mode.
Younormallyoperateyour radar intransmitmode,but youcanuse the display
unit without the scanner operating as follows:
Standby mode: You should use this mode when you are not operating the
radar for short time periods. The scanner does not transmit and the antenna
does not rotate, so the radar uses less power. However, the scanner remains
poweredso when youreturntotransmitmode,the magnetrondoes notneed to

radar,but you are using thedisplay unit say, forchart data or to view data from
