Radar Operational Modes - Lowrance HDS PRO Operator's Manual

Ú Note:
Interference will be seen on the Broadband Radar on
most ranges when a pulse or Halo radar, and a Broadband radar
are transmitting at the same time on the same vessel. We
recommend to only transmit on one radar at a time. For
example, transmit Broadband radar for typical navigational
usage, or pulse or Halo radar to locate weather cells, defined
coastlines at a distance and to trigger Racons.
Selecting the radar source
You specify the radar in the Radar panel by selecting one of the
available radars in the radar source menu option. If you have a
multiple Radar panel, the radar is set individually for each radar
panel. Activate one of the radar panels, and then select one of the
available radars in the radar source menu option. Repeat the
process for the second radar panel, and select an alternative radar
for this panel.
Ú Note:
The 3-digit radar source number is the last 3 digits of the
radar's serial number.

The following modes are available:
