RADAR

This chapter provides the information necessary for radar operation, which requires a
radar sensor.
Radar-related settings can be accessed in the two ways shown below. In this manual,
this operation is written as "Open the [Radar] menu."
• From the Home screen, tap [Settings]→[Radar].
• From the [Layers] menu, tap [Radar Settings] .
Note: To change the radar source, go to the Home screen, tap [Settings] and [Radar],
select [Radar Source], then tap desired radar source.
6.1 How to Transmit, Set
the Radar in Stand-by
Tap the [TX] icon at the bottom right cor-
ner of the screen to put the radar in trans-
mit or stand-by state. The icon is filled in
white when the radar is in transmit state.
(Transmit, stand-by can also be controlled
from the pop-up menu with [TX/STBY].)
If you do not require the radar for some
time, set the radar in stand-by to save the
magnetron from unnecessary use.
TX channel selection (w/DRS-NXT series radar sensor)
In the default setting, the best TX channel is automatically selected at random among
three channels. However, if interference is received from the radar of a nearby ship,
open the [Radar] menu, then set [TX Channel] to [1], [2] or [3], the channel where the
interference is smallest.

Tuning

By design the radar receiver is tuned automatically after the radar is set to transmit. If
you require fine tuning, do the following to tune manually:
1. Open the Home screen, then tap
[Settings]→[Radar].
2. The default tuning method is auto-
matic. Turn off [Auto Tuning] to
enable manual tuning.
3. Drag the slider at [Manual Tuning]
to set the value.
4. Tap the close button on the title bar to finish.
