Wind
Display
-
The wind format is displayed
in white
in either
a vector (Figure 212) or X-Y (Figure 213) component format as
selected through the display controller. The wind display
abeams the aircraft symbol to the left, above the heading
select digital readout. This data is displayed from the
selected ND FMS source.
(i) Range Rings - Range rings are displayed to aid in determining
the position of radar returns and active flight plan
parameters. The range ring boundary is the compass card arc
and represents the select range on the weather radar
controller. A half-range ring (arc) is provided and
labeled with the half-range distance at each end of the arc
(Figure 212).
(j) Weather - Weather information from the radar is displayed on
the map format, within the WX boundary (Figure 213.1), whenever
at least one weather radar (side independent) controller has
been turned on.
With both WX controllers ON (STBY, TEST, WX, or GMAP modes
selected), each pilot has independent control over alternate
sweeps of the radar yielding independent weather display
capability relative to range, tilt, and WX mode.
With one WX
controller ON and the other in the OFF position, the active
controller selects weather radar modes and range data on both
side
map
displays
(slave-mode).
Activation of the TEST, WX, or GMAP modes, with the aircraft on
the ground, and the COMP or PLAN mode displayed on the ND,
causes the mode annunciation to turn amber and flash.
With the MAP mode display on the ND and the TEST, WX, orGMAP
mode active, selecting the FPLN range on the WX controller
removes the displayed radar returns and flashes the active
radar mode annunciation in amber.
