         ROT graph
         The ROT graph displays ship’s rate of turn (degrees/min), using the ROT signal fed
         from an ROT sensor. The ROT graph is not shown if the ROT signal is lost or inter-
         rupted.

         To set the ROT graph scale:
         1. Open [MAIN MENU] then click [NAV DATA].
         2. Click [ROT SCALE].
         3. Click the desired scale among 30 degees, 90 degrees and 300 degrees.

         Rudder graph
         The rudder graph shows the rudder angle. The rudder graph is not shown if the rudder
         signal is lost or interrupted.

         To set the rudder graph scale:

         1. Open [MAIN MENU] then click [NAV DATA].
         2. Click [RUDDER SCALE].
         3. Click the desired scale among 30 degrees, 90 degrees, 120 degrees and 180 de-
            grees.

       Autopilot graph
       1) Follow-up (FU) mode
          When the autopilot is in the follow-up mode, the follow-up rudder command is in-
          dicated on the RUDDER scale. In addition, "FOLLOW UP" is indicated at the top
          of the screen. In follow-up mode, the autopilot controls the rudder so that actual
          rudder angle becomes same as commanded one.
       2) Autopilot (AP) mode
          When the autopilot is in the "autopilot" mode and a ROT signal is available from
          the autopilot, the autopilot graph shows ROT command. The actual ROT com-
          mand set on the autopilot is represented by a small circle on the ROT scale. In ad-
          dition, " AUTOPILOT" is indicated at the top of the screen. In "autopilot" mode,
          the autopilot controls the ROT so that actual heading becomes same as com-
          manded one.
       3) Neither FU nor AP mode
          When the autopilot is in neither FU nor AP mode, the autopilot graph shows ROT
          command as default.
       4) No autopilot or on standby
          The autopilot graph is not shown if the signal is lost/interrupted or if there is no au-
          topilot connected (includes standby mode).

1.35     SD Cards
         The SD card (including SDHC card) stores the mark data etc.


1.35.1   About the SD cards
         • Use SD cards carefully. Wrong use can damage the card and destroy its contents.
         • Make sure the cover of the card drive is closed at all times.
         • Remove a card with only your fingers. Do not use metal tools (like tweezers) to re-
           move the card.
         • Do not remove a card during the reading of the card or writing to the card.
         • If there is water at the bottom of the card cover, DO NOT open the cover. Remove
           the water with a dry cloth completely and then open the cover.
         • The SD cards with the SD or SDHC logo can be used (max. 32 GB). Some SD cards
           may not work correctly depending on the card type or maker. The memory cards in
           the table below have been tested and confirmed:
                     Type                    Capacity               Maker                Class

         How to format an SD card
         You need to format an SD card for use with your PC. If the card be-
         comes corrupted, format the card with a formatting program that is
         compatible with the specifications of the SD card. The SD Memory
         Card Formatting Software made by Panasonic is an example.




                                                                                              1-57


1. OPERATION

         How to set an SD card
         The processor unit has two slots for SD cards. The [SD-1] is upper slot and [SD-2] is
         lower.

         1. Pull the tab on the card drive on the processor unit to open the card drive.
         2. Put the SD card in the either card drive, [SD-1] or [SD-2], with the label upward. If
            the card does not set easily, do not use force.
         3. Push the card until the card is in position.

         How to remove an SD card
         To remove an SD card, select [SD-1] or [SD-2] from the [REMOVE EXTERNAL
         MEDIA] menu. There are two methods to open [REMOVE EXTERNAL MEDIA] as
         follows.

         • [MAIN MENU]–[FILES]–[REMOVE EXTERNAL MEDIA]
         • [MAIN MENU]–[CAPTURE]–[REMOVE EXTERNAL MEDIA]
         1. On [FILES] or [CAPTURE] menu, select [REMOVE EXTERNAL MEDIA].
         2. Select the SD card to remove, [SD-1] or [SD-2].
            Note: Select the same card as the card selected on the [DRIVE SELECT] menu.
         3. Pull the tab on the card drive cover to open the card drive.
         4. Push the card to release the card from the card drive.
         5. Remove the card with your fingers then close the cover.
         Note: Always remove an SD card by this method to prevent non-recognition of the
         card the next time when it is inserted. If a card is not recognized, insert the card again
         and do the above operation.


