Mode C and ground traffic

I've been using C-mode correlation for a while now, needless to say I'm enjoying it. But is there a way to show ground targets? I checked "Show AC on STBY" from the display options, but no avail. I still can't see them... a secondary window is not an option since I'm using an HP Mini for my controlling..

 

Thanks!

Use one of the ground modes from the Display Setting dialog, for the ASR you are using for ground operation.

I'm sorry but can you elaborate this further Todor? I don't quite get it...

I believe he is saying, open a different ASR for ground movements, and set that ASR's simulation mode (in the display settings dialogue) as one of the ground options. This doesn't require a new window, and you can switch between the 2 ASRs easily by using F7.

Yep, exactly =>

# Simulation mode - Here you can specify the used radar mode for the current ASR.

   * Easy EuroScope mode - The standard radar mode known from earlier versions.
   * Professional Radar mode - For details on Professional mode, refer to the Professional Radar Simulation page. It can not be used if the correlation mode in the General Settings dialog is set to Easy EuroScope mode.
   * Professional ground with S-mode radar - Ground mode with S-mode surface radar coverage.
   * Professional ground without radar - Ground mode without radar identification of the aircraft.

We're using HCF01.asr - and it automatically loads itself everytime I load the profile. So how exactly do I "open a new ASR" and toggle between the 2?

 

I'd appreciate a step by step guide... [Mod - Happy Thoughts]uming we're already looking at the screen with the current ASR that I'm using for CTR

Disregard, I figured it out. If only there's a way to save both ASR without having to setup my the 2nd ASR for my 2 ground everytime I start ES.

Of course you can save your ASR, just hit "Save/Save As" in the Open SCT menu. You can also fast load your last 8 used ASR from that menu also.

Welcome to a new world of ES

 

I myself have 9 asrs hotkeyed and switch between them constantly. So when I control sweden I can with the click of a button jump between looking at all of sweden, to a TMA view, to ground, back to all of sweden again. Really nice and quite efficent on my laptop aswell

Sure it is! I did not know about this feature until today. So I pretty much saved different 5 ASR for all our airfields. So in case someone calls again from one of those airfields, I will not have to ask again.. "What taxiway are you coming out from?"
