Beam Mode: Beam Direction Plot Page
The Beam Directions Plot page presents the theoretical opening angle and steering for all the beams in the currently selected beam mode.

Description
Use this plot to verify that the opening angle and steering are as expected, based on the beam spacing mode you have selected. Due to the use of the same array weighting for all beams in the fan, the difference in allocated frequency and steering create different theoretical opening angles. The colour coding of the beams can be used to verify that the location of the split beams in the fan are located as expected.
The colour codes are:
•  Blue: Normal beams
•  Black: Split beams
•  Red: Reference beams
