dar sensor is connected to the display unit and that the settings on the display unit
are correct (see the operator’s manual for the display unit).
3. Transmit and confirm that radar echoes appear on the display.

display units, confirm and set the antenna rotation speed, align the heading,
suppress the main bang, set sector blanking area(s), set the tuning mode, and
tune the radar manually. See the display unit’s installation manual for the pro-
cedure.
