radar system. The power--up default is the last pilot selection. Tilt
control mode is active while in weather, ground map, test or
weather/ARL mode.
Auto tilt mode is selected

softkey label is active. The tilt
annunciation field displays
Tilt Auto . Auto tilt permits
the antenna position to be
automatically adjusted to
maintain a common beam
intercept point with the earth.
For example, if the last 10%
of the display is ground
returns, then during ascent or descent, the antenna automatically
changes to maintain ground returns on 10% of the display.
Manual tilt is selected by
activating the MAN bezel
softkey label. The default tilt
value is the last commanded
manual tilt value and is
displayed in the manual tilt
field. Manual tilt mode has a
range of 15.0. --15.0
represents the extreme
counterclockwise rotation
and +15.0 represents the
extreme clockwise rotation. The tilt display value can be adjusted
in 0.25--degree increments using the joystick knob.
When the MAN bezel softkey label is active, the tilt annunciation
field displays TILT followed by the digital readout and Down for
negative values or Up for positive values.
