How To Activate/Deactivate The Target Analyzer - Furuno FAR-2228-BB Operator's Manual

1. OPERATIONAL OVERVIEW
Note 1: This function works best when the settings for [GAIN], [STC], [RAIN], [NOISE
REJECT] and [VIDEO CONTRAST] are properly adjusted (surface reflections are dis-
played in green and rain is displayed in gray).
Note 2: This function recognizes moving targets as approaching targets. Buoys and
other stationary objects are not recognized as approaching targets by this function.
Note 3: The target analyzer function requires a short period of time to analyze echoes
and display them on-screen. If your antenna revolves at more than 40 rpm, moving
targets may not be displayed correctly. For this reason, caution is advised when using
the target analyzer function.
Note 4: The target analyzer function's performance may be affected by factors such
as target size, weather and sea conditions, physical equipment configuration, offset
settings and other factors.
What is "hatching"?
Where echo averaging may hide light rain on the display, the hatching feature, when
activated, places a gray "veil" over the areas where rain is detected. This allows the
operator to see where the rain is without affecting the quality of the displayed echoes.
