Bow and Starboard Axes
This mode is available for single-target tracking.
In this mode, the position of the sensor vessel is expressed in metres from the target
along Bow (B) and Starboard (S) axes which have their origin at the target. The B and S
coordinate axes are always parallel with the vessel's own axes.

A and B Axes (A Pos and B Pos)
This mode is available for multi-target tracking.
In this mode, the position of the sensor vessel is expressed in metres from the target
along A and B axes which have their origin at the primary target.
The axes are initially aligned with the multi-target group, with the A axis passing through
the secondary target. The vessel's relative heading is measured clockwise from the A
axis.
The radial markers around the outside of the BEV are zeroed in the same direction as the
A axis, which acts as the heading axis. The purple heading tag is aligned with the vessel
bow, at the point on the scale that shows the angle of the bow clockwise from the A axis.
