True motion
In True motion, your vessel and moving targets move across the Radar screen as you travel.
All stationary objects remain in a fixed position. When the vessel’s symbol reaches the edge
of the screen, the radar image is redrawn with the vessel symbol repositioned in the center of
the screen.
When True motion is selected, the menu expands to include a reset true motion option. This
allows for manually resetting the radar image and vessel symbol to the center of the screen.
EBL/VRM markers
The electronic bearing line (EBL) and variable range marker (VRM) allows quick
measurements of range and bearing to vessels and landmasses within radar range. Two
different EBL/VRMs can be placed on the radar image.
The EBL/VRMs are by default positioned from the center of the vessel. It is, however, possible
to offset the reference point to any selected position on the radar image.
When positioned, you can turn the EBL/VRM on/off by selecting the relevant markers on the
data bar, or by deselecting the marker from the menu.
