Cursor Pre-Select Operation (ART2000/2100 only)

Cursor pre-select option can be used to pre-select a

bearing or tilt angle prior to switching the vertical or

horizontal scan mode of the display. The cursor is a cyan

line extending along the Radar’s projected path and can be

displayed in both the horizontal and vertical modes.

For example, if horizontal scanning is occurring, a cursor

line can be activated to pre-select a specific bearing to a

weather cell of interest. Once selected, changing the scan

mode to vertical will automatically set the bearing of the

vertical sweeps to the bearing previously indicated by the

cursor line.

Conversely, if vertical scanning is occurring, a cursor line

can be activated to pre-select a specific tilt to a weather cell

of interest. Once selected, changing the scan mode to

horizontal will automatically set the tilt angle of the

horizontal sweeps to the tilt angle previously indicated by

the cursor line.

The bearing cursor is activated any time the Tilt/Bearing

control is changed from its default position.
