Field Summary

Fields

Modifier and Type	Field and Description
static ScanMode	MODE_air air: air (aircraft?) scanning
static ScanMode	MODE_calibration calibration: a calibration is being performed
static ScanMode	MODE_coplane coplane: the radar is scanned in a single plane, so both azimuth and elevation can vary
static ScanMode	MODE_horizontal horizontal: not scanning, horizontally pointing
static ScanMode	MODE_idle idle: antenna position and scanning are undefined
static ScanMode	MODE_manual manual: antenna position is being manually controlled
static ScanMode	MODE_PPI PPI (Plan Position Indicator): fixed elevation and varying azimuth
static ScanMode	MODE_RHI RHI (Range-Height Indicator): fixed azimuth and varying elevation
static ScanMode	MODE_SUR SUR (surveillance)
static ScanMode	MODE_target target: the antenna is pointed at a fixed location
static ScanMode	MODE_vertical vertical: the antenna is pointing vertically
