Section 5 Basic Operation of the Radar 5-18
The following azimuth modes can be set.
[N UP] North UP (North Up)
• The video is displayed so that the zenith of the PPI points to
the due north.
• Fixed targets do not flicker and are easily identified on the
chart, and the true bearing of a target can easily be read out.
[H UP] Head UP (Head Up)
• The video is displayed so that the ship’s heading line is
displayed at the top of the screen. Since targets are displayed
in their directions relative to the ship’s heading line, the
operator can view the video in the same field of view as in
operating the ship at sea. Therefore, This mode is suitable for
watching over other ships
• This is not available for TM (True Motion) mode.
[C UP] Course UP (Course Up)
• At the setting of Course Up, the ship’s heading (HDG) is fixed
and displayed immediately above the screen.
Similar to true
bearing display, the positions of stationary targets will
not deviate even if yawing occurs in the ship: targets
are displayed stably and the bearing of the heading line
moves only according to the amount of change in own
ship's course. To change the course, select the Course
UP display by clicking on the Azimuth mode combo box
several times. A course can be set again.
[C UP (Angle
Setting)]
Course UP by angle setting (Course Up by angle setting)
• When C UP is selected, the [C UP (Angle Setting)] dialogue
box is displayed. The course angle that is set in the dialogue
box is displayed by being fixed at the top of the screen.
- Input the angle of the ship’s heading in the [Angle] input
box of the [C UP (Angle Setting)] dialogue box.
- The angle can also be input (increase/decrease) by
operating the angle input slider.
-
After completing the setting, click on the [X] button.
