The term “RADAR” is an acronym meaning RAdio Detection And Ranging. Although the basic principles of radar were developed during World War II, echoes as an aid to navigation is not a new development.
Before the invention of radar, when running in fog near a rugged shoreline, ships would sound a short blast on their whistles, fire a shot, or strike a bell. The time between the origination of the sound and the returning of the echo indicated how far the ship was from the cliffs or the shore. The direction from which the echo was heard indicated the relative bearing of the shore.
Radar determines the distance to the target by calculating the time difference between the transmission of a radar signal and the reception of the reflected echo. It is a known fact that radar waves travel at a nearly constant speed of 162,000 nautical miles per second. Therefore the time required for a transmitted signal to travel to the target and return as an echo to the source is a measure of the distance to the target. Note that the echo makes a complete round trip, but only half the time of travel is needed to determine the one-way distance to the target. This radar automatically takes this into account in making the range calculation.
The bearing to a target found by the radar is determined by the direction in which the radar scanner antenna is pointing when it emits an electronic pulse and then receives a returning echo. Each time the scanner rotates pulses are transmitted in the full 360 degree circle, each pulse at a slightly different bearing from the previous one. Therefore, if one knows the direction in which the signal is sent out, one knows the direction from which the echo must return.
Note that the speed of the radar waves out to the target and back again as echoes is extremely fast compared to the speed of rotation of the antenna. By the time radar echoes have returned to the scanner, the amount of scanner rotation after initial transmission of the radar pulse is extremely small.
The range and bearing of a target is displayed on what is called a Plan Position Indicator (PPI). This display is essentially a polar diagram, with the transmitting ship’s position at the center. Images of target echoes are received and displayed at their relative bearings, and at their distance from the PPI center.
With a continuous display of the images of targets, the motion of the transmitting ship is also displayed.

Press the [POWER] key to turn the radar on or off.
The control panel lights and a timer displays the time remaining for warm up of the magnetron (the device which produces radar pulses), counting down from 1:30 to 0:01.
After the power is turned on and the magnetron has warmed up, STBY (Stand-By) appears at the screen center. This means the radar is now fully operational. In stand-by the radar is available for use at anytime - but no radar waves are being transmitted.
Press the [STBY TX] key to transmit.
When transmitting, any echoes from targets appear on the display. This radar displays echoes in eight tones of green according to echo strength.
When you won’t be using the radar for an extended period, but you want to keep it in a state of readiness, place it in stand-by by pressing the [STBY TX] key. The display shows “STBY,” navigation data, or goes into the economy mode depending on menu setting. (More on menu operation later.)
Economy mode
The CRT can be set to automatically turn itself off when in stand-by, to reduce power consumption. This feature is called the “economy mode.” Power consumption in the economy mode is 28 W. When the economy mode is on, the lamp next to the [POWER] key lights.
Navigation data display during stand-by
If a navigation aid inputs navigation data to this radar, navigation data can be displayed during stand-by. You can turn the navigation data display on/off through the menu. Figure 2-3 shows a typical navigation data display during standby.

Note 1: Availability of a particular display item depends on incoming data.
Note 2: When Range to Waypoint reaches 0.1 nm, the WPT mark jumps to dead ahead even though a difference may exist between heading and BRG to WPT.
Note 3: When cross track error exceeds 1 nm on either side, the XTE mark starts blinking.
The range selected automatically determines the range ring interval, the number of range rings, pulselength and pulse repetition rate, for optimal detection capability in short to long ranges.
You can select which ranges and pulselength (for 1.5 and 3 mile ranges) to use through the menu. The range, range ring interval and pulselength appear at the top left-hand corner of the display.
To select a range;
Press the [- RANGE +] key. The range and range ring interval appear at the top left corner on the display.
Tips for selecting the range
¡When navigating in or around crowded harbors, select a short range to watch for possible collision situations.
¡If you select a lower range while on open water, increase the range occasionally to watch for vessels that may be heading your way.
The [BRILL] key adjusts the brilliance of the radar picture in sixteen levels.
Press the [BRILL] key to set the brilliance level. The current level momentarily appears on the screen.
The [GAIN] control adjusts the sensitivity of the receiver. It works in precisely the same manner as the volume control of a broadcast receiver, amplifying the signals received.
The proper setting is such that the background noise is just visible on the screen. If you set up for too little sensitivity, weak echoes may be missed. On the other hand excessive sensitivity yields too much background noise; strong targets may be missed because of the poor contrast between desired echoes and the background noise on the display.
To adjust receiver sensitivity, transmit on long range, and adjust the [GAIN] control so background noise is just visible on the screen.
Echoes from waves can be troublesome, covering the central part of the display with random signals known as “sea clutter.” The higher the waves, and the higher the scanner above the water, the further the clutter will extend. Sea clutter appears on the display as many small echoes which might affect radar performance. (See the left-hand figure in Figure 2-4.) When sea clutter masks the picture, adjust the A/C SEA control to reduce the clutter.
How the A/C SEA control works
The [A/C SEA] control reduces the amplification of echoes at short ranges (where clutter is the greatest) and progressively increases amplification as the range increases, so amplification will be normal at those ranges where there is no sea clutter.

