5.2 Tuning
1. Press [MENU] [0] [0] [0] [0] [5] [5] [0] [0] to display the SET UP 2 menu.
2. Press the [9] key to select TUNE SET.
3. Press the [ENTER/SELECT] key to tune. When tuning is completed a beep
sounds (R-type only).
5.3 Heading Alignment
You have mounted the scanner unit facing straight ahead in the direction of the
bow. Therefore, a small but conspicuous target dead ahead visually should ap-
pear on the heading marker (zero degrees).
Set heading alignment for both main display and sub display (if installed).
In practice, you will probably observe some small bearing error on the display
because of the difficulty in achieving accurate initial positioning of the scanner
unit. The following adjustment will compensate for this error.
