2-1 2. RADAR OPERATION This chapter covers radar operation, including the optional ARPA (Automatic Radar Plotting Aid) function. Connection of a 1833/1933/1943 series network radar equipped with the ARPA circuit board is required. 2.1Radar Display 17.0 R 8.2nm E1 V1 E2 320.1 R 359.9 R 11.7nm V2 10.9nm Cursor 12/ 3nm SP HU 319. 9 R TRAIL 30m 02m30s G1 IN G2 OUT ES 2 IR L NR Range/ range ring interval Presentation mode Alarm icon Battery icon Zoom area Zoom window Guard zone 1 Trail time Trail elapsed time Guard zone 1 Guard zone 2 Echo stretch Interference rejector Noise rejector Guard zone 2 VRM2 EBL1 VRM1 EBL2 Range ring Pulselength Bearing Heading line EBL1 range VRM1 range Cursor range and bearing EBL2 bearing, VRM2 range Radar display 2. RADAR OPERATION 2-2 2.2Transmitting, Stand-by 1. Press the RADAR TX soft key to show the radar picture. 2. When the radar picture is not required, but you want keep it in a state of readiness, press the RADAR TX soft key to go into the standby mode. ST-BY appears on the display and the RADAR soft key shows STBY as its current option. 2.3Adjusting the Gain The gain circuit adjusts the gain (sensitivity) of the radar receiver. It works in precisely the same manner as the volume control of a broadcast receiver, amplifying the signals received. The proper setting is such that the background noise is just visible on the screen. If you set up for too little gain, weak echoes may be missed. On the other hand excessive gain yields too much background noise; strong targets may be missed because of the poor contrast between desired echoes and the background noise on the display. To adjust receiver gain, transmit on long range, and then do the following. 1. Press the [GAIN] key to display the soft key for adjustment of gain.

Operate the cursor pad to select AUTO ROUGH/OCEAN, AUTO MODERATE, AUTO CALM/HARBOR or MAN (manual) as appropriate. 4. For manual adjustment, rotate the [ENTER] knob to adjust the gain. The adjustable range is 0-100(%). 5. Press the RETURN soft key to finish. 2.4Reducing Sea Clutter Echoes from waves can be troublesome, covering the central part of the display with random signals known as “sea clutter”. The higher the waves, and the higher the antenna above the water, the further the clutter will extend. Sea clutter appears on the display as many small echoes which might affect radar performance. (See the left-hand figure in the figure below.) When sea clutter masks the picture, adjust the A/C SEA circuit to reduce the clutter. A/C SEA adjusted; sea clutter suppressed Sea clutter at screen center Effect of A/C SEA 2.4.1How the A/C SEA circuit works The A/C SEA circuit reduces the amplification of echoes at short ranges (where clutter is the greatest) and progressively increases amplification as the range increases, so amplification will be normal at those ranges where there is no sea clutter. 2. RADAR OPERATION 2-4 2.4.2Adjusting A/C SEA The proper setting of the A/C SEA should be such that the clutter is broken up into small dots, and small targets become distinguishable. 1. Press the [GAIN] key. 2. Press the A/C SEA soft key to show the A/C SEA setting window. A/C SEA
¡ AUTO ROUGH/OCEAN ¡ AUTO MODERATE ¡ AUTO CALM/HARBOR ¤ MAN  68 A/C SEA setting window 3. Operate the cursor pad to select AUTO LOW, AUTO MEDIUM, AUTO HIGH or MAN (manual). 4. When MAN is selected, rotate the [ENTER] knob to adjust the A/C SEA. The adjustable range is 0-100(%). 5. For the log amp type network radar (MODEL-1833/C, 1933/C, 1943/C), A/C SEA and A/C RAIN can be automatically adjusted. Press the soft key A/C AT to turn automatic adjustment on or off as appropriate. 6. Press the GAIN or RETURN soft key to finish. 2.5Reducing Precipitation Clutter The vertical beamwidth of the antenna is designed to see surface targets even when the ship is rolling. However, by this design the unit will also detect rain clutter (rain, snow, hail, etc.) in the same manner as normal targets. The illustration in below shows the appearance of rain clutter on the display. [A/C RAIN] control off [A/C RAIN] control adjusted Effect of A/C RAIN 2. RADAR OPERATION 2-5 2.5.1Adjusting the A/C RAIN When rain clutter masks echoes, adjust the A/C RAIN circuit. This circuit splits up these unwanted echoes into a speckled pattern, making recognition of solid targets easier. 1. Press the [GAIN] key to show the GAIN ADJUST menu. 2. Press the A/C RAIN soft key to show the A/C RAIN window. A/C RAIN 68 A/C RAIN setting window 3. Rotate the [ENTER] knob to adjust the A/C RAIN affect. The current level is shown on the A/C RAIN level bar in the A/C RAIN window, and the adjustable range is 0 to 100(%). 4. Press the A/C RAIN or RETURN soft key to finish. 2.5.2Adjusting the FTC (linear amp-type network radar only) To suppress rain clutter from heavy storms or scattered rain clutter, adjust FTC. The FTC circuit splits up these unwanted echoes into a speckled pattern, making recognition of solid targets easier. Note:In addition to reducing clutter, the FTC can be used in fine weather to clarify the picture when navigating in confined waters. However, with the circuit activates the receiver is less sensitive. Therefore, turn off the circuit when its function is not required. 1. Press the [GAIN] key to show the GAIN ADJUST menu. 2. Press the FTC soft key to show the FTC window. FTC 68 FTC setting window 3. Rotate the [ENTER] knob to adjust FTC circuit affect. The adjustable range is 0-100(%). 4.

PLOTTER OPERATION 3-3 3.1.2Compass display The compass display, displayed at the bottom half of the screen in the plotter/compass combination display, provides steering information. The compass rose shows two arrows: the solid triangle shows own ship’s course (heading) and the hollow inverted triangle shows the bearing to destination waypoint. When own ship’s course is changed, the hollow inverted triangle moves with course change. Ship’s course and waypoint direction are updated every second and other information is updated every 15 seconds. The water temperature and depth graphs shows latest 10 minutes of temperature and depth data. The range of the depth graph is 50 feet and it is automatically adjusted with depth. 003WPT RANGE SOG 10.0km/h STW 10.0km/h 9h59m TTG 23th23:59 ETA 99.9km 350 400 80 60 N w E CSE BEARINGDEPTHTEMP 359.9 359.9°382.9ft59.9°F Waypoint bearing Ship's course Bearing scale XTE monitor (Amount and distance to steer to return to course) Depth graph* Water temperature graph* TO Waypoint Time-to-go to destination Range to waypoint Speed * = Requires appropriate sensor Estimated time of arrival at destination Compass display 3.

WARNING Radio Frequency Radiation Hazard The radar antenna emits electromagnetic radio frequency (RF) energy which can be harmful, particularly to your eyes. Never look directly into the antenna aperture from a close distance while the radar is in operation or expose yourself to the trans- mitting antenna at a close distance. Distances at which RF radiation levels of 100 and 10 W/m 2 exist are given in the table below. Note: If the antenna unit is installed at a close distance in front of the wheel house, your administration may require halt of transmission within a certain sector of antenna revolution. This is possible - Ask your FURUNO representative or dealer to provide this feature.
