Autopilot graph
1) Follow-up (FU) mode
When the autopilot is in the follow-up mode, the follow-up rudder command is
indicated on the RUDDER scale. In addition, "FOLLOW UP" is indicated at the
top of the screen. In follow-up mode, the autopilot controls the rudder so that actual
rudder angle becomes same as commanded one.
2) Autopilot (AP) mode
When the autopilot is in the "autopilot" mode and a ROT signal is available from
the autopilot, the autopilot graph shows ROT command. The actual ROT
command set on the autopilot is represented by a small circle on the ROT scale.
In addition, " AUTOPILOT" is indicated at the top of the screen. In "autopilot"
mode, the autopilot controls the ROT so that actual heading becomes same as
commanded one.
3) Neither FU nor AP mode
When the autopilot is in neither FU nor AP mode, the autopilot graph shows ROT
command as default.
4) No autopilot or on standby
There is no NMEA signal and also no indication.

1.35 SD Cards
The SD card (including SDHC card) stores the mark data etc.
1.35.1 About the SD cards
• Use SD cards carefully. Wrong use can damage the card and destroy its contents.
• Make sure the cover of the card drive is closed at all times.
• Remove a card with only your fingers. Do not use metal tools (like tweezers) to
remove the card.
• Do not remove a card during the reading of the card or writing to the card.
• If there is water at the bottom of the card cover, DO NOT open the cover. Remove
the water with a dry cloth completely and then open the cover.
• The SD cards with the SD or SDHC logo can be used (max. 32 GB). Some SD cards
may not work correctly depending on the card type or maker. The memory cards in
the table below have been tested and confirmed:
How to format an SD card
You need to format an SD card for use with your PC. If the card
becomes corrupted, format the card with a formatting program that is

How to set an SD card
The processor unit has two slots for SD cards. The [SD-1] is upper slot and [SD-2] is
lower.
1. Pull the tab on the card drive on the processor unit to open the card drive.
2. Put the SD card in the either card drive, [SD-1] or [SD-2], with the label upward. If
the card does not set easily, do not use force.
3. Push the card until the card is in position.
How to remove an SD card
To remove an SD card, select [SD-1] or [SD-2] from the [REMOVE EXTERNAL
MEDIA] menu. There are two methods to open [REMOVE EXTERNAL MEDIA] as
follows.
• [MAIN MENU]–[FILES]–[REMOVE EXTERNAL MEDIA]
• [MAIN MENU]–[CAPTURE]–[REMOVE EXTERNAL MEDIA]
1. On [FILES] or [CAPTURE] menu, select [REMOVE EXTERNAL MEDIA].
2. Select the SD card to remove, [SD-1] or [SD-2].
Note: Select the same card as the card selected on the [DRIVE SELECT] menu.
3. Pull the tab on the card drive cover to open the card drive.
4. Push the card to release the card from the card drive.
5. Remove the card with your fingers then close the cover.
Note: Always remove an SD card by this method to prevent non-recognition of the
card the next time when it is inserted. If a card is not recognized, insert the card again
and do the above operation.
1.35.2 How to save and replay the data
All SD card operations begin from the [FILES] menu.
The [FILES] menu is available in stand-by mode.

have the compatibility with other models. Do not let
the data read to the other models, and also do not let
other models read the data of the FR-1908V-BB. It
may cause the malfunction.
Note: All settings, except for [BRILL 1-1] and
[CUSTOM 1-1], are stored when the radar is turned off. If you want to keep all settings,
including [BRILL 1-1] and [CUSTOM 1-1], save the settings to an SD card before
turning off the radar. Then replay the saved settings after turning on the radar.
• [DRIVE SELECT]: Click the drive [SD-1] or [SD-2] to use. The [SD-1] is upper slot

How to display the TT list
The TT list provides the range, bearing, CPA and TCPA of all tracking targets.
To display the TT list, click the [LIST] icon for TT at the bottom left corner on the screen
to show the [TT LIST] window.

