STK Radar

There are a number of commands for Radar that can be executed through Connect. These commands allow you to control the definition and graphical display of radar objects. For most commands associated with Radar, the actual command name is Radar. The generic structure of most Radar commands is:

Radar <ObjectPath> {RadarOption} <Parameters>

The {RadarOption} indicates the action being executed by the command, and will change depending on the action you wish to take. Additional <Parameters> may be required depending on the {RadarOption} specified.
