How to Restart or Cancel Navigation to a Point
4.12.1
How to restart navigation to a point
When you go to a point, you can restart
the navigation to the point from the current location.
When you steer to keep away from an
obstruction or the ship drifts, you go off
course as shown in Line 1 in the figure.
If you do not need to return to the original course, you can go to the point from
the current position as shown in Line 2 in
the figure.

ROUTES
5.1
What is a Route?
A route is a series of route points entered in the order to use for navigation. A route
can contain up to a maximum of 500 route points, and this equipment stores 200
routes.
Note: When connecting NavNet 3D units on the LAN network, a route can contain up
to a maximum of 100 route points.
You create a route by selecting geographical positions on the screen. These positions
are marked with blue squares.
You can follow a route that you have created, with the [Go To] feature. When you follow a route, the current leg is shown as a red dashed line and the previous leg is
shown as a light gray line.
The routes on the screen can be edited from the pop-up menu. With this pop-up menu,
you can
• Insert route points in a route
• Move route points in a route
• Delete route points from a route
• Extend a route
• Split routes
• Find information about a route
• Delete a route
• Set a route as destination
• Follow a route in the reverse direction
• Ignore a route point when following a route
Note: Active routes can be shared with other NavNet TZtouch2 units via LAN. Data is
shared automatically; no operation is required.

How to Adjust the Gain
You can adjust the gain (sensitivity) of the radar receiver. The correct setting shows
some background noise on the screen. If you do not use enough gain, weak echoes
are erased. If you use more gain than necessary, the background noise hides both
weak and strong targets.
The gain can be adjusted from the data area or the pop-up menu.
Method 1: Pop-up menu
Tap the screen to show the pop-up menu then tap [Radar Adjust]. Turn [Auto Gain] on

How to Reduce the Sea Clutter
The reflected echoes from waves appear at the central part
of the screen and have the name “sea clutter”. The sea clutter
increases in width as the height of waves and the height of
the antenna above the water increase. If the sea clutter is
strong, targets can be hidden inside the clutter, like in the lefthand figure shown below.
When the sea clutter hides targets, adjust the sea control
(automatically or manually) to reduce the clutter. After the
sea clutter is gone, turn off the sea control to prevent the loss
of targets. Like with gain, sea clutter can be adjusted from the
pop-up menu or data area. See the procedures in section
6.3.
Sea clutter at
screen center
For automatic sea clutter suppression, there are two methSea control adjusted;
ods: [Advanced] and [Coastal]. [Advanced] provides for stan- sea clutter suppressed
dard suppression of sea clutter and is intended for normal
use. [Coastal] suppresses sea clutter further than does [Advanced] and paints land
and target echoes thicker. Use [Coastal] when you are cruising along a coastline. To
select an automatic sea clutter suppression method, open the pop-up menu, tap [Auto
Sea Mode] then turn on [Advanced] or [Coastal].
