Nav mode radar sweep
-
When in Nav Mode my radar will not sweep and I get a “No Rad” message at the top of my HUD. When I go to AA Mode, radar sweep works fine, but stops again when I go back to Nav Mode. I am new to BMS and cannot find the answer in the manuals. Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong.

No Rad means the radar is quiet/snoozed, so the no sweep makes sense. Unsnooze it. Or is that ‘desnooze’?
What I’m not sure about is why you’re getting a snoozed radar in NAV mode in the first place. That’s a default in SRM Override (dogfight mode), but not Nav Mode, afaik.

Have a look under the first button ( (OSB 1)on you radar MFD. Does it read ACM or CRM ?
If it reads ACM press that OSB and it will bring up a page with FCR modes. Find the one that reads CRM and press it.
ACM mode defaults in NO RAD. You can use TMS up to allow it to radiate. -
Also check if under OSB1 it reads STBY. (Follow the same procedure)
Could be related to the FCR BIT -
