Radar Functions

The HSB Series Pathfinder Radar includes the following functions:

• Choice of range scales from

nm to 72nm (dependent on scanner type).

• Automatic and manual control of tuning, gain and sea clutter.

• Two Variable Range Markers (VRMs) and Electronic Bearing Lines

(EBLs), allowing target range and bearing measurements.
VRM/EBLs can be floated.

• Target wakes and target expansion mode.

• Two guard zones with alarms.

• Add marks to record important or dangerous locations.

• Man Overboard (MOB) to navigate back to a person or object.

Operation of these radar functions is described in

Chapters 3 and 4
