Radar: Guard zone settings
There are two radar guard zones, Guard Zone 1 and Guard Zone 2.
You can customize each one, independently of the other, to suit
your own preferences. The changes are applied to all the
Radar
screens.
You can change the size, shape, and location of each radar guard
zone. You can also set up the trigger for the radar guard zone
alarm.

To customize a radar guard zone:
• Display the Radar screen and main menu. If you can't see the
Guard Zones button, select Return.
• Select
Guard Zones then select either:
◦ Setup Zone 1 if you want to customize guard zone 1 OR
◦ Setup Zone 2 if you want to customize guard zone 2.
A new main menu is displayed. Each button shows the current
settings for that radar guard zone.
• Drag a boundary to change it or drag the centre of the guard
zone to move the whole guard zone OR select:
◦ Zone Shape to switch the shape between a sector
(wedge shape) or a circle (a circular band surrounding your
vessel). Sector is the default.
◦ Adjust Range then use the up/down keys to move the
outer edge of the radar guard zone closer to, or further
from, your vessel. Select
OK.
◦ Adjust Bearing then use the up/down keys to move the
entire guard zone to port or starboard, one degree at a
time. Select
OK.
◦ Adjust Depth then use the up/down keys to move the
inner boundary line of the guard zone closer to, or further
from, your vessel. Select
OK.
◦ Adjust Width then use the up/down keys to increase or
decrease the angular width of the guard zone (this won't
work if you've chosen a circular guard zone). Select
OK.
◦ Alarm When then switch between Enter Zone or Exit
Zone to specify when a target will trigger the radar guard
zone alarm. Enter Zone is the default. (Also see "Sensitivity
of guard zone alarms").
• Any changes are made immediately, but the radar guard zone
alarm is suppressed for ten seconds.
• When you are finished, select
Return.
