  Adjust antenna height Set the radar scanner height relative to the water surface. The Radar uses this value to calculate the correct STC settings. Select antenna length Select the proper antenna length. Adjust range offset The radar sweep should commence at your vessel (a radar range of zero).

  Misalignment that is not corrected for will compromise target tracking and can result in dangerous misinterpretation of potential navigation hazards. Any inaccuracy will be evident when using MARPA or chart overlay. Point the vessel towards a stationary isolated object, or towards a far range AIS target where the AIS icon matches the radar echo.

  sidelobe returns. You may need to monitor 5-10 radar sweeps to be sure they have been eliminated. Traverse the area again and readjust if sidelobes returns still occur. Sector blanking Radar installed in close proximity to a mast or structure could cause unwanted reflections or interference to appear on the radar image.

  Adjust local interference reject Interference from some onboard sources can interfere with the Broadband radar. One symptom of this could be a large target on the screen that remains in the same relative bearing even if the vessel changes direction. Halo light Controls the levels of the Halo Radar blue accent lighting.

  Vessel setup The Vessel setup dialog must be used to select the number of engines, the number of tanks and vessel’s total fuel capacity across all tanks. Fuel remaining measurement The Fuel remaining measurement can be determined from fuel used by engine(s), or fuel level from tank sensors. Nominal fuel consumption is required to set the scale on the fuel economy gauge.

  Reset Fuel Flow — restores only the Fuel K-Value setting, if set in Calibrate. Only Navico devices can be reset. Calibrate Calibration may be required to accurately match measured flow with actual fuel flow. Access calibration from the Refuel dialog. Calibration is only possible on a Navico Fuel Flow sensor.

  Damping If data appears erratic or too sensitive, damping may be applied to make the information appear more stable. With damping set to off, the data is presented in raw form with no damping applied. Device list Selecting a device in this list will bring up additional details and options for the device.
