| 24 | To address the incompatibilities between short-range radar and enroute surveillance data processing, and |
| 25 | to address usability of CV4400 format converter output data with DARC, the conversion function formally |
| 26 | done by CV4400 hardware is now a software function within ECG. |

| 32 | 1. If a site utilizes a CV4400 converter, that converter is reprogrammed to provide CD2 full-scan data to ECG. The PIP then converts that data to CD2 skip-scan data for use by HCS. The BIP, however, |
| 33 | does not need to do any conversion since DARC can utilize CD2 full-scan data. Refer to Figure 3–302, CV4400 Conversion Enabled in PIP and Disabled in BIP (with CV4400 Hardware). |

| 70 | This is selected when the incoming data is from an ASR–9 short range radar that is delivering |
| 71 | CD–ASR format data to ECG. This protocol would typically only be selected when the ASR–9 radar |
| 72 | does not have CV4400 hardware filtering/formatting equipment (as with new ASR–9 radars). |

| 77 | ''' MULTICAST="DISABLED"''' |
| 78 | {{{ |
| 79 | With ECG/DARC, this parameter is used to enable or disable the multicasting of radar data before the |
| 80 | data is processed by the CV4400 filtering/formatting function in ECG (RAPPI and DARC are multicast |
| 81 | users). If it is desired to multicast radar data to RAPPI and DARC prior to it being processed by the ECG |
| 82 | CV4400 filter, then the multicast parameter should be set to ENABLED for each radar device for which |
| 83 | multicast is desired. The default for multicast for the radar device is DISABLED. |

| 86 | |
| 87 | '''INVERT="NORMAL"''' |
| 88 | {{{ |
| 89 | This parameter is set according to the compatibility of the incoming data signal relative to MIL-STD-188. |
| 90 | If invert is set to INVERTED, then ECG software inverts the polarity, treating an incoming 0 (zero) as |
| 91 | a logical 1 (one) and a 1 (one) as a logical 0 (zero). If INVERT is set to NORMAL, then no inversion |
| 92 | is performed. The default ECG SCT setting is INVERTED. This parameter is set in the device details |
| 93 | window of the SCT. |
| 94 | Note: |
| 95 | This parameter may not need to be set to NORMAL for short range (ASR) radars that do not |
| 96 | send data in conformance with MIL-STD-188. |
