GROUND MAPPING (MAP) MODE
The radar can be put into Ground Mapping mode by pressing the MODE
key. Ground Mapping Mode is indicated by the word MAP in the lower
left corner of the display.
In Ground Mapping mode the inner knob controls the radar gain. The
present setting is indicated by the white arc on the knob icon.
AUTO STANDBY
To help reduce the possibility of leaving the radar in the ON mode after
landing, the KMD 850 has an Auto Standby capability. The KMD 850 will
automatically put the radar into Standby when the aircraft’s ground
speed goes below 30 knots. The message “WX Alert - Radar switched
to STANDBY mode.” will pop up on any page when this occurs as
shown in the following figure.
Note: This feature may be enabled or dis-
abled during system configuration only by a qualified service technician.
