Radar View Options - Lowrance HDS Live Operator's Manual

Fast scan
(Broadband and Halo radar only).
Sets the speed of the radar antenna rotation. This option gives faster
target updates.
Ú Note:
Maximum speed may not be achieved depending on the
radar Settings, Mode, and Range selected. The radar will only
rotate as fast as the current control settings allow.
Target boost
(3G and 4G Broadband, and Pulse Radar only)
The target boost control increases pulse length or reduces radar
bandwidth to make targets appear larger in range and increase
radar sensitivity.

Radar view options

View menu options vary depending on your radar antenna.
VelocityTrack
This option is available for radar antennas that have Doppler
coloring functionality.
Ú Note:
When VelocityTrack is enabled antenna rotation speed
may be reduced.
Ú Note:
When operating the radar in Dual range mode with one
of the ranges set to 36 nm or more, increased VelocityTrack
coloring noise over land areas may be seen.
Doppler coloring is a navigation aid to distinguish moving targets
approaching or diverging from your vessel. The radar indicates if a
target is approaching or diverging from your vessel when both
these conditions are true:
• The target's relative speed is greater than the VelocityTrack speed
threshold.
• The target is not geo-stationary (e.g. land or a marker buoy).
The following options are available:
• Off - turns off Doppler coloring
• Normal - approaching targets and diverging targets are colored.
