21.1 Radar app overview
The Radar app displays a visualization of the echoes received from a
connected Radar scanner. The Radar app is a navigation aid used to help
enhance collision and situational awareness by enabling target's distance
and speed to be tracked in relation to your vessel.
Up to 2 Radar scanners can be connected at the same time. However, only 1
Radar in a system can be a Quantum™ Radar.
For each instance of the Radar app you can select which Radar scanner you
want to use, the Radar scanner selection will persist over a power cycle.
The Radar app can be displayed in both Fullscreen and splitscreen app
pages. App pages may consist of up to 2 instances of the Radar app.
1.
Azimuth ring — used to provide indication of bearing.
2. Waypoint symbols — waypoint symbols can be displayed in the Radar
app.
3. Range rings — evenly spaced concentric circles help determine
distances in the Radar app.
4. Tracked radar target — symbols with vector lines are used to represent
tracked radar targets.

6. SHM (Ship heading marker) — points in the direction of travel on the
azimuth ring.
7.
Own vessel position — indicates own vessel position in relation to the
radar returns.
8. AIS target — symbols with vector lines are used to represent AIS targets.
9. Radar return — land mass.
10. Data overlay — by default depth is displayed.
11. Sensitivity controls — access the Radar app's sensitivity controls.
12. Radar mode and status — identifies the Radar mode, orientation and
motion mode.
13. Range and rings — shows the current Radar app range and spacing
between range rings.
The Radar app allows you to configure alarms which are triggered when a
target or object conflicts with the [Dangerous targets] or [Guard Zone] alarm
settings.
The Range rings, azimuth ring and VRM/EBLs can be used to identify a
targets distance and heading in relation to your vessel.
