11.2 Stormscope
11.2.1 Stormscope (Optional)
NOTE: Refer to the WX-500 Pilot's Guide for a detailed description of the
WX-500 Stormscope.
The Stormscope WX-500 Weather Mapping Sensor is a passive weather
avoidance system that detects electrical discharges associated with thunderstorms
within a 200 NM radius of the aircraft. The Stormscope measures relative
bearing and distance of thunderstorm-related electrical activity and reports
the information to the display. Interfaces are currently only available for the
WX-500 Stormscope System.
For lightning display interpretation, study the examples located in the
WX-500 Stormscope Pilot's Guide that are designed to help you relate the cell or
strike patterns shown on the display to the size and location of thunderstorms
that may be near your aircraft.
