Default If you want to check...

...when you're on the bridge, look up at your radar antenna, it'll be rotating if it's in sweep mode.
I do this when surfacing and I go to the bridge. I don't feel like going to the radar station to "switch on" so I'll just look up and press 'R' key and watch the antenna kick into life. I see that and I know the radar is on and sweeping.
I believe the only time it goes into 'focus' mode is when you actually go to the radar screen itself. Personally I find that very irritating and would prefer it remain sweeping instead of waiting for me to restart it. I have no idea of the dev logic behind making it stop just because I show up at the radar screen.

Having said that, I don't suppose there's a mod/config setting that "forces" it to continue sweeping despite my showing up at the radar screen????:hmm:
