Allows user to close widget without accepting any changes made while it was open.
Frames are numbered with the top left being 1,top right 2, bottom left 3 and bottom right frame 4. This number shows the frame in which the widget was brought opened from.
Closes the widget accepting the changes made while it was open. Any changes made in a widget will not show up in the frame(s) until they are re-displayed. To do this click on the = sign in the control bar for each window you made changes in. Also clicking on the colored box at the bottom of the control bar will cause all windows with the same colored box to update. The color of the box is a code to show which frames are locked together. See Arrow Buttons for more details on the displaying tools.
The number buttons on the right side of the widget refer to the display frames. The numbers which are highlighted in pink are the frames that will receive the changes made from this widget when closing with the accept button. You can use the mouse to click on and off each number except the frame in which the widget was brought up from.
Click on one of the window frame in the location where you want to center the frame. By clicking on this button the frames highlighted will be centered on this location after accepting the changes and re-displaying the frame(s).
Defined as the number of pixels per 300 meters of range. Changing this value will zoom or unzoom on the data. The current center will be the focal point of the zoom.
The increment(km) in which range rings are plotted. Set to 0.0 or -1 in order to get rid of the range rings.
The increment(degrees) in which azimuth spokes are placed on the plot. Set to 0.0 or -1 to get rid of spokes.
Specifies the horizontal tic mark spacing in km. A zero value in both horizontal and vertical tic marks suppresses tic mark annotation. The size of the horizontal part of the tic mark can be changed by typing the commandset-x-tic-mag 3.0
in the window from which you invoked solo. The number specifies the magnification of the default tic size.
Specifies the vertical tic mark spacing in km. If this value is zero, it defaults to the horizontal spacing. The command set-y-tic-mag is also supported.
Gives you the option to choose what angle you want the labels for the range rings to be displayed at. Use -1 to hide the range ring annotation.
Allows you to move the angle labels to any range from the center of the radar. Use -1 to hide the azimuth spoke annotation.
This menu gives several options that can be used to change the center of the display frames.
Closes the menu. The changes made will be accepted only if the view widget is closed with the accept button.
Frame used when the "Link the center in the frames clicked to the center of the reference frame" is selected.
In this case the center of the frame is defined by the contents of FRAME CTR. ANGLE and FRAME CTR. RANGE and these values specify the center of the frame relative to the radar being plotted in the frame. The first time you run Solo these values will be zero. Other centering options will change these values.
The values for lat, long and alt at the bottom of the menu can be changed and selecting this option will cause these new values to become the center of the frames highlighted in this menu.
All the frames highlighted will be centered at the same point as the referenced frame listed at the top right of the menu. The number can be changed by the user. This is useful if you have two or more radars which are close to each other and you want to do a comparison.
Another way to center the window frame in a specified location, this time using azimuth and range as the variables.Again the changes will only effect the frames selected.
Allows user to input a latitude to center display on. Both LAT and LONG must be something other than 0.0 for this to work.
Allows user to input a longitude to center display on. Both LAT and LONG must be something other than 0.0 for this to work.
Allows the user to enter an altitude for the center of the frame.
The options in this menu are similar to those in the CENTER OF FRAME menu except they control a landmark or origin for the range-azimuth grid. With the exception of setting the landmark, the grids are drawn relative to either the radar being plotted in the frame or the reference radar if you have selected the reference frame option.
With Solo you can control the shape, size and number of frames in your configuration. Anywhere from 1-6 frames are possible. The current configuration is highlighted. To change the configuration click on the desired frames or select one of the one window configs from the menu at the bottom of the widget. Use the Dismiss option to close the widget without making any changes to the configuration or hit the accept at the top of the menu to bring up the new layout.
This widget is used to control viewing aspects of a time series display. Choosing what data and what time interval to plot is controlled by the sweep widgets. See Time Series Sweep Controls. Other control widgets will not have supplemental time series widgets.This is a true time series plot in that each pixel in the horizontal is assigned a time and if there is data to fill it, it will be filled and if not it will be left blank. Likewise when the data density and the time interval are such that not all individual rays can be plotted, the ray closest to the pixel's assigned time will be plotted and all others ignored. No averaging is done when decimating the data.
The default magnification is 1.0 which implies 300 m. per pixel.
The default is to plot up relative to the radar and the center of the
screen is at 0 km.
