Plotting Other Ships' Track; Choosing Track Color - Furuno FA Manual

5. VIDEO PLOTTER OPERATION
5.9.2

Plotting other ships' track

The tracks of 10 targets (other ships) can be recorded. The memory capacity for
other ships' track is 20,000 points, but this value is divided equally among ten
targets, so there are 2,000 points per target. When the other ships' track memory
becomes full the oldest track is deleted to make room for the latest. For that
reason you may want to adjust the recording interval to conserve the memory.
Note that the track of ARP targets 1 thru 10 may be displayed. The track of ARP
targets 11 thru 30 cannot be displayed.
Note: This feature is not available on the IMO-type radar.
The table below shows the relation between plotting interval and maximum track
recording time for other ships' track.
