OPERATION
NOTE: The KTA 870 automatically transitions from STANDBY to OPERATE mode upon takeoff.
The unit must be in operating mode for traffic to be displayed. The ability to switch from standby to operating
mode on the ground is especially useful for scanning the airspace around the airport before takeoff.

the KTA 870 to switch from Standby Mode to Operating Mode as necessary.
