For detection, as opposed to tracking, the system also included a helical scanning mode that allowed it to search for aircraft.

There are several different scanning modes in medical and obstetric ultrasound.

In such systems there are no events, but input and output actions are binary variables and operating system is working in the scanning mode.

The receivers were in a permanent scanning mode in order to detect and record all possible information emanating from Arkon.

Also new to the series will be the ability to enter a scanning mode known as Bio Vision.

The Leonora Cephei's radar was switched to long-range scanning mode, searching for any sign of another ship.

Standing over Shar, Prynn reset the tricorder to an interactive scanning mode.

She also set the tricorder back to an automated scanning mode to monitor his condition.

In this scanning mode a partial segment of the alignment - a window of user-determined fixed length - is scored.

"The X-ray telescope uses a lot of power, especially when it is in the scanning mode," he said.
