1.6.4.11 Target Alert Function
The RDR-1600 system has the capability to detect high-density (red level) storm cells that are present
beyond the range being displayed on the indicator when operating in the WXA mode. At each
selected range, the system looks ahead for an additional 25 miles. If a high-density storm cell (red
level) is present, the word TGT ALRT will flash on the display (The display of Target Alert will vary
with MFD – See MFDs Pilot’s Guide for more information). The function is automatic on all ranges
except the 240 nautical mile range.
When TGT ALRT occurs, the operator should increase the range setting on the display to locate the
storm and take the necessary actions to avoid the storm cell. This feature is particularly useful when
operating at short ranges during search modes.
