You do not face any danger during normal operation, but sufficient cares are required for maintenance, inspection and adjustment of their internal components. (Maintenance, check-up and adjustment of the inside of the equipment are prohibited except by maintenance specialists.) High voltages of tens of thousands volts are so dangerous as to bring an instantaneous death from electric shock, but even voltages of hundred volts may sometimes lead to a death from electric shock. To prevent such an accident, make it a rule to turn off the power switch, discharge capacitors with a wire surely earthed on an end make sure that internal parts are no longer charged before you touch any parts inside these devices. At the time, wearing dry cotton gloves ensures you further to prevent such danger. It is also a necessary caution to put one of your hands in the pocket and not to use your both hands at the same time. It is also important to select a stable foothold always to prevent additional injuries once you were shocked by electricity. If you were injured from electric shock, disinfect the burn sufficiently and get it taken care of promptly. ■ What to do in case of electric shock When finding a victim of electric shock, turn off the power source and earth the circuit immediately. If it is impossible to turn off the circuit, move the victim away promptly using insulators such as dry wood plate and cloth without touching the victim directly. In case of electric shock, breathing may stop suddenly if current flows to the respiration center in the brain. If the shock is not so strong, artificial respiration may recover breathing. When shocked by electricity, the victim will come to look very bad with weak pulse or without beating, resulting in unconsciousness and rigidity. In this case, it is necessary to perform an emergency measure immediately. ◆◆◆ FIRST-AID TREATMENTS ◆◆◆ ☆ First-aid treatments As far as the victim of electric shock is not in dangerous condition, do not move him and practice artificial respiration on him immediately. Once started, it should be continued rhythmically. (1) Do not touch the victim confusedly as a result of the accident, but the rescuer may also get an electric shock. (2) Turn off the power source calmly and move the victim away quietly from the electric line. (3) Call a physician or ambulance immediately or ask someone to call a doctor. (4) Lay the victim on this back and loosen his necktie, clothes, belt, etc. (5) a. Examine the victim's pulse. b. Examine his heartbeat bringing your ear close to his heart. c. Examine his breathing bringing the back of your hand or your face close to his face. d. Check the size of the pupils of his eyes. (6) Open the victim's mouth and take out artificial teeth, cigarette or chewing gum if any. Keep his mouth open, stretch his tongue and insert a towel or the like in his mouth to prevent the tongue from suffocating. (If it is hard to open his mouth due to set teeth, open it with a screwdriver and insert a towel in this mouth.) (7) Then, wipe his mouth so that foaming mucus does not accumulate inside. ii ☆ When pulse is beating but breathing has stopped (Mouth-to-mouth respiration) Fig 1. (1) Tilt the victim's head back as far as this face looks back. (A pillow may be inserted his neck.) (2) Push his jaw upward to open his throat wide (to spread his airway). (3) Pinch the victim's nostrils and take a deep breath, block his mouth completely with yours and blow into his mouth strongly. Take a deep breath again and blow into his mouth. Continue this 10 to 15 times a minutes (blocking his nostrils). (4) Carefully watch that he has recovered his natural breathing and atop practicing artificial respiration. (5) If it is difficult to open the victim's mouth, insert a rubber or vinyl tube into one of his nostrils and blow into it blocking the other nostril and his mouth completely. (6) When the victim recovers consciousness, he may try to stand up suddenly, but let him lie calmly and serve him with a cup of hot coffee or tea and keep him warm and quiet. (Never give him alcoholic drinks.) Method of mouth-to-mouth respiration by raising hea (1)Raise the victim's head. Support his forehead with one of your hand and his neck with the other hand. 1 When you tilt his head backward, the victim, in most cases, opens his mouth to the air. This makes mouthto mouth respiration easy. (2)Cover his mouth as widely as possible with yours and press your cheek against his nose 2 or, pinch his nostrils with your fingers to prevent air from leaking. 3 (3)Blow into his lungs. Continue blowing into his mouth until his breast swells. Blow into his mouth as quickly as possible for the first 10 times. Fig 1. Mouth-to mouth respiration iii ☆ When both pulse and breathing have stopped Perform the (Cardiac massage) Fig 2. and (Mouth-to-mouth respiration) Fig 1. When no pulse has come not to be felt, his pupils are open and no heartbeat is heard, cardiac arrest is supposed to have occurred and artificial respiration must be performed. (1) Place your both hands, one hand on the other, on the lower one third area of his breastbone and compress his breast with your elbows applying your weight on his breast so that it is dented about 2cm (Repeat compressing his breast 50 times or so a minutes). (Cardiac massage) (2) In case of one rescuer, Repeat cardiac massages about 15 times and blow into his mouth 2 times quickly, and repeat this combination. In case of two rescuers, One person repeats cardiac massages 15 times while the other person blow into his mouth twice, and they shall repeat this combination. (Perform the cardiac massage and mouth-to-mouth respiration) (3) Examine his pupils and his pulse sometimes. When the both have returned to normal, stop the artificial respiration, serve him with a cup of hot coffee or tea and keep him warm and calm while watching him carefully. Commit the victim to a medical specialist depending on his condition. (Never give him alcoholic drinks.) To let him recover from the mental shock, it is necessary for persons concerned to understand his situations and the necessary treatment. Fig 2.

