5.2 TARGET TRACKING OPERATION
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.
