RADARCONFIG

Configure the Emulated Radar Output

Platform:

OEM719, OEM729, OEM7500, OEM7600, OEM7700, OEM7720, PwrPak7, CPT7, CPT7700, SMART7, SMART2

Use this command to configure the Emulated Radar (ER) output.

The ER signal is output on the VARF or EVENT_OUT1 pin of the receiver.

When RADARCONFIG is enabled, the BESTVELTYPE command mode is set to DOPPLER.

Response Modes

Mode

Description

1

Immediate. This results in the lowest latency at the cost of higher noise.

2

Automatically switch between 1000 and 500 depending on speed. When speed is below the Threshold parameter, use Response Mode 500. Otherwise, use Response Mode 1000.

500

Signal is minimally smoothed resulting in low latency but increased noise.

1000

Output signal is smoothed over a smaller window resulting in less latency than 2000 and less noise than 500.

2000

Output signal is smoothed to reduce noise at the cost of higher latency.