Inspection or repair work by uncertified personnel may result in fire hazard or electrocution. For inspection and repair work of equipment components, consult with our branch office, branch shop, sales office, or our distributor in your district. When conducting maintenance, make sure to turn the main power off.Failure to comply may result in electrocution. Turn off the main power before cleaning the equipment. Especially when a rectifier is used, make sure to turn it off since voltage is still outputted from the rectifier even after the indicator and the radar are turned off. Failure to comply may result in equipment failure, or death or serious injury due to electric shock. When conducting maintenance work on the scanner, make sure to turn its main power off.Failure to comply may result in electrocution or injuries. vii ! Make sure to turn off the scanner safety switch. Failure to comply may result in injuries caused by physical contact with the rotating scanner. Never directly touch the internal components of the scanner or indicator. Direct contact with these highvoltage components may cause electrocution. For maintenance, inspection, or adjustment of equipment components, consult with our branch office, branch shop, sales office, or our distributor in your district. To contact our sales department, branch offices, branch shops, and sales offices: Please refer to the "Office List" at the end of the document. Do not get close to the radiant section of the scanner. It is a rotating part, and it may cause injuries if it suddenly starts rotating and consequently hits the body. It is recommended that the radiant section be installed at a high place such as on the roof of the wheelhouse, on the flying bridge, on the trestle, or on the radar mast so that no one can get close to it. When any work must be done on the scanner, make sure to turn the safety switch off. viii Microwave radiation level: Keep out from a distance closer than that specified below for each type of scanner when it is transmitting. Being within the specified distance from the center of the front face of the scanner may cause microwave exposure which could result in injuries (especially of the eyes). NKE-2103 (radiation levels: 10 W/m2): 0.6 m NKE-2254 (radiation levels: 10 W/m2): 0.6 m NKE-1125/1129 (radiation levels: 10 W/m2): 0.7m NKE-1130/1139 (radiation levels: 10 W/m2): 1.1 cm Make sure to install the scanner at a place higher than human height. Direct exposure to electromagnetic waves at close range will have adverse effects on the human body. When it is necessary to get close to the scanner for maintenance or inspection purposes, make sure to turn the indicator power switch to "OFF" or "STBY." Direct exposure to electromagnetic waves at close range will have adverse effects on the human body. Direct exposure to electromagnetic waves at close range will have adverse effects on the human body. When conducting maintenance work, make sure to turn off the power so that the power supply to the equipment is completely cut off. Some equipment components can carry electrical current even after the power switch is turned off, and conducting maintenance work without unplugging the power connector may result in electrocution, equipment failure, or accidents. ix When cleaning the display screen, do not wipe it too strongly with a dry cloth. Also, do not use gasoline or thinner to clean the screen. Failure to comply will result in damage to the screen surface. Do not change MBS Level/Area unless absolutely necessary. When disposing of used lithium batteries, be sure to insulate the batteries by attaching a piece of adhesive tape on the + and - terminals. Failure to comply may cause heat generation, explosion, or fire when the batteries get shorted out. Use the radar only as a navigation aid. The final navigation decision must always be made by the operator him/herself. Making the final navigation decision based only on the radar display may cause accidents such as collisions or running aground. Incorrect adjustment will result in deletion of nearby target images and thus collisions may occur resulting in death or serious injuries. ! Use Target Tracking (TT) function only as a navigation aid. The final navigation decision must always be made by the operator him/herself. Making the final navigation decision based only on tracking target information may cause accidents. Tracking target information such as vector, target numerical data, and alarms may contain some errors. Also, targets that are not detected by the radar cannot be acquired or tracked. Making the final navigation decision based only on the radar display may cause accidents such as collisions or running aground. A malfunction may occur if the power in the ship is instantaneously interrupted during operation of the radar. In this case, the power should be turned on