Its good to hear that it helped you

A tilt of -15.0 on the ground seems really erroneous... does anyone have the TILT we should generally use in our flights or in RL they tend to use AUTO? (in normal conditions)

Simply use Auto, that's sufficient for most cases.

Otherwise simply set the angle you want to scan.

And always a good read about this topic is also:

Thanks Cedarjet...your video has answer my questions :-)

Your more than welcome sir and im glad this has helped allot of people ,

now you can sit back and enjoy flying this amazing aircraft!

Well, I totally understand the tutorial and everything is OK, if only I set as this video shows.

My question is why weather disappears (nothing on ND) when I set MULTISCAN AUTO & GCS AUTO and TILT 0° and GAIN CAL?

Is it beacuse weather is fine and clear? Or I am doing something wrong again?

I am confused.

Anyway thank youy very much for your video.

If you set multiscan and GCS on auto it doesn't matter what else you have configured. That's what auto means. The WXR will do everything do get an as good as possible idea of the weather ahead of you.

If you don't see any weather on your ND then there simply are no clouds with precipitation in you radar's reach and the selected ND range.

A little bit above I have linked a PDF. It gives you a good idea of how the WXR works, manually and automatically.

HI,

why you guys haven't had a look into the Vol6 StepbyStep Guide Chapter 2.1.3 where you find all the information you need to know about this feature?

Personally speaking, that's exactly what I did do. Unfortunately, as comprehensive as Vol6 is, imho, it just didn't explain the functionality well enough.

Well it is hard to put everything into a manual, as understanding the whole story around WXR isn't that easy. Here are 2 sources that might be helpfull:

Do not hijack others post. And use the search function before opening another topic.

Why is the weather radar does not show clouds?

A WXR doesn't show clouds.

very interesting to watch the full green display

I recommend you read the Collins manual for the WXR which is already linked twice in this thread. It explains in detail what the WXR displays, and what not.

I would prefer not to use it blocking my view to the ND..this my opinion only..

So make it less opaque!

I see how to adjust that Mathjis? reduce the gain? or the angle?

No, the brightness...