Adjusting the A/C SEA control
The proper setting of the A/C SEA should be such that the clutter is broken up into small dots, and small targets become distinguishable.
If the control is set too low, targets will be hidden in the clutter, while if it is set too high, both sea clutter and targets will disappear from the display. In most cases adjust the control until clutter has disappeared to leeward, but a little is still visible windward.
1.Confirm that the sensitivity is properly adjusted, and then transmit on short range.
2.Adjust the [A/C SEA] control so small targets are distinguishable but some clutter remains on the display.

Tip for adjusting the A/C SEA
A common mistake is to over-adjust the circuit so all the clutter is removed. As an example set up for maximum A/C SEA. You will see how the center of the display becomes dark. This dark zone can be dangerous (targets may be missed), especially if the sensitivity is not properly adjusted. Always leave a little clutter visible on the display to be sure weak echoes will not be suppressed. If there is no clutter visible on the display, turn off the circuit.
The vertical beamwidth of the antenna is designed to see surface targets even when the ship is rolling. However, by this design the unit will also detect rain clutter (rain, snow, hail, etc.) in the same manner as normal targets. Figure 2-5 shows the appearance of rain clutter on the display.
Adjusting A/C RAIN
When rain clutter masks echoes, adjust the [A/ C RAIN] control. This control splits up these unwanted echoes into a speckled pattern, making recognition of solid targets easier.

Figure 2-5 Effect of A/C RAIN
Note: In addition to reducing clutter, the [A/C RAIN] control can be used in fine weather to clarify the picture when navigating in confined waters. However, with the circuit activated the receiver is less sensitive. Therefore, turn off the circuit when its function is not required.
Automatic adjustments of A/C SEA and A/C RAIN
Push the [A/C AUTO] key. “A/C AUTO” appears at the bottom left-hand corner of the display when the A/C AUTO circuit is on. You can fine tune by adjusting the [A/C SEA], [A/C RAIN] and [GAIN] controls.

2.11 Erasing the Heading Line,
North Mark
The heading line or north mark (available with gyrocompass connection) may occasionally mask a target. To view the target, you can temporarily erase the heading line and north mark by pressing and holding down the [GAIN (HM OFF)] control. Release the control to re-display the marks.

You can measure the range to a target three ways: by the range rings, by the cursor, and by the VRM (Variable Range Marker).
By range ring
Count the number of rings between the center of the display and the target. Check the range ring interval and judge the distance of the echo from the inner edge of the nearest ring.
By cursor
Operate the omnipad to place the cursor intersection on the inside edge of the target echo, The range to the target, as well as the bearing, appears at the bottom of the display.
By VRM
1.Press the [EBL/VRM SELECT] key to circumscribe a VRM readout (at the bottom right-hand corner). Each press of the key selects the readout of EBL1, EBL2, VRM1 or VRM2 in that order.

2.Press the [EBL/VRM CONTROL] key to enable control of the VRM by the omnipad.
3.Operate the omnipad to place the outside edge of the VRM on the inside edge of the target.
4.Check the VRM readout at the bottom righthand corner of the display to find the range to the target.
5.To anchor the VRM, press the [EBL/VRM CONTROL] key.
To erase the VRM, press and hold down the [EBL/VRM CONTROL] key about two seconds.