again. When using the [AUTO SEA] function, never set the suppression level too high canceling out all image noises from the sea surface at close range. Detection of not only echoes from waves but also targets such as other ships or dangerous objects will become inhibited. When using the [AUTO SEA] function, make sure to choose the most appropriate image noise suppression level. When using the [AUTO RAIN] function, never set the suppression level too high canceling out all image noises from the rain or snow at close range. Detection of not only echoes from the rain or snow but also targets such as other ships or dangerous objects will become inhibited. When using the [AUTO RAIN] function, make sure to choose the most appropriate image noise suppression level. xi ! When setting a guard zone, make sure to properly adjust gain, sea-surface reflection suppression level, and rain/ snow reflection suppression level so that the optimal target images are always on the radar screen. The guard zone alarm will not be activated for targets undetected by the radar, and it may result in accidents such as collisions. The simulation function is used exclusively for deciding whether or not target tracking is properly operating. Therefore, never use this function unless you wish to check target tracking operations. Note especially that, if this function is used during actual navigation, simulated targets are displayed and may become confused with other actual targets. Therefore, never use this function during actual navigation. Optimal values have been set for VD LEVEL and CONSTANT; therefore, never change their values unless absolutely necessary. Failure to comply may result in accidents that would lower target tracking performance. Make sure to shut off the main power before replacing parts. Failure to comply may result in electrocution or equipment failure. When replacing magnetrons, make sure to shut off the main power and let the equipment stand for more than 5 minutes to discharge the high-voltage circuit. Failure to comply may result in electrocution. xii ! Make sure to take off your watch when your hand must get close to the magnetron. Make sure that two or more staff member work together when replacing the LCD. If only one person attempts to replace the LCD, he/she may drop it and become injured. Failure to comply may result in damage to the watch since the magnetron is a strong magnet. Do not directly touch the inverter circuit of the LCD display with a bare hand since high voltage temporarily remains in the circuit even after the main power is shut off. Failure to comply may result in electrocution. Any adjustments must be made by specialized service personnel. Incorrect settings may result in unstable operation. Do not make any adjustments during navigation. Failure to comply may result in adverse effects on the radar function which may lead to accidents or equipment failure. Any adjustments must be made by specialized service personnel. Failure to comply may result in accidents or equipment failure. Do not make any adjustments during navigation. Failure to comply may result in adverse effects on the radar function which may lead to accidents or equipment failure. xiii Do not change the quantization level settings unless absolutely necessary. If set at an inappropriate value, the target acquisition or target tracking function deteriorates, and this may lead to accidents. xiv The Mounting Point of the Warning Label Warning Label NCD-4990 Display Unit Warning Label Front face Back face NWZ-170 Monitor Unit xv Warning Label NDC-1399-9 Radar Process Unit (Desktop Type) Warning Label NBA-5135 AC/DC Converter (Desktop Type) xvi Warning Label NQE-3141-4A/8A Interswitch Unit Warning Label NQE-3167 Power Control Unit xvii Warning La NKE-2103-6/6HS Scanner Unit Warning NKE-1129-7/9 Scanner Unit NKE-1125-6/9 Scanner Unit NKE-2254-6HS Scanner Unit xviii Warning Label NKE-1139/1130 Scanner Unit Warning Label NTG-3230/3225 Transmitter Receiver Unit xix EQUIPMENT APPEARANCE Scanner Unit Type NKE-1130 (12 feet) Scanner Unit Type NKE-1139 (12 feet) Transmitter Receiver Unit Type NTG-3230(30kW) xx Scanner Unit Type NKE-1129-7 (7 feet) Scanner Unit Type NKE-1129-9 (9 feet) Transmitter Receiver Unit Type NTG-3225(25kW) xxi Scanner Unit Type NKE-1125-6 (6 feet) Scanner Unit Type NKE-1125-9 (9 feet) Scanner Unit Type NKE-2254-6HS (6 feet) xxii Scanner Unit Type NKE-2103-6 (6 feet) Scanner Unit Type NKE-2103-6HS (6 feet) Power Control Unit Type NQE-3167 xxiii Display Unit Type NCD-4990 (Stand alone type) Interswitch Unit Type NQE-3141-4A xxiv Monitor Unit Type NWZ-170 (Desktop type) Operation Unit Type NCE-5163 (Desktop type) Radar Process Unit Type NDC-1399-9 (Desktop type) DISPLAY UNIT TYPE NCD-4990T (DESKTOP TYPE) xxv GLOSSARY This section describes the main terms used for this equipment and general related maritime terms.

