All of the inputs are used when a TDWR product is made, unless an input is "stale", that is, it
is older than a specified time (of order 120 seconds). For example, if LLWAS fails, the
Integrator continues to use the old LLWAS data until the time limit for "stale" data is
reached. If all of the data are "stale", no TDWR product is made at all. In this case, there is no
output to IRIS and the ribbon displays eventually show NO DATA AVAILABLE.

Configuring Integrator and Runways Utility - runways.conf
The configuration of the integrator and the runways utility is stored in the runways.conf
file in the IRIS_CONFIG directory which is assumed here to be the /usr/sigmet/
config directory.
The configuration steps are:
1. Create the tdwr data directory (default location /usr/iris_data/tdwr)
2. Install the runways.conf file (default location /usr/sigmet/config/
runways.conf)
3. Edit the runways.conf file.
