Introduction

The Radar Navigation Utilities tool is a stand alone program, which will allow an engineer to access accelerator, navigation and settings data from a radar or tracker 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.
