Screen Modes and Operations
(a) PPI Screen
All functions can be used on this screen.
(b) PPI/SEMI3D Screen
Simultaneous control of both screens at one time with
controls, such as EBLs and VRMs. ZOOM, OFF-C, FL
EBL2, and FL VRM2 cannot be used on this mode. The
"SEMI3D" screen always displays the boat's heading at its
center.
(c) PPI/PPI Screen
The radar picture is alternately refreshed with a separate scanning interval for each PPI screen.
While one image is being refreshed, the other is held static. When cruising at higher speeds,
we recommend using a single PPI screen for continuous real-time imaging.
ZOOM, OFF-C, FL-EBL2, and FL-VRM2 can not be used on this screen. RANGE, GAIN, STC,
FTC, and GZ can be used independently for each by pressing the "SEL WIN" button. The cross
cursor will be displayed on the selected screen and the range indicator will be highlighted.
When adjusting GAIN, STC, or FTC in a dual screen mode, only
the radar image of the screen being adjusted is refreshed. The
other is held static. Approximately five seconds after you press
"ENT" to save the adjustment, both screens will be refreshed in
their normal sequence.
Determining distance with VRM1 on LEFT screen
1) If the RIGHT range indicator is highlighted, change
to the LEFT screen with "SEL WIN".
2) Press the "VRM1" key. The VRM distance in the
lower left of the screen will be highlighted.
3) Rotate the control knob to determine the distance to a
target.
In the dual screen mode, VRM2, EBL1, or EBL2 also work the same way.

5.5.4.4 Slave Display Operation
It is possible to utilize a slave radar display as a repeater for the RA4x(C) radars. However,
there are limitations to this configuration. The master display unit must be set to the single PPI
mode only, in order for the slave to operate properly. Additionally, the slave display will have
reduced target performance if operated outside the range setting of the master. The slave radar
display must be set to “MONI” in the “SETUP”, “CUSTOM” and “PRESET 2” menu. See
5.5.4.6.3.
5.5.4.5 Fault Diagnosis by Self Check (SYSTEM CHECK)
SYSTEM CHECK helps you to identify a problem with your system.
(1) Select SYSTEM CHECK the SETUP menu and press “ENT”.
(2) The self-check will take a few seconds to run. OK indicates the item is operating properly.
NG means it is faulty.
(3) You can test the functioning of the front panel buttons by pushing them. If they are
working properly, their corresponding icons will be highlighted. Rotating the control knob
will make a line move inside the box on screen.
(4) Press the "POWER" key to return to the previous screen.
