A waypoint is a position marked on a chart, radar or fishfinder window to indicate a site (for fishing, diving etc.) or as a place to navigate to.
Page 50: How Are Waypoints Represented
3.2 How are waypoints represented? Waypoints on 2D Chart and Radar windows On 2D chart and radar windows, a waypoint is represented when it is both active (displayed in a box) and inactive (no box) i.e. Default waypoint Waypoints on 3D Chart and CDI windows On 3D chart and CDI windows, a waypoint is represented only when it is active (displayed in a box).
Page 51: Placing A Waypoint
Chapter 3: Working with Waypoints 3.3 Placing a waypoint A waypoint can be placed at: • The cursor position. • Your vessel’s position. • At a position of your choosing (using lat/lon or Loran TD coordinates between 80 N/S).

Chapter 4: Using the Chart How can I use tracks? Tracks can be used to: • Review where you have been. • Retrace your original journey by converting the track to a route and automatically reversing it. If required, a track can be personalized and the track options customized to your own particular needs.
Page 104: Creating A Route From A Track
Creating a route from a track Creating a route from a track enables you to retrace the course of that track. When a track is converted the system creates the closest route through the recorded track, using the minimum number of waypoints. Each waypoint created will be saved with the depth and temperature data (if applicable) for that position.

Page 133: Chapter 6: Using The Fishfinder
Chapter 6: Using the Fishfinder Chapter 6: Using the Fishfinder 6.1 Introduction This chapter describes how the Fishfinder uses sonar to see fish, bottom structure and texture, and underwater obstructions such as wrecks. The standard fishfinder image is a historical, scrolling bottom graph at an automatically selected range and frequency.
Page 134: What Can The Fishfinder Show Me
6.3 What can the fishfinder show me? When you first view the fishfinder application, an image representing the echoes seen by the DSM is displayed. As time passes this image scrolls from right to left and becomes a record of the echoes seen. The images at the right hand side of the display are therefore the most recent.
Page 135: Interpreting The Bottom Structure
Chapter 6: Using the Fishfinder Interpreting the bottom structure The bottom usually produces a strong echo. These images indicate the bottom conditions as follows:. A hard bottom (sand) produces a thin line A soft bottom (mud or seaweed cover) produces a wide line. The dark layer indicates a strong signal.
Page 136: Factors Impairing A Fishfinder Picture
This is known as background noise or clutter and is controlled by the gain modes (gain, color gain and TVG). Raymarine recommends that you allow your system to automatically control the ideal sensitivity level based on depth and water conditions.

Page 152: Other Settings Affecting The Fishfinder Image
6.9 Other settings affecting the fishfinder image The system automatically adjusts the following settings in order to optimize the fishfinder image: • Operating frequency. • Gain modes (Gain, Color Gain, TVG) • Power setting. They should not ordinarily require adjustment. You can however make adjustments manually if required.
Page 153: Gain Modes
Chapter 6: Using the Fishfinder Dual frequency mode In dual frequency mode the DSM pings at the same rate but alternates between 200 kHz and 50 kHz. This allows you to select the required frequency(s) - 50kHz, 200 kHz or BOTH for each individual fishfinder window.
Page 154 The gain, or sensitivity, of the display adjusts background noise by varying the echo strength for display. The value of the GAIN control determines the strength above which echoes are displayed. There are three AUTO GAIN modes: • Low is ideal for viewing fishfinder images with a minimum of background noise as you are cruising to your fishing spot.
Page 155: Adjusting The Power Setting
Chapter 6: Using the Fishfinder TVG (Time Varied Gain) The TVG (Time Variable Gain) reduces the clutter by varying the gain throughout the water column. This function is useful for reducing the appearance of ‘noise’. Increasing the TVG value increases the maximum depth to which TVG is applied. Decreasing it reduces the maximum depth.

Page 158: Maximum Radar Range
Maximum radar range Maximum radar range is essentially line-of-sight, so is limited by the height of the scanner and the height of the target as illustrated below: Radar R max = radar horizon of antenna ( The table below shows typical maximum radar ranges for various radar antenna heights and target heights.
Page 159 Chapter 7: Using the Radar Side lobes Side lobe patterns are produced by small amounts of energy from the transmitted pulses that are radiated outside the narrow main beam. The effects of side lobes are most noticeable with targets at short ranges (normally below 3 nm), and in particular with larger objects.
Page 160 E-Series Networked Display Reference Manual Multiple echoes Multiple echoes are not very common but can occur if there is a large target with a wide vertical surface at a comparatively short range. The transmitted signal will be reflected back and forth between the target and your own ship, resulting in multiple echoes, displayed beyond the range of the true target echo, but on the same bearing.
Page 161 Chapter 7: Using the Radar Rain or snow clutter The radar can see echoes from rain or snow. Returns from storm areas and rain squalls consist of countless small echoes that continuously change size, intensity and position. These returns sometimes appear as large hazy areas, depending on the intensity of the rainfall or snow in the storm cell.

Page 175: Using Vrms And Ebls
Chapter 7: Using the Radar ... Using VRMs and EBLs What is a VRM? A Variable Range Marker (VRM) is a circle centred on your vessel’s position and fixed with respect to the heading mode. When this circle is adjusted to align with a target, its range from your boat is measured and displayed on the ADJUST VRM soft key.
Page 176 Tracking a target with a VRM/EBL You will be able to tell which way the target is traveling by watching how it moves in relation to the EBL. If it continues traveling directly along the EBL, it shows that it is on a possible collision course with your boat - take the appropriate action.
Page 177: Using Floating Vrms/Ebls
Chapter 7: Using the Radar ... Using floating VRMs/EBLs You can use the VRM/EBL float function to measure the range and bearing between any two points on the radar screen. This function allows you to move the VRM/EBL centre away from your boat’s position and onto a target. You can then change the radius of the VRM to determine the distance between two points and change the angle of the EBL, relative to its new origin, to obtain the bearing.

Page 182 How is a risk assessed? Each target is monitored to see if it will be within a certain distance from your boat within a certain time. If so, the target is designated as dangerous and an audible warning is sounded along with an on-screen warning being shown. The target symbol changes to the dangerous target symbol and flashes to indicate that it is a dangerous target.
Page 183 Chapter 7: Using the Radar CPA graphics CPA graphics show vectors for your vessel and a selected target. A vector is a line on- screen showing the predicted courses of your vessel and the selected target if you both remain on your present course. These vectors vary in length due to boat speed and vector length set in the MARPA Setup menu.
