1.2 Turning the Remote Display

1.5 Operation Conventions

On/Off
The [POWER] key turns the remote display on/off.

1.3 TX Key

The [TX] key functions to toggle the radar picture and stand-by condition. Note that the remote display cannot control the transmit and standby functions of the radar.
The main radar and remote display do not operate jointly unless a key among RANGE, GAIN or STC is operated.

1.4 LCD Tone and Brilliance

1. Press the [TONE] key. The dialog box shown in Figure 1-1 appears.
TONE: 12
LOW HIGH
The main radar (Model 1712 or 1622) must be powered and transmitting t o 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-SIG­MISS.
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 G A IN,
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.
BRILL: 3
LOW HIGH
Figure 1-2 Dialog box for adjustment of

2. Press range: 0-27): (setting range: 0-9).
Note: The dialog box for adjustment is
or to adjust tone (setting
or to adjust brilliance
automatically erased when there is no Omnipad operation for 10 seconds.
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.
2
Watchman
The watchman feature, disabled or enabled at the main radar, periodically transmits pulses to check for targets in the guard zone. For further details, see the Operator’s Manual for the main radar.
The indicatio n “WATCHMAN” appears on
the remote display and main radar when watchman is active.
The indication is shown in white on black
background for two seconds on the remote display when the [RANGE] key on the remote display is operated while Watchman is in standby. (Range command is not accepted in this case.)

1.6 Indications and Markers

Operating any key among GAIN, RANGE
and STC from the remote display while the watchman is transmit ting will automatically cancel the watchman, and the radar transmits continuously. Watchman cannot be canceled from the remote display when it is in standby.
