Description of marks and data on the normal display
Shows own ship's present position and points in bow direction.
When a heading sensor is connected, the north mark is displayed and
points to north. If no heading sensor is connected, the north mark
points to 0° on the sonar display.
The heading mark is a dashed line extending from the screen center
to the edge of the outermost range ring and it points in the direction of
ship's heading.
With connection of a heading sensor, heading is shown 32 compass
points (N, N/NE, etc.). The heading may also be displayed in true
bearing in which case the indication is 360°.
The own ship position mark is entered at own ship's position, with
the EVENT key. 10 marks may be entered.

equal when target lock is on. In automatic tilt, the upper indication
shows the tilt angle set by the TILT lever and the lower indication the
instantaneous tilt angle at which the sonar actually works.
The gain chosen with the GAIN control appears on the top right
corner of the sonar display.
