Launching Real Time Display

  1. Do one of the following:

    • Choose Menus > Real Time Display from the IRIS menu bar.

      You do not need to be connected to an IRIS server to start the display.

      The real time display appears in the DEFAULT configuration with a blank (black) background. If data currently are being sent by the radar workstation, then within 2 seconds, the display starts to paint and the green LED in the upper corner of the display flashes.

    • In the IRISNet, select your site (where you are sitting) and then the real time display icon.

    • In a terminal window, type the following:

      $ rtdisp&
  2. To view multiple displays simultaneously:
    1. Create multiple saved configurations with each using a different port number.
    2. Use the command line option to specify which file to use. For example: 
      $ rtdisp -file port30726&

$ rtdisp -file port30727&
