PPI

The PPI on the Configuration Application Dashboard is a live two-dimensional view of the radar display based around a geographical interface. The radar data is displayed in green with Nav Points (any peaks above threshold values) shown as red dots, along with the current alarm status. It is updated once a second.

There are 2 modes of operation - Global and Alarm. If an indicator turns from green (OK) to red (not OK) then an alarm has been given:

Radar Info Panel

There is a radar information panel on the PPI with the following fields:

Serial Number: The serial number of the radar.

Number of Azimuths per Rotation: This is the total number of azimuth samples taken by the radar in a single rotation.

Range in Bins: The total number of measurements taken for each azimuth sample. The calculated range of radar is Range Resolution x Range in Bins. Bins are individual cells measured by radars and the bin size must be rounded to the nearest 8 bins.

Rotation Speed: This is configured rotation speed of the radar, displayed in milli-Hertz. (Hz x 1000).

Resolution: The resolution is our sampling distance (for example, every 15cm) and is used for range and azimuth (also known as angular).

Range: This is the area of radar coverage.
