Reference
• True: Regardless of the movement of your
vessel, the trail of other vessels displays a
real movement over ground. Therefore, a
stopped target's trail is not displayed. The
True trail requires a heading signal and
your own vessel's position information.
• Relative: The trail of other vessels is relative to
your vessel. In this mode, other vessels’
movement and your vessel’s movement
are combined, so, Relative trail is valid if
you want to look at the relative movement
to avoid collisions. However, a stopped
target’s trail is also displayed. In that
case, it is difcult to see in some places
such as near islands.
L Regardless of this setting, the display acts as:
• The Relative trail setting when the Head-UP (H-UP)
screen is selected.
• The True trail setting when the True motion (TM)
screen is selected.

The simplied Automatic Radar Plotting Aids (ARPA) function is designed to help prevent a collision with other
vessels or landmasses.
The radar automatically acquires and plots other vessels and landmasses that are in the set watch area. It
automatically calculates the closest point of approach (CPA), and the time to closest point of approach (TCPA)
limit of your vessel and the targets, and sounds an alarm if there is a danger of colliding with them.
ARPA Features
• Only targets in the 0.25 to 16 NM range that are displayed with a high luminosity (strong return signal) can be
selected as ARPA targets.
• Up to 10 targets can be acquired and plotted on the screen, including up to 5 automatically acquired targets
(when the Auto Acquire function (p.25) is turned ON in the Menu screen).
• Plot positions are identied by an approved symbol mark (p. 24) and associated plot number.
• The target and vector line will move across the screen at the rate and direction dened by the calculated true or
relative course and speed.
• The vector line is displayed on the target.

■ About AIS
AIS RECEIVER
6
The Automatic Identication System (AIS) is primarily used
for collision-risk management and navigation safety. It
automatically transmits and receives vessel information,
such as the vessel name, MMSI code, vessel type, position
data, speed, course, destination and more. Information
is exchanged among the vessels and/or base stations on
the VHF maritime mobile band. The information helps to
identify other nearby vessels or stations by displaying the
received data on a plotter or a radar screen.
There are 7 types of AIS stations, vessels, base stations,
Search and Rescue (SAR), Aids to Navigation (AtoN),
Search and Rescue Transmitter (AIS-SART), Man
OverBoard (MOB), and Emergency Position Indicating
Radio Beacon-AIS (EPIRB-AIS).
Also, there are 2 classes of AIS units, which are installed on
vessels, Class A and Class B.

Slow Warn (Default: ON)
The AIS unit calculated COG (Course Over Ground)
data of a vessel that is at anchor or drifting is
unreliable, and therefore the CPA (Closest Point of
Approach) and TCPA (Time to CPA) data may not
be correctly calculated. If a vessel is anchored in
your alarm zone, the unreliable data can cause the
collision alarm to sound many times, even if there is
no real danger. To prevent this, when the anchored
vessel’s SOG (Speed Over Ground) is less than
this set value, the Slow Warn function assumes that
vessel’s COG is xed towards your vessel and an
alarm will sound.
• OFF: Turn OFF the Slow Warn function.
• ON: Turn ON the Slow Warn function.
Slow Warn Speed (Default: 0.1kn)
Selects the vessel’s speed to between 0.1 and 5.0

Radar uses a form of electromagnetic radiation that can be reected off a large vessel, bridge, or other metal
objects that are in proximity. Because of this property, unwanted reections off some objects may cause false
echoes to appear on the screen where in fact no actual targets exist. Operators should be familiar with the effect
of this phenomena. In some cases, echoes can be reduced.
BASIC RADAR THEORY
■ Sidelobe echoes
Radiation can escape on each side of the beam
inside the sidelobes. If a target reects this radiation,
it will be displayed on the screen as an echo.
■ Indirect echoes
Indirect echoes may be returned from either a
passing vessel, or returned from a reecting surface,
such as a mast on your own vessel.
Sidelobe echoes usually occur at short ranges and as
a result of large (strongly reective) targets. They can
be reduced with proper adjustment of the
control.
See page 9 for details of the
An indirect echo from a reective surface will appear
on a different bearing from the direct (true) echo, but
the distance will be approximately the same for both.

Multiple echoes may appear when a short-range
and strong echo is received from a vessel, bridge, or
breakwater.
■ Minimum range
Detection at short range is very important. Minimum
range is determined primarily by transmitter pulse
length, vertical beam width and height of the scanner
unit. The shorter the transmission time, the quicker
the return echoes can be received and their distance
measured.
Multiple echoes will appear beyond the target’s true
echo point on the same bearing of a large target.
They can be reduced with proper adjustment of the
/ control.
See page 9 for the
The ability to see targets very close to the vessel is
decreased if the scanner is mounted too high off the
water, because the bottom of the vertical beam of the
scanner overshoots nearby targets.

■ Blind and Shadow sectors
Blind or Shadow sectors may exist because of
obstructions such as masts, derricks or other metal
objects. An obstruction may throw either a complete
or partial shadow as shown in the diagram below. If
a target is in a shadow sector, target echoes may not
appear on the screen.
When tall and massive targets such as a large island
are located at close range are also shadowed without
producing any echoes. This phenomenon is called
blind sector. It is very important to know the bearings
and widths of all shadow sectors caused by your own
vessel’s obstructions.

BASIC RADAR THEORY
■ Target resolution
Target resolution is determined by the horizontal
beam width and transmit pulse width. Sometimes it
is difcult to detect two targets that are separated by
short distances or are in the same direction.
D Distance resolution
When two targets are separated by more than the
pulse width, they appear as two echoes.
When two targets are not separated by more than
the pulse width, they appear as 1 echo.
D Direction resolution
When two targets are separated by more than the
horizontal beam width, they appear as two echoes.
When two targets are not separated by more than
the horizontal beam width, they appear as one
echo.
