Main Screen and Bird’s Eye View (BEV)
The centre of the circular BEV represents the
RS24 Sensor and it shows the relative positions
of the vessel and radar-reflective objects.
Vessel Outline
The length and breadth of the vessel as well as
the offsets and orientation of the RS24 Sensor
within it can be configured on the Vessel tab of
the RS24 Service Interface (
see Page 23
). This
is important for the vessel outline to be correctly
scaled and positioned on the BEV.
Radar Image
Objects in the vicinity of the vessel are rendered
in a colour corresponding to their strength of
radar return. The rendering colour scheme can be
chosen by the user.
Blanking Zone
The Blanking Zone represents the sector of
the Sensor’s “field of view” from which all
received signals are ignored. It is typically set
to correspond to the area in which the beam
would strike portions of the vessel structure.
The blanking zone can be configured using the
Blanking tab of the RS24 Service Interface.
