That's what Hpasp said, but I am not sure about that....

Here comprasion between modes in SA-2F and SA-2E:
Quote:
At the Volhov, you have these methods...
ZEMLJA - ground - detonate missile by command
STAN - arm the fuse 300m before the range boresight - detonate by radio proxy fuse
RAB PO ADA - against spy balloons - detonate missile by command, well before the target
ZAGRUB RV - reduce fuse sensitivity to avoid detonation by chaff
ZAGRUB RV USU - reduce fuse sensitivity to avoid detonation by chaff with USU missiles
NLC USU - gate fuse sensitivity to 100m against low flying targets
NC USU - used with nuclear missiles
RAB OT VM - arm the fuse 11sec after launch - detonate by radio proxy fuse
RAB PO K3 - detonate missile by K3 command

At the Dvina, you have these methods...
ZEMLJA - ground - detonate missile by command
RAB PO ADA - against spy balloons - detonate missile by command, well before the target
11 SEC - arm the fuse 11sec after launch - detonate by radio proxy fuse
RAB OT RV - arm the fuse 300m before the range boresight - detonate by radio proxy fuse
RAB PO K3 - detonate missile by K3 command for incoming targets - used against low flying targets
DOGON - detonate missile by K3 command for receding targets (Dvina has no K4 command to transmit the missile/target closure speed)

And here - TOTALY DIFFERENT explanation about "Dogon" an "Rabota on K3" for SA-2F:
