Selecting Transmit Mode in a Client Server Radar System

In a Client/Server Radar (CSR) system switching to transmit is only
possible if that Client is selected as a Master, or if the Client is a Slave and
the Master Client connected to the same Transceiver/Server (TRServer) is
in transmit. If the Master Client is in Standby the Slave Client cannot switch
to transmit.
A Client that is currently a Slave display can switch to being the Master
display of a TRServer from the Interswitch menu, see `Interswitch on a
Client/Server Radar' in the Radar chapter.
If a Client has no connection to a transceiver via a Server the message
TCVR Disconnected appears on the chart display and the
Standby/Transmit button on the upper toolbar displays a red X to indicate
that the node is disconnected. The node can be reconnected from the
Interswitch menu.
Dual Radar – Transmit Selection
In Dual Radar each channel may be independently selected for Standby or
Transmit.
1. To select transmit for channel 1 or channel 2
left click on the Standby/Transmit button.
The Transceiver window opens directly
below the upper toolbar.
2. Select which channel you require to be
transmitting by clicking on the Channel 1 or
Channel 2 tab buttons. From the operational
mode area of the window select Transmit.
When both channels are set to Transmit, the Transmit/Standby button is
displayed as for single radar. If one channel is set to Transmit and the other
channel is set to Standby the button displays the channel number that is
transmitting, i.e. if Channel 1 is set to Transmit and channel 2 set to
Standby then 1 will be shown on the icon.
