1.11Measuring the Bearing
The bearing to a target can be measured with the cursor and the EBL (Electronic Bearing Line).
Measuring bearing with the cursor
Operate the cursor pad to place the cursor on the center of the target. Read the bearing to the target at the bottom right corner.
Measuring bearing with the EBL
1.Press the [EBL] key to show the EBL. The message “Place EBL by cursor” appears and “EBL” in the EBL/VRM box is displayed in reverse video. The message is automatically erased after 10 seconds, or you may erase it sooner by pressing any key.
2.Operate the cursor pad to bisect the target with the EBL.
3.Check the EBL readout at the bottom left corner on the screen to find the bearing to the target.
To anchor the EBL, press the [EBL] key. (It is automatically anchored if there is no key operation for about 10 seconds.) To erase the EBL, press the [MENU/ESC] key.
1.12 Shifting the Display
Own ship position, or sweep origin, can be displaced manually or automatically to expand the view field without switching to a longer range. The default shift method is manual and the maximum shift is 60% of range.
If shift is activated when nav data is displayed, the nav data is automatically erased.
1.Use the cursor pad to place the cursor where you want to shift own ship position.
2.Press the [MODE] key to show the Display Mode menu.
