The revolutionary FAR-28x7 series of X- and S-band radars are
the result of FURUNO’s 50 years of experience in marine electronics
and advanced computer technology. This series is designed to meet
the exacting standards of the International Maritime Organization
(IMO) for all ships.
The display unit employs a 23.1” LCD which provides an effective
picture diameter of larger than 340 mm. The SXGA monitor provides
crisp radar images, which are presented in a selectable color with
a day and night background color for easy observation in all lighting
conditions. Different colors are assigned for marks, symbols and texts
for user-friendly operations.
Target detection is enhanced by sophisticated signal processing
techniques.Two guard zones can be set at required ranges in any
sector. Other ship’s movements are assessed by advanced target
tracking software and alerted by CPA/TCPA data readouts.
The FAR-28x7 series can display AIS-equipped
ships, when connected with an AIS transponder.
The radar antenna is available with 4, 6.5, or 8 feet
radiator. For the X-band, the rotation speed is
selectable from 24 rpm for standard radars or 42
rpm for HSC. The S-band radar is also available
with the antenna radiator of 10 or 12 feet. The Sband radar assures target detection in adverse
weather where an X-band is heavily affected by sea
or rain clutter.

The radars can be connected to an Ethernet network for
a variety of user requirements. SOLAS Chapter V as
amended requires X- and S-band radars for ships 3000
GT and over. Each of X- and S-band radars can be
interswitched without using an extra option. Up to four
radars can be interchanged in the network. In addition,
the essential navigational information including
the electronic chart, L/L, COG, SOG, STW, etc.
can be shared in the network.

Tracking data
An AIS-equipped ship may be displayed by both AIS and ARPA
symbols. This is because the AIS position is measured by a GPS
in L/L while the ARPA target blip and data are measured by range
and bearing from own ship and located on the radar PPI.
When the symbols are within an operator-set criteria, the ARPA
symbol is merged in the AIS symbol. The criteria are determined
by the differences in range, bearing, course, speed, etc.

A variety of navigational information, own ship status, radar plotting
data, wind, water temperature and information from other shipborne
sensors are displayed on the cells. These selected targets are
marked with a square symbol on the radar display. Magnify is
a special feature of the FURUNO radars FAR-28x7 series. This looks
like a delayed-sweep zoom that the IMO strictly prohibits, but where
the Administration accepts, the Magnify feature enlarges part of radar
display for some special maritime activity.

RADAR MAP
The target trails feature generates monotone or gradual shading
afterglow on all objects on the display. The shading afterglow
paints the display just like on an analog PPI. The monotone
trails are useful to show own ship movement and other ship
tracks in a specific fishing operation. The trail time is adjustable
for 15, 30 s, 1, 3, 6, 15, 30 min or continuous. The target trails
are indicated in a different color from background. The unique
feature in this radar is a choice of True or Relative mode in
Relative Motion (only True in TM).
Up to 200 waypoints and up to 30 routes can be stored.
Each route may contain up to 30 waypoints. A radar map is
a combination of map lines and marks whereby the user can
define and input the navigation area, route planning and
monitoring data. The radar map has the capacity of 3,000
points for map lines and marks. The map data can be
memorized to facilitate repeated use on a routine navigation
area.

Map Marks
Automatic Acquisition Zone
Two automatic acquisition zones may be set in a sector or
any form. They also act as suppression zones, avoiding
unnecessary overloading to the processor and clutter by
disabling automatic acquisition and tracking outside them.
Targets in a automatic acquisition zone appear as inverse
triangle. The operator can manually acquire important targets
without restriction.
CPA Alarm Zone
Target tracking symbol changes to a triangle when its
predicted course (vector) violates the operator set
CPA/TCPA. The operator can readily change the vector
lengths to evaluate target movement trend.
Guard Zones and Anchor Watch Zone
Guard Zones generate visual and audible alarms when
targets enter the operator set zones. One of Guard Zones
may be used as an anchor watch to alert the operator when
own ship or targets drift away from the set zone.
