as "Slave", the desired value can be set for these functions. For SSD-types, this func-
tion cannot be controlled.

Operating considerations for the dual radar display

You can toggle each radar between standby and TX in the dual radar display. When
switching to standby on either radar, the Alert "EXT RADAR STBY" appears and the
radar echoes from the radar in standby are not displayed. Further, when switching to
standby, all TT targets are removed and tracking stops on the radar which is in stand-
by. However if a TT target is acquired on the radar which is not in standby, the TT in-
formation is passed to the radar which is in standby.
Changes made to the following functions are applied to both the own radar echoes
and the external echoes, on the display of the radar which made the changes. These
settings are not applied to the display of the external radar.

• CU/TM reset
• Presentation mode
