1.2 The Pathfinder Radar Display
When a scanner is connected and the radar is in Transmit mode, the radar
picture provides a map-like representation of the area in which the radar is
operating. Typically, your ship’s position is at the centre of the display, and its
dead ahead bearing is indicated by a vertical heading line, known as the Ship’s
Heading Marker (SHM).
The radar picture can be viewed with a variety of fixed or customised range
scales. The colour of the radar returns (echoes) indicates their intensity: the
largest returns are shown in yellow and the weakest are shown in light blue. A
status bar at the top of the radar image displays range, current heading and
mode indicators for the various options you can set.
An example radar picture is shown on the next page, with example radar
returns (echoes) and default Pathfinder Radar information. The Status Bar
indicator is also illustrated.
The radar display can show additional information, depending on your
currently selected options, set up selections and the data available from other
equipment. The example displays on the following pages show some of these
features.
Functions are available to control the display as follows:
• Zoom the Display
• Offset your vessel from the centre of the radar picture
Operation of these functions is described in Chapter 2 .
Pathfinder Radar Options
Set up options allow you to customise the radar image by choosing what is
displayed, how it is displayed (including language and units), heading mode
and how the radar operates with other HSB units. You can also view the cursor
position and a variety of data from other equipment, e.g. speed, heading,
depth, wind and tide information in a set of user-selectable data boxes. The
cursor box and user-selected data boxes can be moved around the screen and
they can be turned on or off.
Display options are provided in System Set Up and Radar Set Up as described
in
Chapter 7:Setting Up the System Defaults . In addition, Screen Presentation
Options, described in Chapter 2:Getting Started & Adjusting the Display are
provided to switch:
• Cursor Box and Databoxes On/Off
• Range Rings On/Off
• Waypoint Display On/Off
Note: When you turn the display off and on again, these settings are retained
in memory.
