Fine Tuning Detection Areas
...
Within the Configuration Tree, select the desired Radar. You can do this by selecting the 'locate' button.
Within the Selected Entity Info Panel, select Radar Data, to overlay the live radar signal within the site map. It is possible to simultaneously overlay the output from two or more radar sensors. However, this uses a sizable amount of processing power so it is advisable to show no more than two or three sensor outputs at a time.
Select Raw.
Adjust the view within the site map until you can see the detection area boundary you wish to edit.
Click on the Detection Area to select it, then configure it using Standard Creating and Editing; https://navtechradar.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/TUN/pages/206602339/Creating+and+Editing+Entities#Standard-Area-and-Shape-Manipulation, using the Raw Data to shape the Detection Area around visible objects and boundaries. For parts of the area that are further from the radar sensor, any given object will produce a wider trace due to the beamwidth of the sensor. Therefore, it may be necessary to widen the area as it stretches away further from the sensor.
When the area has been fine tuned, select Save to store the new area shape.
