TURBULENCE DETECTION
Turbulence detection is an
automatic function of this weather
radar system.
For turbulence detection and
evaluation use the following
procedure:
1. Mode: WX ALL, WX PATH, or
WX MAN(optionally GMAP)
2. Turbulence: On (may be
included on HZD selection)
3. Range: As desired.
Turbulence information is limited to the first 40 or 60 nm (configured
at installation). Turbulence within this range and inside the flight
path weather envelopewill be displayed in magenta.
The turbulence data is represented in a blocky shape, helping to
visually differentiate it from reflectivity data.
The turbulence detection feature of the RDR-7000 is quite sensitive
as compared to previous radar functionality. The threshold for
displaying indications of turbulence is based on the potential aircraft
response to that turbulence. Therefore, magenta blocks may be
displayed on top of any color, including black.
