Guard Zones

A zone or zones near or around your vessel
that alert you if a radar target enters or leaves
a zone. That makes it easier to be aware of
the movement of radar targets around you,
which improves collision avoidance.
There are two guard zones: Guard Zone 1
and Guard Zone 2.
You can control the shape, range, depth,
bearing, width and sensitivity of guard
zones.
