8.13 Displaying Radar Images on a Chart
by Overlaying
Radar images can be displayed by overlaying on the chart.
Note
• To perform overlay display of radar images, the radar function must be installed and radar
images must be received from the radar system.
• If the radar system displays a short-range image and a long-range image on the ECDIS at the
same time, the radar image on the ECDIS may be distorted.
• While the radar image is displayed, the display range can be changed in 11 steps
(0.125/0.25/0.5/0.75/1.5/3/6/12/24/48/96 NM).
• In the case of ARCS charts, the display range varies with the chart to be displayed. If a range
over 120 NM is selected, radar image display automatically turns off.
• The screen display color will automatically change to [Day3] when RADAR Overlay is turned
on. (When the screen display color is Dusk/Night, automatic switching does not occur.)
• When Multi View is used, radar images canot be displayed on View2.

8.13.4 Radar image adjustment
Radar images can be adjusted using the [RAIN], [SEA] and [GAIN] dials on the keyboard operation
unit.
[RAIN] dial: Suppressing rain and snow clutter
The [RAIN] dial suppresses clutter caused by rain and snow. Turning the [RAIN] dial to the right
enhances the contours of targets that are hidden in images of rain and snow. Take care not to
over-adjust this dial. Otherwise, you may miss small targets. This dial also reduces sea clutter. So,
using both the [RAIN] and [SEA] dials is more effective. Normally, keep this dial turned as far as
possible to the left.
[SEA] dial: Suppressing sea clutter
The [SEA] dial lowers the gain at a short range to reduce sea clutter. Turning the [SEA] dial to the right
increases the effect of suppressing sea clutter. Take care not to over-adjust this dial. Otherwise, you
may miss small targets like buoys and small boats.
[GAIN] dial: Adjusting sensitivity
The [GAIN] dial adjusts the gain of RADAR echo. Turning the [GAIN] dial to the right increases the gain
and widens the range in which RADAR echo can be observed.
Take care not to over-adjust this dial, as reception noise on screen increases. This worsens the
contrast and makes it more difficult to tell the difference between targets and RADAR echo.
Alternatively, turning the [GAIN] dial to the left to view at a short range or screens containing closely
packed targets, decreases the gain making targets easier to view. Take care not to over-adjust this dial.
Otherwise, you may miss small targets.
Memo
If the keyboard operation unit is not available, the radar image can be adjusted using [Rain], [Sea]
or [Gain] slider in the setting dialog of [Settings]- [Signal Process (Basic)] on the menu.
The "Signal Process (Basic)" setting dialog can also be displayed by operating the [RAIN], [SEA],
or [GAIN] dials on the keyboard operation unit.
When one of the dials is held down (for 2 seconds or more) at operation termination, the setting
dialog is closed.
For the details of the "Signal Process(Basic)" setting dialog, refer to "18.2 Basic setting of radar
signal processing".

8.14 Setting a true bearing
When a gyro signal is input by using GYRO I/F, sometimes the true bearing value indicated by the
master gyro and the true bearing value indicated by this equipment do not match.
In this case, set the true bearing value of this equipment to the value of the master gyro by using the
following procedure.

Click on the STW Source combo box of the own ship’s information
Select a sensor source in the [STW] combo box. Any of the following sensor sources
can be selected.
MAN
Logx ("x" indicates the equipment number)
When [Menu] is selected, the "Sensor Selection/Status" dialog is displayed.
When [MAN] (Manual) is selected, a speed through water can be input in the "Sensor
Selection/Status" dialog.
•
When using 1-axis log, heading speed component can be detected, but
transverse speed component cannot be detected. Then leeway effect
(component drifted by wind) cannot be detected.
•
When using 2-axes log, its accuracy in shallow waters may be deteriorated, and
its speed in deep sea areas may be unable to be detected.
•
When using a GPS, COG accuracy is less than ±3° at speed: from 1kn to 17kn,
and is less than ±1° at speed: more than 17kn.

manually by using the following procedure.
Select [Menu] from the corresponding combo box.

Section 9 Route Planning
Edit the navigation route according to the world geodetic system (WGS-84).
If you use the navigation route edited by a geodetic system other than the world
geodetic system, an accident may occur.
The Route Planning function creates and edits a route of a ship in advance. A route comprises WPTs
(waypoints) from the starting point to the arrival point and the straight lines (legs) that connect the
WPTs.

Set maximum latitude.
A WPT can no longer be entered in a latitude higher than the latitude that has been set up.
If sailing is [GC], it is possible to create a route by automatically adding WPTs so as not to exceed the
maximum latitude in the case of a route in which part of the leg passes a latitude higher than the
maximum latitude.
If the maximum latitude is 60° or higher, a route can be created even if the GC leg exceeds 60°.
60°N
If the GC leg exceeds 60° when the maximum latitude is 60°, WPTs are automatically added and the
route is adjusted so as not to exceed 60°.
WPTs (W001 and W002) in this example are added so as not to
exceed the maximum latitude (60°).
The segment between W001 and W002 becomes an RL leg.

Note:
A route cannot be created with a leg of 150° or higher in the longitudinal direction.
