How to Measure the Range to a Target

You can measure the range to a target in three methods. You can use the fixed range
rings, the cursor (if set to measure range and bearing), and the VRM (Variable Range
Marker).
Use the fixed range rings to get a rough estimate of the range to a target. The fixed
range rings are the concentric solid circles about your ship. The number of rings
changes with the selected range scale. The interval of the range ring is displayed at
the upper-left corner of the screen. Count the number of rings between the center of
the display and the target. Check the range ring interval and measure the distance of
the echo from the nearest ring.
