Ship Speed Indication; Position Indication; Waypoint Indication; Long Pulse Function - Icom MR-1000RII Instruction Manual

■ Ship speed indication

When the ship speed data in NMEA 0183 format is ap-
plied, the radar can display the ship speed. Knots (KT)
or kilometers/hour (KM/h) are automatically selected
in the normal screen (p. 3) by selecting nautical miles
(NM) or kilometers (KM) respectively.
q Push [MENU]/[ ] one or more times to call up
the FUNCTION menu.
w Hold down [q ] until the "DIST UNIT" section
becomes highlighted.
e Push [t] [u] to select the ship speed indication to
NM or KM.
r Push [MENU]/[ ] one or more times to exit the
menu display or push [q] once to proceed to the
position display setting.

■ Position indication

When latitude/longitude data in NMEA 0183 format is
applied, the radar can display the latitude and longi-
tude of your ship's or cursor position in the bottom of
the display. (To display the CURSOR position, bearing
data is necessary.) (p. 38)
q Push [MENU]/[ ] one or more times to call up
the FUNCTION menu.
w Hold down [q] until "POSN DISP" section becomes
highlighted.
e Push [t] [u] to select the ship position or cursor
position.
r Push [MENU] one or more times to exit the menu.

■ Waypoint indication

When waypoint data received from navigation equip-
ment in NMEA 0183 format is applied, the radar can
display the waypoint. To display the waypoint marker,
bearing data is necessary. (p. 38)
q Push [MENU]/[ ] one or more times to call up
the FUNCTION menu.
w Hold down [q] until the "WPT" section becomes
highlighted.
e Push [t] [u] to turn the waypoint icon ON or OFF.
r Push [MENU]/[ ] one or more times to exit the
menu display.

■ Long pulse function

To magnify the blips for easier viewing of small tar-
gets, the long pulse and echo stretch (p. 10) functions
are usable. When the long pulse is used in the
NM range, this function magnifies target echoes to the
backward direction of the target.
• Pulse selection
q Push [MENU]/[ ] one or more times to call up
the VIDEO menu. (p. 5)
w Hold down [q] until the "PULSE" section becomes
highlighted.
e Push [t] [u] to select SP (Short Pulse) or LP
(Long Pulse).
• When "LP" is selected, "
the screen.
r Push [MENU]/[ ] one or more times to exit the
menu.
NOTE: To select SP (Short Pulse) reduces the
target distance resolution. (p. 22)

■ Bearing setting

The radar bearing interface accepts NMEA, N+1 or
AUX data format and the bearing can use a magnetic
or true north type. When a true north type bearing is
used, the variation from magnetic north, etc., can be
adjusted on 0.1˚ steps.
D Setting the bearing type
q Push [MENU]/[ ] one or more times to call up
the FUNCTION menu.
w Hold down [q] until the "BRG" section becomes
highlighted.
e Push [t] [u] to select magnetic or true north type.
• All displayed bearing readouts show the selected bear-
ing type.
D Setting the magnetic variation
q Push [MENU]/[ ] one or more times to call up
the INT. SETTING menu.
w Hold down [q] until the "MAG VAR" sections be-
comes highlighted.
e Push [t] [u] to select an AUTO* or MANUAL varia-
tion.
r When a MANUAL variation is selected, push [q],
then push [t] [u] to set the bearing variation.
t Push [MENU]/[ ] to exit the menu display or
push [q] once to proceed to the bearing input set-
ting.
* NOTE: NMEA data is required for auto variation. NEVER
select "AUTO" variation without NMEA data, incorrect varia-
tion data may entered.
