2.4.4 How to install the optional processor unit IPX2 kit
The optional processor unit IPX2 kit (OP03-238) has two rainproofing covers that pro-
tect the cables and connectors of the processor unit to waterproofing standard IPX2.
Note: The installation also uses the blind seal that is supplied with the processor unit
installation materials (CP03-36501).

2.6 VDR Connection
The processor unit has an RGB port for connection of a VDR. Use the optional RGB
cable (3COX-2P-6C 5m/10m) to connect the VDR.
About the RBG port
• The RGB port and DVI port have their own circuits. This prevents interruption of the
radar picture shown on the main monitor connected to the DVI port, if a fault condi-
tion occurs at the RGB port.
• The processor unit continuously outputs video signals from its DVI and RGB ports.
The operator cannot stop the output.

3. ADJUSTMENTS
Note: After completing the settings and adjustments, copy the setting data to a SD-
card (SD card slot is at the back of the processor unit), referring to section 1.51 in the
Operator's Manual. This will allow easy restoration of setting data after the SPU Board
is replaced, etc.
At the first power up after installation, open the protected menus to adjust the radar.
Follow the procedures in this chapter, in the order shown, to complete the adjustment.
Below are the controls on the control unit that are used to make the adjustments.
3.1 How to Open the Radar Installation Menu
The [RADAR INSTALLATION] menu has the items for adjustment of the radar. Do the
following to access the menu.
1. Open the cover of the power switch and press the switch to turn on the radar.

3.4 How to Align the Heading
You have mounted the antenna unit facing straight ahead in the direction of the bow.
Therefore, a small but conspicuous target dead ahead visually should appear on the
heading line (zero degrees). In practice, you will probably observe some small bearing
error on the display because of the difficulty in achieving accurate initial positioning of
the antenna unit. The following adjustment will compensate for this error.
1. Select a stationary target echo at a range between 0.125 and 0.25 NM, preferably
near the heading line.
2. Press the EBL key to turn on the EBL. Rotate the Setting knob to pass the EBL
through the center of the target echo.
3. Read the target bearing.
4. Measure the bearing of the stationary target on the navigation chart and calculate
the difference between the actual bearing and apparent bearing on the radar
screen.
5. Open the [RADAR INSTALLATION] menu, then open the [ECHO ADJUST] menu.
6. Select [HD ALIGN], then enter the bearing difference measured at step 4. The set-
ting range is 0 to 359.9 degrees.
7. Confirm that the target echo is displayed at the correct bearing on the screen.

3.5 How to Adjust Sweep Timing
Sweep timing differs with respect to the length of the signal cable between the antenna
unit and the processor unit. Adjust sweep timing at installation to prevent the following
symptoms:
• The echo of a "straight" target (for example, pier), on the 0.25 NM range, will appear
on the display as being pulled inward or pushed outward. See the figures below.
• The range of target echoes is incorrect.
1. Set the GAIN, A/C SEA and A/C RAIN controls as shown below.
GAIN: 80
A/C SEA: Fully counterclockwise (OFF)
A/C RAIN: Fully counterclockwise (OFF)
2. Open the [RADAR INSTALLATION] menu, then open the [ECHO ADJUST] menu.
3. Set [TIMING ADJ] to [AUTO] to activate the automatic adjustment, which takes
approx. two minutes.
4. After the adjustment is completed, set the radar to the minimum range. Confirm
that no echoes are "missing" at the center of the radar screen.
If echoes are missing, set [TIMING ADJ] to [MAN]. Select [TIMING ADJ VALUE],
then use the Setting knob to adjust the timing manually.
3.6 How to Suppress Main Bang
If main bang appears (a red ring at the screen center), suppress it as follows.
1. Transmit the radar on a long range and then wait 10 minutes.
2. Adjust the gain to show a slight amount of noise on the display.
3. Select the 0.125 NM range, then adjust the A/C SEA and A/C RAIN controls.
4. Go to the [RADAR INSTALLATION] menu, then open the [ECHO ADJUST] menu.
5. Select [MBS LEVEL], then use the Setting knob to enter a value that causes the
main bang to faintly disappear. The setting range is 0 to 255.

Cables listed in the manual are usually shown as Japanese Industrial Standard (JIS). Use the following guide to locate
an equivalent cable locally.
JIS cable names may have up to 6 alphabetical characters, followed by a dash and a numerical value (example:
DPYC-2.5).
For core types D and T, the numerical designation indicates the cross-sectional Area (mm2) of the core wire(s) in the
cable.
For core types M and TT, the numerical designation indicates the number of core wires in the cable.
