Target trails may be shown in monotone or multitone. Gradual shading paints the trails getting thinner with time just like the after- glow on an analog PPI radar.

Restoring trails

Trails are cancelled and restarted whenever the range is changed. However, you can con- tinue trails on the same range, without re- starting, when the range is changed to a next larger or smaller range scale. Note however that when the range is changed, only those target trails within the previous range are continued; no trails are generated for targets outside of the previous range.

No trail generated for target not within previous range

Displaying, erasing target trails

Press the [TGT TRAIL] key to activate or de- activate the target trails feature. The current target trail setting is displayed at the upper right-and corner of the screen.

To remove trails from the screen, press the [TGT TRAIL] with a hit-and-release action. (Trailing continues off screen with target trail timer counting). Press the key again to redisplay the trails.
