MARPA

MARPA automatically tracks selected radar targets, making it easier to avoid collisions. You can track up to 10 targets simultaneously. MARPA uses default or selected CPA (closest point of approach) and TCPA settings (Time to closest point of approach) to determine if a selected target is safe, dangerous or lost.

NOTE: To use Radar overlay or MARPA, an RC42 heading sensor and a valid GPS fix is required. Your display, radar system and RC42 heading sensor need to be connected to the NMEA2000 network.

Please refer to the HDS installation manual.

•Safe — not on an approaching path to your vessel

•Dangerous — on an approaching path to your vessel; when a target breaches the selected CPA or TCPA thresholds the target will be classified as dangerous

•Lost — selected target moves out of MARPA range

You can change CPA and TCPA values on the Dangerous vessels dialog.
