Deleting An Existing Vrm/Ebl; Measuring Range And Bearing Between Targets (Float); Floating A Vrm/Ebl - Raymarine RL70C Owner's Handbook Manual

4. Press ENTER again to drop the VRM/EBL in its new position, or CLEAR to
abandon the operation and return the VRM/EBL to its previous position.
The radar shows the VRM/EBL as a short-dashed line (VRM/EBL1) or a
long-dashed line (VRM/EBL2), and the cursor returns to normal control.

Deleting an Existing VRM/EBL

➤ You can delete a VRM/EBL by using the VRM/EBL key to display the soft
keys, and pressing the required VRM/EBL soft key to toggle the setting from ON
to OFF.
➤ Alternatively, you can delete an existing VRM/EBL using the context-sensitive
cursor. To do so:
1. Move the cursor over the VRM/EBL you wish to control, until the letters
VRM, EBL, or VRM/EBL are displayed.
2. Press CLEAR.
This has the same effect as turning the VRM/EBL off using the
VRM/EBL soft keys. It turns off the VRM/EBL pair, irrespective of the
cursor text: you cannot turn off VRMs and EBLs independently.

Measuring Range and Bearing Between Targets (FLOAT)

You can measure the range and bearing between any two points on the radar,
such as two targets, using the Pathfinder Radar's Float function. This allows
you to move the origin of a VRM/EBL away from your vessel's position and
onto a target. You can then change the angle of the EBL, relative to its new
origin, to obtain the bearing between two points. The radius of the VRM can
also be adjusted to determine the distance between two points.

Floating a VRM/EBL

Note: You can float a VRM/EBL pair using either the soft keys or the context-
sensitive cursor. The procedure for using the cursor is the same as for moving
or unfloating a VRM/EBL pair, as described below; however, as it is more
difficult to locate the VRM/EBL origin when it is over the centre, you will
probably find it easier to use the keys in this case.
➤ To float a VRM/EBL pair using the keys:
1. If one is not already present, place a VRM/EBL pair as described in the
previous section.
2. Press VRM/EBL to display the VRM/EBL soft keys.
3. Press the FLOAT soft key. The soft keys are updated, with the relevant
options displayed.
