DISTANCE AND DIRECTION MEASUREMENTS
• Using the variable range marker
q Push
]/ ]/ ]
cross line cursor on the target.
w Push [EBL1 (VRM1)] to display the EBL1 and
VRM1
• The EBL1 and VRM1 readouts indicate the target bear-
ing and distance.
• The EBL readouts indicate the target bearing;
0 to 360°R: Relative direction, when '360°R' is selected
in the EBL/PI of the "FUNCTION" menu.
(see p. 7)
P/S 0 to 180°: Bow direction, when 'PT/SB' is selected
in the EBL/PI of the "FUNCTION" menu.
(see p. 7)
0 to 360°T*: True or magnetic bearing, when selecting
'TRUE' in the EBL/PI of the "FUNCTION"
menu. (see p. 7)
* Bearing data is required. (p. 38)
e Push
]/ ]/ ]
cross line cursor on the another target.
r Push [EBL2 (VRM2)] to display the EBL2 and
VRM2.
• The EBL2 and VRM2 readouts indicate the target bear-
ing and distance.
t Push [EBL2 (VRM2)] once more to display the
EBL2 and VRM2 from the
.
VRM1 and EBL1
• When the [EBL2 (VRM2)] is pushed again, the center of
VRM2 appears at the intersection point of the EBL1 and
VRM1.
y Push [EBL2 (VRM2)] to clear the EBL2 and VRM2
indication.
• Push [EBL1 (VRM1)] to clear EBL2/VRM2 and
EBL1/VRM1 at the same time.
u Push [EBL1 (VRM1)] to clear EBL1 and VRM1.
NOTE: EBL2 and VRM2 will not be displayed on the screen
when VRM2 readout exceeds 20 times as long as the screen
range.
• The EBL2 and VRM2 readouts indicate remain on the
screen.
