Using Range Rings
Use the Range Rings to quickly determine the distance to a target.
The lower-right corner of the screen contains two scales. The scale
value represents the distance from the center of the radar display to
the outermost complete ring. The top scale represents this value. The
bottom scale represents the ring separation or the distance between
the Range Rings. Use the RANGE keys to zoom in or out. The tick
marks on the Range Rings are arranged with major tick marks at 30
degree increments and minor tick marks every ve degrees. The tick
marks can help in quickly determining the azimuth to a target.
