Default Question re: UA flight 497

In the audio, you hear the pilot or copilot:

"We've lost all our instruments right now, and we're going to need just a PAR"

I only know PAR as precision approach radar, but this wouldn't this require functioning instrumentation on the A320, or are they referring to guidance from ATC? Or is PAR something else? Something something runway?

Thanks -
