NOTE
:
This manual is not a comprehensive guide to radar technology
or marine electronics, nor is it a quick guide for non-technical personnel,
shipbuilders or end users.
The intent of this manual is to aid only qualified installers. Jeppesen
Marine cannot control some factors, including improper or careless
handling. Such factors can affect the installation process and impede the
results. It is the installer’s responsibility to exercise the necessary level of
knowledge, skill and prudent care to insure a successful installation.
IR2-BB Functionality Defined
The IR2-BB operates as a fully integrated “slave” to an existing radar
plotter. With an open loop connection to a previously installed plotter, the
slave listens to signals that are passed from the transceiver to the plotter.
The IR2-BB unit digitizes the video, trigger, vessel's heading marker
(SHM) and bearing pulse (BP) subset of the signals. The resulting radar
data is processed by the Nobeltec Navigation Software for display on
the target computer or it is shared with other Nobeltec software on other
computers.
