Radar settings

Radar overlay configuration
With a compatible radar connected via ethernet, the radar PPI can be superimposed on the
chart screen.
• Check Enabled to turn on overlay
• The Data port setting should not need adjustment as is set by default for Simrad IMO radar
• Set the Data received timeout, to stop overlay if no fresh data is provided
•
Set an approximate location on vessel for the radar scanner
¼ Note:
Setting the sensor location for radar is important, as it will influence accuracy of radar
PPI placement over chart. This effect will be most noticeable when viewing chart at small
scales.
¼ Note:
In order to overlay radar on chart display, a high accuracy heading source must be pres-
ent.
