the range, bearing, speed, GPS heading, nearest approach, and time

Target has been acquired. A solid green ring indicates the location of
a target that the radar has locked onto. A dashed green line attached
to the circle indicates the projected course over ground or the GPS
heading of the target.

an alarm sounds and a message banner appears. After the alarm has
been acknowledged, a solid red dot with a dashed red line attached to it
indicates the location and the projected course over ground or the GPS
heading of the target. If the safe- zone collision alarm has been set to

alarm banner does not appear.

that the radar could not lock onto the target.
