Introduction

We are able to control which segments the radar collects data from. Segments - up to 8 - as we hit the edge of the sector we stop transmitting, then once out of the sector the radar head gets turned on again. Link to radar data page - explain how to add, on radar data page. - add a page of how to do this.

Radar Data

The radar data snapshot displays a green disc which is split into 16 segments.

Sector Blanking

Often, it is not necessary for the radar to collect data from the whole disk, and this would also save bandwidth. Therefore, we have included functionality which can add a sector, or sectors to the radar data snapshot which do not send back data. You are able to configure up to 8 of these sectors. To do this, please follow the following steps:

  1. Enable the Blanking Mode in the Radar Configuration screen. Please refer to this page for information regarding this option: Vertex Radar Configuration.

  2. This will enable the Add Sector button:

  3. Click the Add Sector button to add a blank sector to the screen:

  4. You can adjust the placement of the sector by clicking on it (which outlines the selected sector in blue) and using your mouse-wheel. Scrolling up moves it clockwise, and scrolling down moves it anticlockwise:

  5. Once it is in the desired spot, you can also change the size of the sector by holding down Alt and using your mouse-wheel to increase or decrease the size of the sector:
