17.2.4 Adjusting MBS 
MBS (Main Bang Suppression) adjustment is to adjust a display unit processing circuit in order to 
suppress main bang, which is the reflection signal from a microwave transmission circuit of a 
waveguide that normally appears as an image of a circle at the center of the radar screen.   
Perform MBS adjustment by using the [MBS] dialog. 
 
 
 
Do not change Initial Level/Area Offset unless absolutely necessary. 
Incorrect adjustment will result in deletion of nearby target images and 
thus collisions may occur resulting in death or serious injuries.
