INTRODUCTION
The Weather Radar Function of the Bendix/King KMD 850 Multi
Function Display allows for the display and control of several Honeywell
weather radar systems. Weather Radar indicates the presence and
strength of precipitation and is intended to allow the operator to avoid
thunderstorms and associated turbulence.
This Pilot’s Guide Addendum describes the operation of the KMD 850
display for controlling the weather radar sensor. The general operation of
the KMD 850 is described in the other sections of the KMD 550/850
Pilot’s Guide. For detailed information on the proper use and interpreta-
tion of the weather radar data please reference the pilot’s guide that was
provided with the weather radar sensor.
Note: The KMD 850 can interface with many different types of radar
and the screen displays may vary compared to the examples
shown in this manual.
The Bendix/King KMD 850 is shown below with the Weather Radar
Page selected.
