DESCRIPTION
The PRIMUS
R
650 Weather Radar System consists of the following
components:
D Receiver transmitter antenna (RTA)
D Weather radar controller.
NOTE: Two radar controllers can be installed.
When a single controller is used, all weather radar displays show the
same radar data. When dual controllers are used and neither one is
turned off, weather radar displays are controlled by the on--side
controller . If one controller is turned off, the radar displays are controlled
by the active controller .
When the system is in the weather detection mode, storm intensity
levels are displayed in four bright colors on a black background. Areas
of very heavy rainfall are displayed in magenta, heavy rainfall in red,
less severe rainfall in yellow, moderate rainfall in green, and little or no
rainfall in black (background).
Range marks and numbers are displayed in contrasting colors to help
evaluate storm cells.
Selecting the ground mapping mode (GMP/MAP button) improves the
resolution and enhances small targets at short ranges. The reflected
signals from various ground surfaces are displayed as magenta,
yellow,orcyan (most to least reflective).
WARNING
THE WEATHER SYSTEM PERFORMS ONLY THE FUNCTIONS OF
WEATHER DETECTION OR GROUND MAPPING. IT IS NOT
INTENDED TO BE USED OR RELIED UPON FOR PROXIMITY
W ARNING OR ANTICOLLISION PROTECTION.
