Heading alignment
Ensure you have installed the antenna unit correctly, so that the unit faces towards the
bow of the ship. A target at the front of the ship, aligned with the bow, must appear on
the heading line (zero degrees). If the target does not appear on the heading line, fol-
low the procedure below to adjust the heading.
1. Set ship heading toward an acceptable target (for example, ship at anchor or
buoy) at a range between 0.125 and 0.25 nautical mile.
2. Transmit the radar at the range of 0.25 nautical mile and measure the bearing of
that target relative to ship heading with an EBL.

ENTER key to show the heading adjustment window.
