  5. Unit:

    • Specifies the unit of measurement used by the radar product for both legends and product type.

  6. Step Value:

    • The step values are used as a counter within the SCAMIN Value table to determine how many scale values smaller than that particular object should be displayed.

  7. Max Color:

    • The color used to represent the maximum value in the legend.

  8. Below Threshold Color:

    • Color assigned to values below the specified radar threshold.

  9. Out of Range Color:

  10. Range Folded Color:

    • Color assigned to values affected by range folding.

  11. Legend:
