WARNING

Radio Frequency Radiation Hazard

The radar antenna emits electromagnetic radio frequency (RF) energy that can be harmful, particularly to your eyes. Never look directly into the antenna aperture from a close distance while the radar is in operation or expose yourself to the transmitting antenna at a close distance. Distances at which RF radiation level of 100, 50 and 10 W/m below.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING

Do not open the equipment.

The equipment uses high voltage that can cause electrical shock. Refer any repair work to a qualified technician.

Before turning on the radar, be sure no one is near the antenna.

Prevent the potential risk of being struck by the rotating antenna, which can result in serious injury or death.

If water leaks into the equipment or something is dropped into the equipment, immediately turn off the power at the switchboard.

Fire or electrical shock can result.

If the equipment is giving off smoke or fire, immediately turn off the power at the switchboard.

Fire or electrical shock can result.

If you feel the equipment is acting abnormally or giving off strange noises, immediately turn off the power at the switchboard and contact a FURUNO service technician.

Do not disassemble or modify the equipment.

Fire, electrical shock or serious injury can result.

Make sure no rain or water splash leaks into the equipment.

Fire or electrical shock can result if water leaks into the equipment.

WARNING

Do not operate the equipment with wet hands.

Electrical shock can result.

Keep objects away from the opentype antenna unit, so as not to impede rotation of the antenna.

Fire, electrical shock or serious injury can result.

Use the proper fuse.

Use of the wrong fuse can cause fire or damage the equipment.

The TT function is a valuable aid to navigation. However, the navigator must check all aids available to avoid collision.

- The TT automatically tracks an automatically or manually acquired radar target and calculates its course and speed, indicating them with a vector. Since the data generated by the TT depends on the selected radar targets, the radar must be optimally tuned for use with the TT, to ensure required targets will not be lost or unnecessary targets, like sea returns and noise, will not be acquired and tracked.

- A target is not always a landmass, reef, ship, but can also be returns from the sea surface and from clutter. As the level of clutter changes with the environment, the operator must correctly adjust the sea and rain clutter controls and the gain control so that the target echoes do not dis appear from the radar screen.

Do not place liquid-filled containers on or near the equipment.

Fire or electrical shock can result if a liquid spills into the equipment.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

CAUTION

CAUTIO

The plotting accuracy and response of this TT meets IMO standards. Tracking accuracy is affected by the following:

•

Tracking accuracy is affected by course change. One to two minutes is required to restore vectors to full accuracy after an abrupt course change. (The actual amount depends on gyrocompass specifications.)

•

The amount of tracking delay is inversely proportional to the relative speed of the target. Delay is approx. 15-30 seconds for the higher relative speed; approx. 30-60 seconds for the lower relative speed. The following factors can affect accuracy:

- Echo intensity

- Radar transmission pulse length

- Radar bearing error

- Gyrocompass error

- Course change (own ship and targets)

Warning Label(s)

Warning label(s) is(are) attached to the equipment. Do not remove the label(s). If a label is missing or damaged, contact a FURUNO agent or dealer about replacement.

WARNING

To avoid electrical shock, do not remove cover. No user-serviceable parts inside.

WARNING

Radiation hazard. Only qualified personnel should work inside scanner. Confirm that TX has stopped before opening scanner.

Handle the LCD carefully.

The LCD is made of glass, which can cause injury if broken.

The data presented by this equipment is intended as a source of navigation information.

The prudent navigator never relies exclusively on any one source of navigation information, for safety of vessel and crew.

• Many warning features to support safer and more efficient navigation.

• Grounding warnings, safe depth contours.

• Chart database loaded and updated using CD-ROMs.

• Tracked Target (TT) data and AIS data to aid in collision avoidance.

• AIS messaging.

• Route created in chart mode can be displayed on the radar.

• Route planning and route monitoring facilities in the chart mode.

Signal Processing Functions

This radar has the signal processing functions described in the table below. All signal processing functions are set with the picture preset feature.

Signal processing function Description Section

Interference rejector Suppress interference transmitted by other radars. Inter-

ference received simultaneously from many radars can be difficult to reduce.

Echo stretch Enlarge target echoes, especially small echoes. Sup-

press interference, sea clutter and rain clutter before using echo stretch, to prevent the enlargement of unwanted echoes.

Echo averaging The radar samples echoes with each scan. Targets that

show a large change with each scan are judged as clutter and are reduced to display only echoes from legitimate targets.

Automatic clutter elimination Discriminate the clutter from the radar echo then reduce

the clutter automatically.

Noise rejector Reduce the white noise then improves the on-screen S/N

ratio by processing the weighted moving average filter for the received echoes in the range direction. Use this function with caution. Weak target echoes may disappear from the screen or the range resolution may worsen.

Virus Prevention

This equipment is not equipped with a virus checker. This equipment operates in real time; therefore, having a virus checker that periodically checks the equipment for viruses would increase the processing load, which can affect operation. However, you can avoid viruses by following the instructions in this section.

When you update a chart

The PC and medium (USB flash memory, etc.) used to download and store an update for an existing chart or a new chart may be infected with a virus. Check the PC and the medium for viruses with a commercial virus checker - BEFORE you connect them to the ECDIS. Be sure the virus checker contains the latest virus definition files.

Network connection

The ECDIS receives and displays information from various navigation equipment and radar via a LAN. A PC and other equipment connected to a network can carry viruses. To prevent the introduction of a virus to the LAN, DO NOT connect the ECDIS or HUB to an external network, including other shipboard LAN.

Do not install 3rd party programs in the ECDIS

Programs installed via an external network can carry viruses that can cause the ECDIS to malfunction. Do not install any Windows

software.

also turned on or off with this switch.)

2 Status LED The color and state of the LED change according to system or alert status.

Green, lighting: Normal operation status; no alerts generated. Green, flashing: The heater on the CPU board is on, because ambient

temperature is not at least 0°C. The heater takes about two minutes to warm the equipment. The LED lights green after the heater goes off. Red, lighting: Acknowledged alert or SYSTEM FAIL. SYSTEM FAIL occurs when there is trouble in the Processor Unit or communication failure between the Processor Unit and a Control Unit. Each Control Unit detects trouble and its lamp flashes in red and the buzzer sounds. If this condition occurs at the No. 1 Control Unit, the SYSTEM FAIL signal is output.
