Figure 4-85 Sector Scan - 40°
6) If desired, readjust the Bearing Line as discussed previously to change the
center of the Sector Scan.
7) Remove Sector Scanning by returning the SECTOR SCAN value to FULL.
4.10.6.6 Antenna Stabilization
1) While viewing the Weather Radar page of the Wx page group, press the
CONTROL soft key.
2) To activate or deactivate the antenna stabilization, press the STAB ON soft key
to activate antenna stabilization or press the STAB OFF soft key to deactivate.
The current stabilization condition is shown in the upper right of the weather
radar display.
4.10.6.7 Weather Attenuated Color Highlight (WATCH™)
(GWX Radars Only)
While in horizontal scan mode, this feature can be used as a tool to determine
areas of possible inaccuracies in displayed intensity due to weakening of the
radar energy. This weakening is known as “attenuation.” The radar energy
weakens as it passes through areas of intense precipitation, large areas of lesser
precipitation, and distance. Issues with the radome will also attenuate the radar
energy. All these factors have an effect on the return intensity. The more energy
that dissipates, the lesser the displayed intensity of the return. Accuracy of the
displayed intensity of returns located in the shaded areas are suspect. Make
maneuvering decisions with this information in mind. Proper antenna tilt
management should still be employed to determine the extent of attenuation in
a shaded area.
1) While viewing the Weather Radar page of the Wx page group, press the
CONTROL soft key.
2) To activate or deactivate the WATCH™ feature, press the WATCH soft key.
