In order to change the bearing of the line,
click on it. Then click and hold the line
anywhere but not on the small handle and
rotate it to the desired bearing.
The balloon-text shows the actual bearing
and distance data of the line.
To reset the PI lines to the default state, right-click in the PPI and choose Reset
PI lines in the context menu. The lines are set to 45° and 25% or 50% of the
display range to both sides of the PPI-center.
The PI can also be switched on or selected by means of the radar keyboard. Press
the key for a short time. The PI are switched on in numerical order, starting with the one that
had been used last. To switch off a specific PI, use the checkboxes 1...4 in the PI group or
select the specific PI with a short keypress on the PI-button and then switch off by pressing it
for about 2 seconds.
Depending on the system configuration, the Non-permanent Area of the radar may not show every object
described in this part. For example, if there is no Trackpilot in the system, the appropriate expander is
not shown. Anyway, every possible expander will be described here.
In order to save space, a number of expanders have been combined into groups contained in three index
cards: Alarms, Presentation, Tools and Settings:
