pulse width from SLAVE to be changed without permission. However, it is necessary to set the
range of SLAVE in line with the pulse width of the range used in MASTER because SLAVE cannot
control aerial wires. If the range is not matched with pulse width, no normal images can be
obtained.
TT(ARPA), AIS, GAIN, SEA, RAIN and marks function independently in SLAVE.
The relation between MASTER and SLAVE shown in Figure 3.10 can be exchanged.
Setting method:
(1)
Press [MENU] key at the side for Master and follow [SYSTEM] => [INTETR SWITCH] =>
[MODE] => [MASTER] with the trackball, and press [ENT] key for setting.
(2)
In MASTER/SLAVE connection, when one Display unit is set as MASTER, another Display
unit is automatically set as SLAVE. In addition, input from sensors such as ship’s bearing, ship
speed and latitude/longitude in one Display unit can be used in both units. In this case, the image
bearing can offset.
How to offset of image bearing:
(1)
Watching images, press [MENU] key and follow [MAINTENANCE] => [I/O] => [HDG
OFFSET] => with the trackball and highlight the last digit of entry frame for numerical values
(2)
Press [ENT] key for setting.
3.7.4 Connection of monitor
A monitor displays radar images based on signals of image, bearing and turning angle received
from a Display unit. The monitor operates just like a SLAVE in MASTER/SLAVE connection, it is
necessary to input speed, ship’s bearing and latitude/longitude in the monitor, when map lapping,
TT(ARPA), AIS, stabilization reference, TM and true trail are used.
