Vessel alarm settings
You can define several Vessels alarms to alert you if a target comes within predefined range limits, or if a previously identified target is lost.

Dangerous vessel | Controls whether an alarm shall be activated when a vessel |
| comes within the predefined CPA or TCPA. See Defining |
| dangerous vessels above. |

| box is displayed and if the siren will sound. The CPA and |
| TCPA defines when a vessel is dangerous regardless of the |
| enabled/disabled state. |

| target is lost |

Radar overlay
You can overlay the Radar image on the Chart. This can help you to easily interpret the radar image by correlating the radar targets with charted objects. When the radar overlay is selected, basic radar operational functions are available from the Chart page menu.
¼¼ Note: You must have a heading sensor connected to your system to use Radar overlay.