This equipment complies with the performance standard of IMO. 1.1.1 Function of This System The JMA-9100 series is a color radar system designed to comply with the international standards of the IMO.The main functions include: • • • • • • • • • • • sensitivity adjustment sea clutter and rain/snow clutter suppression interference rejection bearing and range measurement using a cursor, fixed/variable range markers, and electronic bearing line colored own track display(7 colors) NAV line and marker displays TM (True Motion) presentation self-diagnostic facilities radar performance monitoring (Performance Monitor) Target Tracking functions (manual/automatic, target acquisition and tracking, vector and trail displays, Trial maneuver and alarm displays) 8-unit switchover (Interswitch) function (option) 1- 1 JMA-9100 Instruction Manual > 1.GENERAL AND EQUIPMENT COMPOSITION > 1.2 FEATURES 1.2 FEATURES Realization of Large, Easy-to-see Screen with High Resolution The 23.1-inch color LCD with high resolution of 1600x1200 pixels can display radar images of 320 mm or more in diameter. Even short-range targets can also be displayed as high-resolution images. Target Detection by Latest Signal Processing Technology The system employs the latest digital signal processing technology to eliminate undesired clutter from the radar video signals that are obtained from the receiver with a wide dynamic range, thus improving the target detection. Target Tracking (TT) Function based on Advanced Technology The target acquisition and tracking performance is enhanced by the use of the fastest DSP and tracking algorithm. So stable operation in target tracking under clutter is ensured. • Acquisition and tracking of 100 targets. • Hazardous conditions are represented by shapes and colors of symbols as well as sounds. • Trial maneuvering functions provided. • Tracks of up to 20 target ships can be stored with a maximum of 1,500 points for each of them, and displayed distinguished by using seven different colors. Overlay of Radar Images, Coastlines, and Own Ship's Track As well as operator-created NAV lines and own ship's tracks/ARPA tracks, which is stored on the memory card can be superimpose-displayed with radar images and radar trails in all display modes including the head-up mode. Easy Operation with GUI All the radar functions can be easily controlled by simply using the trackball and two switches to operate the buttons shown on the radar display. 1- 2 JMA-9100 Instruction Manual > 1.GENERAL AND EQUIPMENT COMPOSITION > 1.2 FEATURES Improved Day/Night Mode Five types of background colors are available in Day/Dusk/Night mode (total 5 background colors). Each background color can be reproduced to be suited for the user's operating environment by simple key operation. The radar echoes and a variety of graphics can also be represented in different colors, ensuring easy-tosee displays. Compact Design and Low Power Consumption Since an LCD has been implemented as the display device, the weight of the display is greatly reduced and the power consumption is lowered in comparison with the conventional radar equipment. Self-diagnostic Program Incorporated The Self-diagnostic program always monitors all the functions of the system. If any function deteriorates, an alarm message will appear on the radar display and an alarm sounds at the same time. Even when the system is operating, the functionality test can be carried out. (except on some functions) Performance Monitor The radar performance (transmitted output power and receiving sensitivity) can appear on the radar display. Easy Interswitch Operation (Option) If an interswitch unit (option) is connected, up to eight JMA-9100 radars can be switched over by performing simple operation. Up to 2 radars: NQA-3141-2A is needed in Display Unit. Up to 4 radars: NQA-3141-4A is needed separately. Up to 8 radars: NQA-3141-8A is needed separately.

