Operator Manual
With this function, all targets located in the acquisition range are given an
artificial afterglow (see Figure: 2−31).
These afterglows indicate the route traveled
(length of artificial afterglow) in the set time.
Trails support situation assessment in the radar video.
Trails is an ARPA independent function that permits an assessment of the
current situation in the acquisition range.
Trails can be displayed as RELATIVE or TRUE.
