  • Page 36: Reducing Sea Clutter

    2. RADAR OPERATION Reducing Sea Clutter 2.5.1 How the A/C SEA works Echoes from waves can be troublesome, covering the central part of the display with random signals known as “sea clutter”. The higher the waves and the higher the antenna is above the water, the further the clutter will extend. Sea clutter may affect radar performance because real targets are sometimes hidden by the echoes of small waves.
  • Page 37: Reducing Precipitation Clutter

    5. When the radar source is the Model 1833/C series radar, A/C SEA and A/C RAIN can be automatically adjusted. Press the A/C AT soft key to select ON or OFF as appropriate. When turned on, it overrides A/C SEA and A/C RAIN settings.
  • Page 38: Adjusting The Ftc

    2. RADAR OPERATION 2.6.2 Adjusting the FTC To suppress rain clutter from heavy storms or scattered rain clutter, adjust the FTC. The FTC splits up these unwanted echoes into a speckled pattern, making recognition of solid targets easier. Note: In addition to reducing clutter, the FTC can be used in fine weather to clarify the picture when navigating in confined waters.

    2. RADAR OPERATION Pulselength The pulselength in use is displayed at the upper left corner of the display. Appropriate pulselengths are preset to individual range scales. Therefore, you are not usually required to select them. If you are not satisfied with the current pulselength setting, however, it is possible to change it for the 1.5 and 3 nm (sm) ranges (3 and 6 kilometer ranges) as below.
  • Page 41: Presentation Mode

    Presentation Mode This unit provides four radar presentation modes: head-up, course-up, north-up and true motion. Heading data is required for modes other than head-up.

The targets are painted at their measured distances and in their directions relative to own ship’s heading. The short line on the bearing scale is the north marker.
  • Page 43 2. RADAR OPERATION North-up (NU) In the north-up mode, targets are painted at their measured distances and in their true (compass) directions from own ship. North is maintained at the top of the screen. The heading line changes its direction according to the ship’s heading.
  • Page 44: Measuring The Range

    2. RADAR OPERATION 2.10 Measuring the Range You can measure the range to a radar target three ways: by the range rings, by the cursor, and by the VRM (Variable Range Marker). 2.10.1 Measuring range by range rings Count the number of rings between the center of the display and the target. Check the range ring interval and judge the distance of the echo from the inner edge of the nearest ring.
  • Page 45: Measuring Range By Cursor

  • Page 62: Guard Alarm

    2. RADAR OPERATION 2.22 Guard Alarm The guard alarm allows the operator to set the desired range and bearing for a guard zone. When ships, islands, landmasses, etc. violate the guard zone, an audio alarm sounds and the offending target blinks to call the operator’s attention.
  • Page 63: When The Alarm Is Violated

    The equipment then searches for targets inside the guard zone to determine the guard alarm type. If a target is found inside the guard zone the guard zone type becomes an “Outward guard alarm”, and any target exiting, the guard zone will trigger an alarm.
  • Page 64: Watchman

    2. RADAR OPERATION 2.23 Watchman 2.23.1 How watchman works The watchman function periodically transmits radar pulses for one minute to check for targets in a guard zone. If a target is found in the zone, watchman is cancelled, the audio alarm sounds and the radar continues transmitting. If no target is found the radar goes into standby, for the number of minutes selected on the RADAR DISPLAY SETUP menu.

    2. RADAR OPERATION 2.25.4 Terminating tracking of ARP targets When 10 targets have been acquired, no more targets may be acquired unless targets are cancelled. If you need to acquire additional targets, you must first cancel one or more individual targets, or all of the targets, using one of the procedures below.
  • Page 71: Setting Vector Attributes (Arp)

    2.25.5 Setting vector attributes (ARP) What is a vector? A vector is a line extending from a tracked target which shows estimated speed and course of the target. The vector tip shows an estimated position of the target after the selected vector time elapses. It can be useful to extend the vector length in order to evaluate the risk of collision with any target.
  • Page 72: Displaying Past Position Display (Arp)

    2. RADAR OPERATION 2.25.6 Displaying past position display (ARP) This ARP can display time-spaced dots (maximum 10 dots) marking the past positions of any targets being tracked. You can evaluate a target’s actions by the spacing between dots. Below are examples of dot spacing and target movement. To turn the past position display on or off: 1.

    2. RADAR OPERATION 2.25.8 CPA/TCPA alarm (ARP) When the predicted CPA of any target becomes smaller than a preset CPA alarm range or its predicted TCPA less than a preset TCPA alarm limit, an audio alarm sounds, which you may silence with the [CLEAR] key. In addition, the target plot symbol of the offending target changes to a triangle and flashes together with its vector.

  • Page 76: Interpreting The Radar Display

    2. RADAR OPERATION 2.26 Interpreting the Radar Display 2.26.1 General Minimum and maximum ranges Minimum range The minimum range is defined by the shortest distance at which, using a scale of 1.5 or 0.75 nm, a target having an echoing area of 10 m from the point representing the antenna position.
  • Page 77 2. RADAR OPERATION Radar resolution There are two important factors in radar resolution (discrimination): bearing resolution and range resolution. Bearing resolution Bearing resolution is the ability of the radar to display the echoes received from two targets, which are at the same range and close together, as separate targets.
  • Page 78: False Echoes

    2. RADAR OPERATION 2.26.2 False echoes Occasionally echo signals appear on the screen at positions where there is no target, or disappear even if there are targets. False target situations may be recognized, however, if you understand why they are displayed. Typical false echoes are shown below.
  • Page 79 Virtual image A relatively large target close to your ship may be shown at two positions on the screen. One of them is the true echo directly reflected by the target and the other is a false echo which is caused by the mirror effect of a large object on or close to your ship as shown in the figure below.
  • Page 80: Sart (Search And Rescue Transponder)

    2. RADAR OPERATION 2.26.3 SART (Search and Rescue Transponder) A Search and Rescue Transponder (SART) may be triggered by any X-Band (3 cm) radar within a range of approximately 8 nm. Each radar pulse received causes it to transmit a response which is swept repetitively across the complete radar frequency band.
  • Page 81 2. RADAR OPERATION General procedure for detecting SART response 1. Use the range scale of 6 or 12 nm as the spacing between the SART responses is about 0.6 nm (1125 m) to distinguish the SART. 2. Turn off the automatic clutter suppression (if applicable). 3.
  • Page 82: Racon (Radar Beacon)

    2. RADAR OPERATION A/C SEA control For optimum range SART detection, this control should be set to the minimum. Care should be exercised as wanted target in sea clutter may be obscured. Note also that in clutter conditions the first few dots of the SART response may not be detectable, irrespective of the setting of the anti-clutter sea control.
