar is off, in standby, or there is
antenna trouble, the remote display shows
the indications HD-SIG-MISS and BP-SIG-
MISS.
RANGE, GAIN and STC controls
•
The RANGE, GAIN and STC controls are
commonly set. (Other controls may be
independently set.) That is, when one of
those controls is adjusted, the main radar
or remote display receiving the command
is automatically set accordingly. STC and
GAIN adjustment methods (automatic
and manual) are also commonly
switched.
•
The last-operated control among GAIN,
RANGE and STC takes priority when the
main radar and remote display are
operated simultaneously. Therefore, if
your command was not accepted the
reason may be simultaneous operation.
•
Range is commonly set regardless of
range setting on the menu of the main
radar and remote display. For example,
the remote display selects the 2 nm range.
The main radar also sets the 2 nm range
even if it is turned off on its menu.
