Front-of-boat Offset
The front-of-boat offset compensates for the physical location of the radar scanner on a boat, if the
radar scanner does not align with the bow-stern axis.
Measuring the Potential Front-of-boat Offset
1. Using a magnetic compass, take an optical bearing of a stationary target located within viewable
range.
2. Measure the target bearing on the radar.
3. If the bearing deviation is more than +/- 1°, set the front-of-boat offset.
Setting the Front-of-boat Offset
Before you can set the front-of-boat offset, you must measure the front-of-boat offset ().
The front-of-boat offset setting congured for use in one radar mode is applied to every other radar
mode.
1. From the Home screen, select
Radar > Radar Setup > Front of Boat.
2. Select and hold
Up or Down to adjust the offset.
