Setting the Safe-zone Collision Alarm

The safe-zone collision alarm is used only with AIS and MARPA. MARPA functionality works with radar (page 77). The safe zone is used for collision avoidance, and can be customized. All safe-zone collision alarm settings are applied to all charts, to all 3D chart views, to all radar modes, and to the Radar Overlay.

A message banner appears and an alarm sounds when a MARPA-tagged object or an AIS- activated vessel enters the safe-zone ring around your boat. The object is also labeled as dangerous on the screen. The Off setting disables the message banner and the audible alarm, but the object is still labeled as dangerous on the screen.

2.Select Range to set the measured radius of the safe-zone ring to a specified distance from 500 ft. to 2.0 nm (or from 150 m to 3.0 km, or from 500 ft. to 2.0 mi.).

3.Select a distance.
