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

The picture is oriented so the heading marker is at the top of the display. This mode is use- ful for navigation in congested waters.

Course up

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