Chapter 5 VARIOUS FUNCTIONS
5.18.2 PARALLEL CURSOR
Set the operation for parallel cursors.
When a range is switched, parallel cursors link to a radar range scale for display (“Range Scale Link”).
Range Scale Link Off: If the range is switched, the width between parallel index lines changes in
accordance with the radar range scale.
On: If the range is switched, the width between parallel index lines remains fixed.
Set the mode to move starting point of parallel cursors (“Floating”).
Floating Off: Floating mode is disabled.
Screen Fix: Fixe start point of parallel cursor to the radar display.
Lat/Lon Fix: Starting point of parallel cursor is fixed at specific latitude and longitude.
Set bearing fix mode of parallel cursors (“Bearing Mode”).
Bearing Mode Angle Fix: The angle of parallel cursors is set in true bearing.
For N Up and C Up, the cursors are displayed in true bearing irrespective of
changes in the course of own ship.
For H Up, the angle of the parallel cursors changes as the course of own ship
changes.
Screen Fix: Fix parallel cursor display to the radar display.
The angle of parallel cursors stays the same on the screen regardless of own
ship movement.
When own ship is engaged in TM motions, parallel cursors move as own ship
moves.
Heading Fix: parallel cursors are displayed while the relative angle of the ship's heading
bearing line stays the same.
For H Up, the ship's heading bearing line does not change even though the
course of own ship changes; therefore, the parallel cursors do not move.
For N Up, the ship's heading bearing line changes as the course of own ship
changes; therefore, the parallel cursors also change as the course of own ship
changes.
Select "One Side" or "Both Sides" for parallel cursor display (“One/Both Sides”).
One Side: Parallel cursors are displayed in "One Side" mode.
Both Sides: Parallel cursors are displayed in "Both Sides" mode.
Individual parallel cursors can be displayed/hidden (“Display For Individual Line”).
Display For Individual Line Off: Parallel cursor is not displayed.
On: Parallel cursor is displayed.
The line nearest to the own ship is specified as Line1.
