Weather radar arcs ?

[MrBoXon 1]

Hi!

 

I've just tested the 777 on two short flights. The first time i loaded the 772 with SP1 the weather radar didn't work (i thought).
There was no "arcs" showing in the ND as it's supposed to when the WXR is active? So i reloaded the aircraft and it all worked, the arcs where there...

 

A few minutes ago i loaded the 773 and the same problem occurred, this time i didn't reload the aircraft as i where already in-flight.

With WXR mode active in the ND, no "arcs" showed up. However, it seemed to draw the weather correctly on the ND.

 

So, is the "missing arcs" a bug or am i missing something?

 

Here's a picture, see how the "white arcs" are missing?

Do you have the ND range rings display option enabled?

It's an airline config options. You can enable them in the FMC options.

Same problem... how to fix this in fmc?

You don't "fix" it.  You change the option to suit your taste.

 

This is discussed at length in the intro manual (and has been discussed at length in said manual since the NGX).
