The Radar Navigation Utilities tool is a stand alone program, which will allow an engineer to access accelerometer, navigation and settings data from a radar and to upload and download navigation configuration. The tool can also be used to change radar range, gain, offset, threshold, bins, min bins, max peak and buffer mode settings.

Note

Note - Care should be taken when using this tool to adjust the settings on a radar that is being used with the built-in SafeGuard anticollision functions, as the settings applied with this tool will overwrite the equivalent settings used within the SafeGuard system.

The CLI command line options are structured around verbs as an example:The first verb is a choice of tracker or radar, this governs if the radar or the onboard tracker are to receive the command.

This first verb has several options:

Info

Use flag -i or --ipaddress to specify the Radar IP Address; the default is “192.168.0.1”.

Use flag -p or --port to select the Radar Port; the default is “6317”.

Use flag --version to show the version information.

Use flag -? or -h or --help to show help and usage information.

The second verb here is one of the commands listed below, in this case to set the Gain to 1 and the Offset to -0.345,
