2.3 Turning the Radar On/Off
Press the [POWER] key to turn the radar on or
off.
The control panel lights and a timer displays
the time remaining for warm up of the magne-
tron (the device which produces radar pulses),
counting down from 1:30 to 0:01.
2.4 Transmitting
After the power is turned on and the magnetron
has warmed up, STBY (Stand-By) appears at
the screen center. This means the radar is now
fully operational. In stand-by the radar is avail-
able for use at anytime - but no radar waves are
being transmitted.
Press the [STBY TX] key to transmit.
When transmitting, any echoes from targets
appear on the display. This radar displays ech-
oes in eight tones of green according to echo
strength.
2.5 Stand-by
When you won’t be using the radar for an ex-
tended period, but you want to keep it in a state
of readiness, place it in stand-by by pressing
the [STBY TX] key. The display shows
“STBY,” navigation data, or goes into the
economy mode depending on menu setting.
(More on menu operation later.)
Economy mode
The CRT can be set to automatically turn itself
off when in stand-by, to reduce power consump-
tion. This feature is called the “economy mode.”
Power consumption in the economy mode is 28
W. When the economy mode is on, the lamp
next to the [POWER] key lights.
Navigation data display during
stand-by
If a navigation aid inputs navigation data to this
radar, navigation data can be displayed during
stand-by. You can turn the navigation data dis-
play on/off through the menu. Figure 2-3 shows
a typical navigation data display during stand-
by.
