Targets ECDIS-E User Guide
9-12 65934012
If the system is in ground stabilised mode the following two fields are
shown:
COG - the true COG of target
SOG - the true SOG of target
The Show Tracked Data button at the bottom of the Target data
tab is disabled on ECDIS-E nodes.
If the target approach point has passed, the CPA field continues to show
the actual CPA value and the passing point is indicated by a TCPA with a
minus value.
The BCR and BCT are only shown if both the crossing time and the
distance are positive, i.e. a target is projected to cross own ship's bow but
has not yet done so. If the target is NOT projected to cross own ship's bow
then both fields are shown as dashed (--.-).
If a target is lost or if a valid heading or speed for own ship is not available
then any invalid target data, except the target number/name and its type, is
shown in an orange warning colour. If the target is subsequently found or
heading/speed becomes valid, the data reverts to its normal system colour.
Tracked targets can be named from the Target Data folder. To name a
target:
1. Click in the target name field below the target identifier. The on
screen keypad appears.
2. Enter a name for the target using the keypad, when finished click
on the keypad OK button. The name entered appears in the Target
name field, and if either Name or Both is selected in the
Identification area of Target Display the name appears alongside
the target, or above the target number on the display.
