5.3.15 STORMSCOPE CONFIG Page
The Stormscope pages are only available if one of the RS-232 inputs is configured for
the WX-500.
Select the STORMSCOPE CONFIG page (see Figure
5-19). This page shows the L3 Communications WX-500
Stormscope configuration as reported by the WX-500
through RS-232 data.
Verify that the STATUS field indicates "Ok", and that
the other displayed parameters are correct. Verify that all
the boxes in the lower portion of the page are green.
When a 500W Series unit is used with a WX-500
Stormscope, the "Synchro" or "Serial" heading formats
may be used. If another heading format is used, lightning
strike information is visible on the Weather Page, but not
the Map Page or Arc Page.
5.3.16 STORMSCOPE TEST Page
Select the STORMSCOPE TEST page (see Figure 5-20).
This page shows current strike activity, WX-500 status,
and the heading supplied by the WX-500. The WX-500
mode may be changed to 'Demo', 'Noise monitor', 'Self
test', 'Strike test', or 'Weather'.
Verify that the WX-500 mode can be changed. Refer to
the WX-500 manual for specific installation test
procedures for the WX-500, using this page to view strike
data, change the WX-500 mode, view WX-500 status,
trigger count, and heading.
5.3.17 STORMSCOPE DOWNLOAD DATA Page
Select the STORMSCOPE DOWNLOAD DATA page
(see Figure 5-21). This page shows raw data
downloadable from the WX-500. Optional sets of data
include WX-500 software version, environmental
conditions, configuration, and fault data.
Verify that the configuration data is correct as intended.
To request which packet of data to display, highlight the
data group title and use the small right knob to select the
desired group.
