Note: Under normal circumstances you will not need to adjust these settings, as they are set automatically at the factory. If these parameters are set incor-

rectly the performance of the radar will be adversely affected. Access to the

menu is therefore via a hidden key press.

To change the settings:

1.Press the MENU key to display the set up soft keys.

2.Press and hold the blank soft key directly to the right of the RADAR SET UP soft key for 5 seconds. The Advanced Settings menu is then displayed.

3.Use the trackpad to move the selection bar to the required option.

4.Use the soft keys to increase or decrease the slider setting. As soon as you start to adjust the setting, the menu page is cleared so that you can see the effects of the adjustment on the radar picture, and the radar is set to 1/8nm range.

5.Press ENTER to display the menu again.

6.Press CLEAR to return to the Menu soft keys, and CLEAR again to return to normal operation.

If required, you can recall the factory defaults for this page. To do so, move the selection bar to the SCANNER RESET option, press the ADVANCED SETTING RESET soft key, and press the YES soft key to confirm.

Display Timing

Advanced Settings

If you extended the inter-unit cable, you should have set the display timing when you first installed your system, as described in Radar System Checks and Adjustments on page 8-17.