On the contrary, if the gain is too low, targets including ships and dangerous objects may not be clearly indicated. Be sure to always adjust for the best gain. See also the Section 3.2.8 "To get the appropriate image that targets can be easily observed". Procedures 1) Adjust noise on the radar display by turning the [GAIN] dial until targets can be easily observed. Turning [GAIN] dial clockwise increases gain. Turning [GAIN] dial counterclockwise decreases gain. Turning the [GAIN] dial clockwise will increase the receiving gain, and the range to observe radar video is widened. However, if the gain is too high, unnecessary signals including receiver noise and false images increase resulting in reduction of targets' visibility. To observe densely crowded targets or short-range targets, turning the [GAIN] dial counterclockwise will decrease the receiving gain, which enables targets to be easily observed. However, caution must be taken so as not to overlook a small and important target. It is recommended to restore the setting to the factory default, if you lost the appropriate settings.The factory default level is shown on the bar chart as a green line. The factory defafult level is assigned by every function mode. See the Section 3.9 "USE FUNCTION KEY [USER]" 3- 8 Current Level Factory Default JMA-9100 Instruction Manual 3.2.5 3.BASIC OPERATION 3.2 OBSERVE AND ADJUST VIDEO Suppress Sea Clutter [SEA] When using the [AUTO SEA] function, never set the suppression level too high canceling out all image noises from the sea surface at close range. Detection of not only echoes from waves but also targets such as other ships or dangerous objects will become inhibited. When using the [AUTO SEA] function, make sure to choose the most appropriate image noise suppression level. See also the Section 3.2.8 "To get the appropriate image that targets can be easily observed". 3.2.5.1 Using the manual sea clutter suppression mode Procedures 1) Adjust the sea clutter returns on the radar display by turning the [SEA] dial until targets can be easily observed. Turning [SEA] dial clockwise suppresses sea clutter returns. Turning [SEA] dial counterclockwise intensifies sea clutter returns. The sea clutter suppression function suppresses sea clutter returns by decreasing the receiving gain on a short range. Turning the [SEA] dial clockwise heightens the effect of sea clutter suppression. However, be careful that excessive suppression causes low signal-strength targets such as buoys and boats to disappear from the radar display. 3- 9 JMA-9100 Instruction Manual 3.BASIC OPERATION 3.2 OBSERVE AND ADJUST VIDEO It is recommended to restore the setting to the factory default, if you lost the appropriate settings.The factory default level is shown on the bar chart as a green line.

Detection of not only echoes from the rain or snow but also targets such as other ships or dangerous objects will become inhibited. When using the [AUTO RAIN] function, make sure to choose the most appropriate image noise suppression level. See also the Section 3.2.8 "To get the appropriate image that targets can be easily observed". 3.2.6.1 Using the manual rain / snow clutter suppression mode Procedures 1) Adjust the rain / snow clutter returns of the display by turning the [AUTO-RAIN] dial until targets can be easily observed. Turning [RAIN] dial clockwise suppresses rain / snow clutter returns. Turning [RAIN] dial counterclockwise intensifies rain / snow clutter returns. When the [RAIN] dial is turned clockwise, the rain / snow clutter suppression function suppresses rain / snow clutter returns and gets targets hidden by rain / snow clutter returns to appear of the display. However, be careful that excessive suppression may cause small targets to be overlooked. Since the rain / snow clutter suppression function also has the effect of suppressing sea clutter, the suppression efficiency improves when the [RAIN] dial is used with the [SEA] dial. In general, turn the [RAIN] dial fully to the left. It is recommended to restore the setting to the factory default, if you lost the appropriate settings.The factory default level is shown on the bar chart as a green line.

(Importance is attached to resolution.) : Use this mode to monitor a relatively long range, for example, the open sea. (Importance is attached to long-range gain.) : Use this mode to detect small targets such as fishnets of round haul netters hidden by sea clutter returns. (Importance is attached to sea clutter suppression, and gain to moving targets lowers.) : Use this mode when many rain / snow clutter returns or sea clutter returns are detected in stormy weather. (Importance is attached to rain / snow clutter and sea clutter suppression, and gain slightly lowers.) : Use this mode when only a few rain / snow clutter returns or sea clutter returns are detected. : Use this mode when sea clutter is not strong but rain / snow clutter is strong. (Importance is attached to rain / snow clutter suppression, and gain slightly lowers.) : Use this mode to detect flocks of sea birds. : Use this mode to monitor utmost distances in the broad ocean. : Use this mode to detect small targets like radio buoys in areas outside the sea clutter area.

