Note: • Some features of the Radar app require your display to have both a GNSS (GPS) position fix and compass heading data available, e.g.: to enable accurate display of AIS targets in relation to your vessel and to report geographical positions (Latitude and Longitude) of the cursor position. •...
• Pressing the Plus or Minus buttons will range in and range out respectively, centered around your vessel . Cursor mode In cursor mode the cursor can be used to select objects onscreen. Controls behavior: • Pressing the OK button opens the context menu for the area or object directly under the cursor’s position.
10.5 Automatic Identification System (AIS) support With compatible AIS hardware connected to your display, AIS targets can be tracked. AIS equipped vessels that are transmitting their position, and are within range of your vessel, can be represented in the Radar app using AIS target icons. Note: A maximum of 100 AIS targets can be tracked simultaneously.
AIS dangerous targets If AIS targets enter a dangerous target state they can trigger an alarm on your display. AIS targets are considered to be dangerous if they will pass within a specified safe distance from your vessel within a specified time interval. The dangerous target alarm can be enabled and disabled from the alarms menu: Homescreen >...
True vectors In true mode the vectors are shown ground referenced (i.e.: their actual path over ground). Relative vectors In relative mode the vectors are shown relative to your vessel’s position. AIS targets list Tracked AIS targets are listed in the AIS targets list. The AIS targets list can be accessed from the Radar app menu: Menu >...
Determines the predicted position of the target (and Vectors period: therefore the length of the vector). Note: The Vectors period settings also applies to your vessel’s COG vector. Reference mode: Determines whether vectors are shown in true or relative mode. AIS target symbols Different symbols are used to identify type of AIS target and their status.
SAR (Search and Virtual ATON Rescue) SART (Search and Rescue Transponder) AIS target symbol status Lost (No border, Uncertain (Dashed outline) crossed through) Dangerous and Uncertain (Dashed outline and Flashes Red) Dangerous (Flashes ATON off position (Red Red) border) 10.6 Range and bearing The Radar app helps you identify a target’s range (distance) and bearing from your vessel.
North indicator (Always points north). 2. SHM (Ships Heading Marker). 3. Bearing indicator ring (White). 4. Range rings with range indicator (Green). 5. Vessel position. 6. Current displayed bearing and range ring separation distance (Range: identifies the distance from your vessel to the bearing indicator ring. Rings: identifies the distance between each range ring). The displayed range can be adjusted at anytime using the Plus and Minus buttons.

Centered VRM/EBLBy default when the VRM/EBL is enabled it will be centered around your vessel. You can use the ‘centered’ VRM/EBL to determine the range and bearing of an object in relation to your vessel. 2. Floating VRM/EBLYou can adjust the VRM/EBL so that it is centered on another object, know as a ‘floating’...
1. Press a button on the Directional pad to enter cursor mode. 2. Press the OK button. The radar context menu is displayed. 3. Select Edit VRM/EBL. 4. Use the Directional pad to change the size of the VRM and location of the EBL. 5.
1. Select Adjust zone from the guard zone alarm menu. 2. Use the Directional pad to adjust the size and position of the outer perimeter to the desired location. 3. Press the OK button to switch to the inner perimeter. 4.
Control Description ‘S’ Sea clutter Radar echoes from waves can clutter the radar screen. The sea control suppresses these echoes (for up to 5 nm depending on conditions) making it easier to identify real objects. The higher the sea control is set the more echoes will be suppressed. ‘CG’...

Description Option IR level: • Level 1 (lowest suppression) Determines the level of suppression used. The • Level 2 higher the suppression the less interference will be displayed. • Level 3 • Level 4 Note: • Level 5 (highest suppression) Only available when Interference rejection is enabled.
Bearing alignment The radar’s bearing alignment ensures that radar echoes (objects) appear at the correct bearing relative to your vessel’s bow. You should check the bearing alignment for any new installation. Checking alignment Align the bow with a stationary object between 0.25 nm and 2 nm away. Reduce the gain sensitivity control to make the target as small as possible on the screen.
