Radar status
Scanner type
Identifies the model of scanner connected to the network.
Software version
Check to make sure you have the latest software. Check the latest software version available
at: www.bandg.com.
Serial number
This number should be recorded for support and insurance purposes.
MARPA status
The MARPA status can identify if a heading sensor is on the network and that the radar is
receiving heading information essential for MARPA calculations.
Reset device ID
Should a radar be connected to the network that has been connected to a dual radar
network in the past, it might not be detected by the system because it might have an invalid
Device ID. With the radar connected and powered up, select the Reset Device ID button to
resolve this problem.
Ú
Note:
This procedure must be performed with only one radar on the network, and only
applies where a network combines an older MFD with other MFDs.
Adjust range offset
(Pulse Radar only)
The radar sweep should commence at your vessel (a radar range of zero). You may need to
adjust the radar range offset to achieve this. If this is set incorrectly, a large dark circle in the
center of the sweep might occur. You might notice straight objects such as straight sea walls
or piers having curves or an indentation. Objects close to your vessel may appear pulled in or
pushed out.
Adjust the range offset as below when the vessel is about 45 to 90 m (50 to 100 yards) from a
straight-walled jetty or similar feature that produces a straight line echo on the display.
• Point the boat towards the jetty
• Adjust the gain setting until a reasonably good image of the jetty echo is displayed