Thus, use the automatic clutter suppression mode together with the video process mode. • Characteristics of the automatic clutter suppression function: Off AUTO Sea : Disables the automatic clutter suppression function. Select off when rain / snow clutter and sea clutter are not strong or when the ship is in a bay. : Automatically detects the strength of sea clutter, and performs the most suitable sea clutter suppression processing. Even when the strength of sea clutter varies depending on the wind direction, AUTO Sea performs the most suitable suppression processing. Land like islands can be displayed naturally. AUTO Sea/Rain Since rain clouds outside sea clutter areas are recognized as land, there is no effect of suppressing rain / snow clutter. : Along with AUTO Sea, AUTO Rain automatically detects the strength of rain / snow clutter, and performs the most suitable rain / snow clutter suppression processing. When rain clouds are scattered about, AUTO Rain performs rain / snow clutter suppression processing for only the rain-cloud areas. Since land is recognized as rain clouds, land videos become obscure. 3- 114 JMA-9100 Instruction Manual 3.BASIC OPERATION 3.9 USE FUNCTION KEY [USER] page 2-[1]~[7] PL (Pulse Length) • Sets the standard transmitter pulse length in each range. • When the range is called, the pulse range is used. page 3-[1]~[7] Video setting menu (Process Setting) • Operation is the same as that of the Process Setting menu described in Section 3.8.1 "Set Radar Signal Processing (Process Setting)". page 4-[1]~[7] Radar trails settings (Trails Setting) • Same functions as in the Trails Setting of the RADAR Menu described in Section 3.8.2 "Set Radar Trails (RADAR Trails Setting)". page 5-[1] Gain Offset • Corrects gain while the function mode is called. • Since the displayed noise level varies depending on the combination of the video process mode and the interference rejection level, gain needs fine adjustment for always obtaining the highest level. • The gain correction function saves the correction value set by the gain adjust in each function mode, so it can obtain the highest gain without the gain adjust being operated when the function mode is changed. • To set high gain, set a value on the “+”side. • To set low gain, set a value on the “-”side. • When the radar interference rejection level is increased, the noise level is lowered. Thus, set a gain correction value to the “+”side. • When the video process mode 3Scan CORREL , 4Scan CORREL , or 5Scan CORREL is used, the noise level is lowered. Thus, set a gain correction value to the “+”side. Remain Peak Hold • When the video process mode or is used, noise is hard to disappear.

[I] Resolution between adjacent targets and swapping during automatic target tracking Depending on the particular distance and echo size, resolution between adjacent targets during automatic target tracking usually ranges somewhere between 0.03 to 0.05 NM. If multiple targets approach each other, resolution will become about 0.05 NM and this may cause the system to regard them as one target and thus to swap them or lose part of them. Such swapping or less of targets may also occur if the picture of the target being tracked is affected by rain/snow clutter returns or sea clutter returns or moves very close to land. [II] Intensity of echoes and the target tracking function The intensity of echoes and the tracking function have a correlationship, and thus the target will be lost if no echoes are detected during six scans in succession. If a lost target exists, therefore, radar gain must be increased to support detection of the target. If, however, radar gain is increased too significantly, sea clutter returns or other noise may be erroneously detected and tracked as a target, and resultingly, a false alarm may be issued. [III]Adverse effects of error sources on automatic tracking To execute accurate tracking, it becomes necessary first to appropriately adjust the [GAIN], [SEA] and [RAIN] dials of the radar so that the target to be acquired and tracked id clearly displayed on the radar display. Inappropriate settings of these adjustments reduce the reliability / accuracy of automatic tracking. This section explains the features of the target tracking and AIS functions, and the initial setting for using each function. Target Tracking Function The target tracking function calculates the course and speed of a target by automatically tracking the target's move. The target tracking function enables the automatic acquisition of targets by using the automatic acquisition zone function. The target tracking function also enables the simulation of the ship maneuvering method to avoid collisions by using the trial maneuver function. 5- 1 JMA-9100 Instruction Manual 5.OPERATION OF TARGET TRACKING AND AIS 5.1 PREPARATION If the mode is ground stabilization, SOG/COG used for own ship's information in target tracking. If the mode is sea stabilization, SPD (speed through the water) / HDG (heading) used for own ship's information in target tracking. AIS (Automatic Identification System) function The AIS function shows the target’s information on the radar display, using other ship's information sent out from the AIS unit. 5.1.1 Collision Avoidance 5.1.1.1 Problems of Collision Avoidance in Navigation Marine collision avoidance is one of the problems that have been recognized from of old. Now, it will be described briefly who the collision avoidance is positioned among the navigational aid problems. The navigation pattern of all mobile craft constitutes a system with some closed loops regardless of the media through which the mobile craft travels, whether air, water, the boundary between air and water, or space. This pattern consists of two closed loops in principle, one of which is a collision with another mobile craft and the other is a loop of finding a right and safe way to reach a predeterminate destination. Fig. 5-1 shows the conceptual diagram of navigation pattern by MR. E.W. Anderson. The closed loop of collision avoidance is shown on the left side and the closed loop of finding a right course on the right side.

