How to check radar performance
The range scale is automatically set to 24 NM. The radar screen will show arcs. You
can set the number of arcs. If the radar transmitter and receiver are in good working
order in as much as the original state when the monitor was turned on, the innermost
arc should appear between 8.0 NM and 19.8 NM. The performance monitor can ob-
serve a total of 10 dB loss in the transmitter and receiver.
Note 1: The location of the arcs changes with the setting of [ARC].
Note 2: When [ARC] (the number of arcs) is set to [0] (see "How to set the number of
arcs" below), there are no arc indications. Only the performance monitor graph is dis-
played in the information box.
How to set the number of arcs
1. Open the menu then select the [1 ECHO] menu. Select [6 PERFORMANCE MON]
(B type) or [5 PERFORMANCE MON] (IMO and A types).
2. Select [0], [2], [3], [5] or [6] in [ARC].
