%  Stormscope System 
% 
%  1. General 
%  This Section tells you about the Stormscope system that can be installed in the DA 40. Refer to the 
%  manufacturer′s manual for more data about the equipment. 
%  The Stormscope system consists of the following items: 
%  ) Stormscope processor. 
%  ) Stormscope antenna. 
%  2. Description and Operation 
%  The WX-500 is a passive sensor that listens for electromagnetic signals with a receiving antenna. The 
%  antenna detects intra-cloud, inter-cloud, or cloud-to-ground electrical discharges within a 200 nm 
%  radius of the airplane and sends the resulting 'discharge signals' to the processor. The processor 
%  digitizes, analyzes, and converts the discharge signals into range and bearing data. This information 
%  is stored in the storm buffer. 
%  A. Stormscope Processor 
%  The stormscope processor is tray mounted and is located under the passengers' seat. 
%  The avionics bus supplies power to the Stormscope system. The ALT/BAT switch and the AVIONIC 
%  MASTER switch must be set to ON to supply power through the 'WX-500'-circuit breaker to the 
%  Stormscope system. 
%  The processor houses the lightning data acquisition circuitry as well as the circuitry necessary to 
%  process heading information and communicate with the host MFD (Bendix/King KMD 150 or 
%  Garmin GNS 430/530, refer to Section 34-58). All WX-500 functions are controlled through the 
%  MFD. 
%  B. Stormscope Antenna 
%  The Goodrich NY-163 stormscope antenna is located behind the COM #2 antenna. The antenna 
%  is a combined cross-loop and sense antenna. The antenna is sealed against environmental 
%  extremes. You cannot repair the antenna.
