Radar Service Tool
The radar system can be managed through the Radar Service Tool (RST), which
is a software application used for controlling the radar system, such as parameters
and BITE information, and for monitoring radar video, plots and tracks.
The RST runs on a laptop or on a PC connected to the radar LAN.
The RST provides the user with a consistent look and feel across the various fea-
tures implemented. It supports different perspectives, where each perspective cor-
responds to a particular arrangement and subset of RST windows (views). The
user may define, store and recall individual perspectives.
For detailed descriptions of the Radar Service Tool functions, see doc. no. 357641-
HO: “SCANTER Radar Service Tool - Operator’s Manual”.
