3.4  BASIC OPERATIONS 
 
 
3.4.1    Start Transmission [TX/PRF] 
 
 
  Procedure    1  Press [TX/PRF] key. 
 
The radar will start transmission and the antenna will start rotating. 
The indication    STANDBY    at the upper left of the radar display changes to   
TRANSMIT . 
 
 
Note:  The radar does not start transmission if you press [TX/PRF] key while    PREHEAT    is 
indicated. 
 
 
 
3.4.2    Stop Transmission [STBY] 
 
 
  Procedure    1  Press [STBY] key. 
 
The radar will stop transmission and the antenna will stop rotating. 
The indication    TRANSMIT    at the upper left of the radar display changes to   
STANDBY . 
 
*  Software  button  յ  located  at  the  top  left  corner  of  the  radar  display  described  in  Section  2.3.1  is  also 
available to start/stop transmission. 
 
 
 
3.4.3    Change Range (Observation Range Scale) [RANGE+/-] 
 
 
  Procedure    1  Press the [RANGE +] key to expand the observation range. 
 
A larger observation range allows observation of a wider area. 
However, objects are shown smaller as the range expands, and objects near own ship are 
less likely to be detected.    Therefore, use a lower-level observation range to observe the 
area around own ship. 
 
2  Press the [RANGE -] key to reduce the observation range. 
 
Area around own ship can be observed in detail as the observation range is reduced.   
Note, however, distant images cannot be displayed. 
 
*  Software  button  ձ  located  at  the  top  left  corner  of  the  radar  display  described  in  Section  2.3.1  is  also 
available to switch the range.
