FAR3000SSD_kisyou_No_36_P0N+Q0N_PPI_yyyymmdd.conf
(yyyymmdd means Year/Month/Date).
8) Click [TRX] from [Radar operation] to confirm that an indication would shift an echo when a
scanning line rotates in every round.
9) Click [STBY] from [Radar operation] to stop TRX.
10) To select the best file at last by the local situation. Or to change the necessary setting like as
elevation to finish it.
Notice: To keep the setting according to the local situation at last. Make sure to turn ON/OFF the
power of radome and /or PC, and TRX/STBY the radar operation.
