If you have a combined radar/chart display refer to Chapter 5 and Chapter 6 for information on charting operations.
Page 72: Range Control
PLUS Series Color LCD Display 3.2 Range Control The radar picture can be viewed at various scales. The shortest range scale gives a maximum range of nautical miles, measured from the default centre to the top of the radar picture. The longest range scale gives a maximum range of between 24 and 72 nautical miles depending on your scanner.

This section explains how to change these modes and describes the effect of each mode.
Page 82 3-12 PLUS Series Color LCD Display Interference Rejection Mutual radar interference is likely when two or more radar-equipped vessels are operating within range of each other. This usually appears as a series of small dots moving to and from the display center in a straight line or a long, sweeping curve.
Page 83: Measuring Range And Bearing Using Vrm/Ebls
Chapter 3: Standard Radar Operations 3-13 3.4 Measuring Range and Bearing Using VRM/EBLs The Pathfinder Plus Radar display allows you to specify up to two Electronic Bearing Lines (EBLs), each with an associated Variable Range Marker (VRM), using the VRM/EBL key. A standard VRM is displayed as a circle with its centre on your vessel’s position, and it’s EBL is displayed as a line from the origin to the edge of the radar picture display.
Page 84: Measuring Range And Bearing To Target From Vessel
3-14 PLUS Series Color LCD Display • Measure the bearing of a target or point from your vessel’s position, using an EBL • Measure the range and bearing between any two points on the radar, using the FLOAT function Note: An alternative method of measuring range and bearing is to use the cur- sor data box: If the cursor readout is set to display range and bearing (rather than Lat/Long), you can determine the range and bearing by moving the cur- sor over the target and checking the cursor data box readings.

Page 204 SeaTalk The SeaTalk standard was originally developed by Autohelm (part of Raymarine), and allows compatible instruments to be connected by a single cable carrying power and data in/out. This means that additional instruments and functions can be added to a SeaTalk system, simply by plugging them into the network.
Page 205: Seatalk Connection
Chapter 8: Installation 8-27 SeaTalk Connection This connection is necessary for full functionality between series displays. SeaTalk data, if present, is the primary source for all navigational data except heading. The SeaTalk input/output should be connected at the rear SeaTalk 3-pin connector.

Chapter 8: Installation 8-29 Using the SeaTalk Auxiliary Junction Box A junction box (provided with the radar/chart and chart displays; optional with the radar displays) is used to connect the SeaTalk system to the series display unit. This junction box enables the SeaTalk bus, power and GPS to be connected.

Appendix C: C-MAP Chart Card Features Appendix C: C-MAP Chart Card Features The C_MAP chart cards display cartographic features which are derived from a library of symbols. The library includes a set of 16 x 16 pixel bitmaps which provide realistically shaped icons for many chart objects. However, these complex icons can overlap and clutter the display at some scales, so it possible for the user to select smaller, simple icons.
