1.12 Radar Introduction
A radar system operates in the microwave part of the radio frequency (RF) range. The
radar detects the position and movement of objects. Objects are shown on the radar
display at their measured distances and bearings in intensities according to echo
strength.
The radar display is available in head-up and north-up modes and orientation in true
and relative motion. The relative motion display shows other ships movement relative
to your ship. The true motion display shows your ship and other objects in motion according to their true courses and speeds.
A guard zone tells you when the radar targets are in the area you indicate. The trail of
targets can be shown in afterglow to monitor their movements.

1.13 Sounder (Fish Finder) Introduction
The sounder display provides a picture of the echoes found by the fish finder. Echoes
are scrolled across the screen from the right position to the left position.
The echoes at the right position are the current echoes. These echoes can be from
separate fish, a school of fish, or the bottom. Depth to the bottom is indicated always,
provided the gain is set correctly. You can scroll the echoes backward.
Both low and high TX frequencies are provided. (Frequencies depend on the transducer connected.) The low frequency has a wide detection area, which is for general
detection and understanding bottom conditions. The high frequency has a narrow
beam that helps you inspect fish.
The range, gain, clutter and TVG can be adjusted automatically according to your purpose (cruising or fishing) to let you do other tasks.

4.1 About Points, Event Marks
In navigation terminology, a point is any location you mark on the plotter or radar display. A point can be a fishing spot, reference point and other important locations. You
can use a point you have entered to set as a destination.
This unit has 30,000 points (including event marks) into which you can enter position
information.
When you enter a point, on the plotter or radar display, the point is put on the screen with
the point symbol selected as the default point
symbol. The position of the point, symbol and
color information are saved to the points list. You can show or hide the points, and the
default setting shows all points.
An event mark is used to mark current position on the plotter,
radar and sounder displays. When you enter an event mark,
it is entered on all of the above-mentioned displays, with the
event mark icon selected. The default event marks are
shown in the right figure. You can change them with the “default event symbol” items in the [Points] menu.

5. ROUTES
5.1 What is a Route?
A route is a series of route points leading to a final destination. When you follow a
route, the equipment automatically switches route points and provides pertinent navigation data.
The equipment can store a maximum of 200 routes with a maximum of 500 points per
route. Inactive routes on the display are shown with the “sleeping route” icon, pictured
below, to keep the screen from getting too cluttered.
You create a route by selecting geographical positions on the screen. These positions
are marked with numbered circles. A route that is being used for navigation is called
the “active route”.
The current leg of the active route is shown as a red dashed line and all preceding legs
are shown in light gray.
The routes on the screen can be edited from the pop-up menu. The following editing
features are available:
• Insert route points in a route
• Move route points in a route
• Delete route points from a route
• Extend a route
• Split routes
• Find information about a route
• Delete a route
• Set a route as destination
• Follow a route in the reverse direction
• Ignore a route point when following a route
Note: Active routes can be shared with other NavNet TZtouch2 units via LAN. Data is
shared automatically; no operation is required.