[RANGE], [BEARING]: Range and Bearing from own ship to the selected target with
suffix "T" (True) or "R" (Relative).
[CPA], [TCPA]: CPA (Closest Point of Approach) is the closest range a target will
approach to own ship. TCPA is the time to CPA. Both CPA and TCPA are
automatically calculated. A negative TCPA value means that you have already passed
the CPA and the target is going away from own ship.
How to display TT data
Click the target on [TT LIST] to show the [TT INFO] window. See section 2.8.
How to sort the TT list
You may sort the TT list by RANGE, CPA, TCPA as follows.

2.10 Vector Modes
Target vectors can be displayed relative to own ship's heading (Relative) or north
(True).
2.10.1 Description of vectors
Sea stabilization is a mode where own ship and all targets are referenced to the sea
using a compass heading and single-axis log water speed inputs. Ground stabilization
is a mode where own ship and all targets are referenced to the ground using the
ground track or set and drift inputs. If the accuracy seems unsatisfactory, enter set and
drift corrections.
True vector
Own ship and other ships move on the display at their true speeds and courses. This
mode is useful for distinguishing moving targets from stationary ones.
Relative vector
Other ships move relative to your ship. This mode is useful for finding ships on a
collision course with your ship. A ship whose vector passes through your ship's
position is on a collision course.
2.10.2 Vector mode and length
Vectors may be displayed in true or relative mode. Vector time (or the length of
vectors) can be set from 30 sec, 1 to 6 minutes.
1. Open [MAIN MENU], click [TT.AIS].
2. Click [VECTOR].
3. Click [VECTOR MODE].
4. Click the appropriate mode.
[VECTOR REL]: Relative mode
[VECTOR T-G], [VECTOR T-S]: True mode
5. Click [VECTOR TIME].
6. Select the time (30 sec to 6 min) with the setting knob.

2.11 Past Position Display
Equally time-spaced dots shows the past position display marking the past positions
of any targets being tracked.
A new dot is added every minute (or at other preset time intervals) until the preset
number is reached. If a target changes its speed, the spacing will be uneven. If it
changes the course, its plotted course will not be a straight line.
Past position orientation, true or relative, is controlled with [TRAIL MODE] in the
[TRAIL] menu. See section 1.25 for the procedure.
2.11.1 How to select the dot number and interval of the past position
You may select the number of past points to display per plotting interval as follows.
1. Open [MAIN MENU], click [TT.AIS].
2. Click [PAST POSN].
3. Click [INTERVAL].
4. Click the plot interval desired (0.5 min to 6 min). Click [OFF] to erase all past

3. AIS OPERATION
The AIS (Automatic Identification System) transponder connected to this radar
exchanges all data and information required by the SOLAS 1994 with other AIS-fitted
ships. AIS information is graphically indicated together with the radar and TT
information.
When AIS is active, manual or reference speed selection is not available.
AIS Function On/Off
You may disable or enable the AIS function from the AIS icon. Long press the AIS icon
with the left button to switch function between on and off.
3.1 AIS Display On/Off
To show or hide the AIS display, click the [AIS] icon at the bottom right corner on the
screen.
When the AIS is turned on, AIS targets are marked with appropriate AIS symbol as
shown in the table below.
Note: If the CPA/TCPA alarm is generated while the setting is [AIS OFF], the AIS
target is automatically displayed and the setting in the [AIS] box becomes [AIS ALL].
[AIS OFF]: All AIS symbols are hidden, but tracking continues internally.
[AIS FIL]: AIS targets are displayed according to the criteria set with
[CPA AUTO ACTIVE] in [AIS TARGET MENU].
See section 3.10 for details.
[AIS ALL]: All AIS targets received by the AIS transponder are displayed with
symbols.

Note 1: The equipment continues to process AIS targets when the AIS feature is
switched off. When the AIS is again turned on, symbols are immediately displayed.
Note 2: AIS symbols are momentarily erased after the screen is redrawn when the
orientation mode is changed from the head-up mode.
Note 3: When no AIS data is received, the message "AIS RECEIVE ERROR"
appears. Check the AIS transponder.
Note 4: An AIS target is declared as lost target if it is not detected in five consecutive
reporting periods.
3.2 AIS Display Filter
If there are too many AIS targets on the screen you may wish to remove unnecessary
ones. You may remove targets by distance from own ship, speed, class and length.
For example, you might want to remove slow moving targets, as they normally do not
require close monitoring.
