This radar provides four presentation modes: head-up, course-up, north-up and true motion.

1.Press the [MENU] key.

2.Operate the omnipad to select “MODE”.

3.Press the [ACQ/ENTER] key.

With heading sensor connection the display and the display mode indication at the top left- hand corner of the display change in the se- quence of HU (heading up), CU (course up), NU (north up) and TM (true motion) when the [ACQ/ENTER] key is pressed. If there is no heading sensor connection, the display mode is always HU.

4. Press the [MENU] key to close the menu.

Note: The radar begins operation with last se- lected display mode (except course up) when- ever the unit is turned on. Note however that head up is selected when course up was the last used mode.

Head up

The picture is oriented so the heading line is at the top of the display. This mode is useful for navigation in congested waters.

Course up

The course up mode shows ship’s heading by the heading line, at the top of the display. To get heading desired, steer vessel in direction desired, and then show “CU” at the top left- hand corner of the display.

North up

North is at the top of the display and the head- ing line moves with ship’s heading. This mode is useful for determining ship’s position and as a navigation monitor on a nautical chart. The picture is stabilized against yaw of ves- sel, thereby reducing of target echoes.
