Subsystem Status

The Radar Status > Subsystem Status pane displays the status of the subsystem devices connected to IRIS. The contents vary depending upon the system set-up.

Figure 1. Radar Status Menu Subsystem Status Section

Use the setup utility to configure the devices listed under Subsystem Status.

Depending on the device, the status is obtained from self-tests invoked when the radar process starts and from watchdog process that monitor the device during normal operations.

Status information displayed with the status message NA (not available) indicate that a device has not been installed.