If a tanker carrying dangerous articles such as crude oil collides with any other vessel, then not only the vessels involved with the accident but other vessels in the vicinity, port facilities, inhabitants in the coastal area as well as marine resources may also suffer immeasurable damages and troubles. Collision accidents have a high percentage of the marine accidents that have occurred in recent years. To cope with these problems, any effective measures are needed and some equipment to achieve collision avoidance requirements have been developed at rapid strides. 5.1.1.3 Basic Concept of Collision Avoidance There are two aspects in collision avoidance: collision prediction and avoidance. Collision prediction is to predict that two or more vessels will happen to occupy the same point at the same time, while collision avoidance is to maneuver vessels not to occupy the same point at the same time. In practical operation of vessels, a spot of collision has to be deemed to be a single point but a closed zone. This closed zone is conceptually defined as a CPA (Closest Point of Approach). In collision prediction, the time to be taken until a ship reaches the CPA is defined as a TCPA (Time to CPA). Fig. 5-2 shows a diagram caked "Collision Triangle". CPA TCPA(Time to CPA) Target vessel Collision triangle Relative vector Own ship CPA ring Fig 5-2: Collision Triangle 5- 3 JMA-9100 Instruction Manual 5.1.1.4 5.OPERATION OF TARGET TRACKING AND AIS 5.1 PREPARATION Relative Vector and True Vector From two points of view, collision prediction and avoidance, it is necessary to obtain the relative vector of other ship for prediction and the true vector of other ship for collision avoidance in order to grasp other ship’s aspect. The relationship between the relative vector and true vector is shown in Fig. 5-3. Both rough CPA and TCPA can be obtained easily from the relative speed vector of other ship. This method has an advantage that the risks of collision with all other ships within the radar range can be seen at a glance. On the other hand, the course and speed of other ship can easily be obtained from its true speed vector, enabling other ship’s aspect to be seen at a glance. Thus, the aspects of other ships (transverse, outsail, parallel run, reverse run, etc. ) as described in the act of prevention of collision at sea can be readily grasped. If there is a risk of collision with other ship, the operator can determine which rule to be applied and how to operate own ship. Target ship true vector VO: Own ship's speed θ O: Own ship's course VT : Other ship's true speed θ T : Target ship's true course VR : Target ship's relative speed θ R : Target ship's relative course θ A: Aspect VT θT θO θA θR Vo VR Relative vector Own ship true vector CPA Fig 5-3: Relative Vector and True vector 5.1.1.5 Radar and Collision Avoidance Radar is still playing an important roll for collision prevention and positioning. A plotter is used to further enhance the radar functionality. The plotter is capable of plotting other positions of other ships in 3 to 6 minute intervals to monitor their movement. The plots of other ships represent their tracks relative to own ship, and it is shown whether there is a risk of collision, namely CPA and TCPA can be obtained. This method using a plotter is fairly effective, but the number of target ship, which is manually plotted, is limited and it takes several minutes to measure those. 5- 4 JMA-9100 Instruction Manual 5.OPERATION OF TARGET TRACKING AND AIS 5.1.2 Definitions of Symbols 5.1.2.1 Types and Definitions of Target Tracking Symbols Vector/ Symbol Definition 5.1 PREPARATION Remarks Initial acquisition This symbol is displayed until the vector is target displayed after target acquisition. 12 Target acquired in The alarm sounds. automatic The alarm message (New Target) turns red and acquisition zone blinks.The symbol is red colored. 12 Tracked target 12 Dangerous target The alarm sounds. 12 The alarm message (CPA/TCPA) turns red and blinks.The symbol turns red and enlarges.
