Display timing
The display timing can be affected by the length of cable used to connect the scanner
to your C-Series display. This will in turn affect the short range accuracy of the radar. A
symptom of incorrect timing is that bridges or piers shown on the picture appear to be
bowed i.e.

To check the display timing:
1. Use the RANGE button to select the 1/8 nm scale.
2. On the radar picture locate a straight dock, seawall or bridge that is facing your
boat. If the image is bent or bowed, the display timing will need adjustment
Under certain circumstances, it may be easier to adjust the display timing with Main
Bang Suppression (MBS) OFF.
MBS is reset to ON automatically when you finish adjusting the display timing.
