How to Select the TT mode

This radar can automatically acquire and track a maximum of 100 targets.
The number of automatically and manually acquired targets is determined by the set-
ting for [TT SELECT] in the [TT] menu.
A target just acquired automatically is marked with a dashed circle and a vector ap-
pears within one minute to indicate the target's motion trend. Within three minutes, the
initial tracking stage is finished and the target becomes ready for stable tracking. At
this time, the dashed circle changes to a solid circle.
