Checking transmission
WARNING:
The radar scanner transmits electromagnetic energy. Ensure that
the scanner has been installed according to the recommendations
given in
Chapter 1
, and that all personnel are clear of the scanner,
before switching to transmit mode.
Run through the radar operations described in the display unit
Owner’s Handbook
and check that all the expected data is displayed.
Bearing alignment
When the system is correctly installed, you must check the bearing alignment to
ensure that targets appear at their correct bearing relative to the ship’s bow, and
adjust the alignment if necessary.
Display timing adjustment
The display timing can be affected by the length of the cable used to connect the
scanner to the display unit. This in turn affects the short range accuracy shown on
the display.
It is advisable to check the display timing before using the system for navigation.
72" open array position alignment
To ensure the 72" open array scanner rests in correct position when rotation
stops, you need to adjust the radar set up as follows:
1. With the display switched on in Radar mode, press MENU then press the
RADAR SET UP soft key.
2. Use the cursor to select the ANTENNA SIZE option, then press the 6 ft soft key.
Press ENTER twice to return to the default display.
If the Radar Set Up menu option ANTENNA SIZE is not available, then you
have an older version of display software. The 72" open array scanner will
operate correctly with this display. However, for details on adjusting the open
array stopping-position, please contact your authorized Raymarine dealer or
distributor.