1.35.2   How to save and replay the data

      The plotting symbol is drawn by broken circles during the initial acquisition stage. A
      vector appears in about one minute after acquisition indicating the target's motion
      trend. If the target is consistently detected for three minutes, the plotting symbol
      changes to a solid circle. If acquisition fails, the target plotting symbol blinks and dis-
      appears shortly.

2.7     Lost Target
        Targets not detected in five consecutive scans become
        "lost targets." A lost target is shown in the display with
        a flashing red "X". Flashing stops after the lost target                           (flashing)
        alarm is acknowledged.                                                             Lost target
        If you are in an area where tracked targets are lost fre-
        quently you may want to disable the lost target alarm against tracked targets by max-
        imum range or minimum speed.


2.7.1   Lost target filter

      approach to own ship. TCPA is the time to CPA. Both CPA and TCPA are
      automatically calculated. A negative TCPA value means that you have already passed
      the CPA and the target is going away from own ship.

2. TARGET TRACKING (TT)


2.10     Vector Modes
         Target vectors can be displayed relative to own ship's heading (Relative) or north
         (True).


2.10.1   Description of vectors
         Sea stabilization is a mode where own ship and all targets are referenced to the sea
         using a compass heading and single-axis log water speed inputs. Ground stabilization
         is a mode where own ship and all targets are referenced to the ground using the
         ground track or set and drift inputs. If the accuracy seems unsatisfactory, enter set and
         drift corrections.

         True vector
         Own ship and other ships move on the display at their true speeds and courses. This
         mode is useful for distinguishing moving targets from stationary ones.

         Relative vector
         Other ships move relative to your ship. This mode is useful for finding ships on a col-
         lision course with your ship. A ship whose vector passes through your ship's position
         is on a collision course.

2.11     Past Position Display
         Equally time-spaced dots shows the past position display marking the past positions
         of any targets being tracked.

         A new dot is added every minute (or at other preset time intervals) until the preset
         number is reached. If a target changes its speed, the spacing will be uneven. If it
         changes the course, its plotted course will not be a straight line.

         Past position orientation, true or relative, is controlled with [TRAIL MODE] in the

3.          AIS OPERATION
            The AIS (Automatic Identification System) transponder connected to this radar ex-
            changes all data and information required by the SOLAS 1994 with other AIS-fitted
            ships. AIS information is graphically indicated together with the radar and TT informa-
            tion.

            When AIS is active, manual or reference speed selection is not available.

            AIS Function On/Off
            You may disable or enable the AIS function from the AIS icon. Long press the AIS icon
            with the left button to switch function between on and off.

            When the AIS is turned on, AIS targets are marked with appropriate AIS symbol as
            shown in the table below.

            Note: If the CPA/TCPA alarm is generated while the setting is [AIS OFF], the AIS tar-
            get is automatically displayed and the setting in the [AIS] box becomes [AIS ALL].

          Note 1: The equipment continues to process AIS targets when the AIS feature is
          switched off. When the AIS is again turned on, symbols are immediately displayed.
          Note 2: AIS symbols are momentarily erased after the screen is redrawn when the ori-
          entation mode is changed from the head-up mode.
          Note 3: When no AIS data is received, the message "AIS RECEIVE ERROR"
          appears. Check the AIS transponder.
          Note 4: An AIS target is declared as lost target if it is not detected in five consecutive
          reporting periods.



3.2       AIS Display Filter
          If there are too many AIS targets on the screen you may wish to remove unnecessary
          ones. You may remove targets by distance from own ship, speed, class and length.
          For example, you might want to remove slow moving targets, as they normally do not
          require close monitoring.

          1. Right-click the [AIS] icon.

3.3         How to Activate Targets

3.3.1       How to activate specific targets manually
            When you convert a sleeping target to an activated target, the target’s course and
            speed are shown with a vector. You can easily judge target movement by monitoring
            the vector.

            Sleeping targets within an acquisition zone are automatically changed to activated tar-
            gets and are colored red. See section 3.5 for details.

            1. Right-click the [AIS] icon to activate to show the AIS window.
