EXAMPLE-

5. Radar limit line for control

25. "Low ALT" flashes to indicate when an aircraft"s
predicted descent places the aircraft in an unsafe
proximity to terrain.
(Note: this feature does not function if the aircraft is not
squawking Mode C. When a helicopter or aircraft is
known to be operating below the lower safe limit, the
"low ALT" can be changed to "inhibit" and flashing
ceases.)

6. Obstruction (video map)

26. NAVAIDs

7. Primary radar returns of obstacles or terrain (can be
removed by MTI)

27. Airways

1. Areas of precipitation (can be reduced by CP)
2. Arrival/departure tabular list
3. Trackball (control) position symbol (A)
4. Airway (lines are sometimes deleted in part)

8. Satellite airports
9. Runway centerlines (marks and spaces indicate
miles)
10. Primary airport with parallel runways
11. Approach gates
12. Tracked target (primary and beacon target)
13. Control position symbol
14. Untracked target select code (monitored) with
Mode C readout of 5,000"

28. Primary target only
29. Nonmonitored. No Mode C (an asterisk would
indicate nonmonitored with Mode C)
30. Beacon target only (secondary radar based on
aircraft transponder)
31. Tracked target (primary and beacon target) control
position A
32. Aircraft is squawking emergency Code 7700 and is
nonmonitored, untracked, Mode C

15. Untracked target without Mode C

33. Controller assigned runway 36 right alternates with
Mode C readout
(Note: a three letter identifier could also indicate the
arrival is at specific airport)

16. Primary target

34. Ident flashes

17. Beacon target only (secondary radar) (transponder)

35. Identing target blossoms

18. Primary and beacon target

36. Untracked target identing on a selected code

19. Leader line

37. Range marks (10 and 15 miles) (can be
changed/offset)

20. Altitude Mode C readout is 6,000"
(Note: readouts may not be displayed because of
nonreceipt of beacon information, garbled beacon
signals, and flight plan data which is displayed
alternately with the altitude readout)
21. Ground speed readout is 240 knots
(Note: readouts may not be displayed because of a loss
of beacon signal, a controller alert that a pilot was
squawking emergency, radio failure, etc.)
22. Aircraft ID
23. Asterisk indicates a controller entry in Mode C
block. In this case 5,000" is entered and "05" would
alternate with Mode C readout.
24. Indicates heavy

38. Aircraft controlled by center
39. Targets in suspend status
40. Coast/suspend list (aircraft holding, temporary loss
of beacon/target, etc.)
41. Radio failure (emergency information)
42. Select beacon codes (being monitored)
43. General information (ATIS, runway, approach in
use)
44. Altimeter setting
45. Time
46. System datrea
