5.2 TARGET TRACKING OPERATION
ARPA/ATA Process Unit (option) is necessary.
This section explains how to use the target tracking function.
The target tracking function automatically tracks a target, and displays the target's course and speed as
vectors.
The target tracking function calculates CPA and TCPA, and issues an alarm as needed.
The tracking data is erased from memory when the power is turned off or during transmission standby.
CAUTION
Use the radar only as a navigation aid.
The final navigation decision must always be made by the
operator him/herself.
Making the final navigation decision based only on the
radar display may cause accidents such as collisions or
running aground.
Use target tracking function only as a navigation aid. The

Making the final navigation decision based only on tracking
target information may cause accidents.
Tracking target information such as vector, target numerical
data, and alarms may contain some errors. Also, targets
that are not detected by the radar cannot be acquired or
tracked.
Making the final navigation decision based only on the
radar display may cause accidents such as collisions or
running aground.
In setting an automatic acquisition zone, it is necessary to
adjust the gain, sea clutter suppression and rain clutter
suppression to ensure that target echoes are displayed in
the optimum conditions. No automatic acquisition zone
alarms will be issued for targets undetected by the radar,
and this may cause accidents such as collisions.
