You may automatically activate all targets within a specific distance from own ship as below. Note that you may also automatically activate all targets within the ARPA’s automatic acquisition zone or guard zone. When a target enters the ARPA’s automatic acquisition zone or guard zone, it is automatically marked with the activated target symbol. If the activated target goes out of the ARPA automatic acquisition zone of the guard zone it still is an activated target. When a target enters the guard zone, the display shows “GUARD” at the lower right hand corner of the display.
