Maps | Argus Radar Operator Manual
The system will not accept the Dead Reckoning choice, if the ship speed information is miss-
ing, the Geographic Map choice, if the EPFS signal is missing, and neither of them will be
accepted, if the Gyro input signal is missing.
When the Geographic Map type is used, another button will appear in the lower part of the
Editing Map Menu: “Geo Map Manual Settings”. Pressing it, another window will be displayed:
The “Geo Map Manual Settings Menu”. In this menu the operator has the possibility to manu-
ally insert the coordinates of the points and of the objects in the map. It is also possible to
correct or r
efine the position of them. (Refer to par 6.5 for more details)
To save the map:
To save the new map, press the “Store New Map” button and enter the map name using the
alphanumeric keypad displayed. If no name or an already existing map name is inserted, after
the Enter key is pressed, a warning will be displayed and another map name will be requested.
Operating with a selected video map
When pressing the “Maps” button and selecting a map from the list, the operator has the pos-
sibility to open it, with the “Open Map” button, or delete it with the “Delete Map” button. When
choosing to open it, the desired map will appear on the PPI. The “Editing Map Menu” will also
appear in the displaying information section. The appearance of the “Editing Map Menu” is
very similar to “Map color menu” on page 120, but with the name of the map displayed in-
stead of “Map under construction”. The text “Insert” will appear instead of “Start New Line” and
“Update Changes” instead of “Store New Map”.
The three labels in the lower part will indicate the number of lines, texts and symbols com-
posing the map. If one of them is zero the correspondent button is disabled.
With the “Editing Maps Menu” is visualised, it is possible to modify each part of the map, such
as:
•
Move lines (moving only the selected extremity of the segment, leaving the other end point
in its original place), symbols and texts
•
Modify lines and symbols type
• Change color of lines, symbols and texts
• Modify the texts
•
Insert new objects
•
Insert lines between two connected lines
• Delete objects.
If no more changes are intended, the “Editing Maps Menu” can be closed and the map will
remain on the PPI. To remove the map from the PPI, press the “Maps” button and then press
the “Undisplay Map” button. After the confirmation, the map will be removed from the PPI.
Editing objects on the video map
It is possible to make modifications to maps “under construction” and stored maps. Modifica-
tions can be performed only by accessing the “Editing Maps Menu”.
With the “Editing Maps Menu” is active, the object to be modified must be selected. The selec-
tion can easily be performed just by pressing the “Select” button related to the type of ele-
ment to be modified. For example, to modify a line, the “Select Line” button must be pressed.
The following example shows how to modify a line of the map:
1.
Press “Select Line” (Note that the “Select Line” button is not enabled if the map does not
include lines).
2.
Moving the trackball pointer on the PPI, the Help line will show “Hook Line”, “Modify Line” and
“Cancel Line”.
3. Move the trackball pointer over the line to be modified and a kind of highlighting lines will
appear around the line.
