Section 2 L-3 Stormscope Interface SECTION 2: L-3 STORMSCOPE INTERFACE L-3 STORMSCOPE Description NOTE: Refer to the WX-500 Pilot’s Guide for a detailed description of the WX-500 STORMSCOPE. The L-3 STORMSCOPE WX-500 Weather Map- ping 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 STORM- SCOPE System. -
Page 7: Displaying Storm Data On The Map Page
Displaying Storm Data on the Map Page The Map Page displays cell or strike information using yellow lightning strike symbology overlaid on a moving map. This added capability improves situational awareness, which in turn makes it much easier for the pilot to relate storm activity to airports, NAVAIDs, obstacles and other ground references. NOTE: Storm data is displayed on the Map Page only if aircraft heading is available. In normal operation, the current mode and rate are displayed in the top right corner of the Map Page and the bottom right corner of the Lightning Page. The mode is described by the word “STRIKE” when in strike mode, or “CELL” when in cell mode. NOTE: Cell mode uses a clustering program to iden- tify clusters of electrical activity that indicate cells. - Page 8 Section 2 L-3 Stormscope Interface The strike data display phases are: Lightning Symbol (latest strikes; less than one minute; a black guard band is placed around the strike symbol during the first six seconds of display). Large Plus “+” sign (more than one minute old).

Page 9: Clearing The Map Page
Clearing the Map Page Routinely clearing the Map Page of all discharge points is a good way to determine if a storm is build- ing or dissipating. In a building storm discharge points reappear faster and in larger numbers. In a dissipating storm discharge points appear slower and in smaller numbers. Clearing discharge points from the Map Page. To clear the Map Page of all discharge points: From the default Nav Page, turn the small right knob to select the Map Page. Press MENU to display the Page Menu. -
