MANUAL 50% GAIN

Gain Control and Sea Control
The GAIN control can be set to either Auto or Manual. In Auto mode, the Pathfinder Plus radar optimizes the setting. The SEA control can be set to AutoHarbour (default), Auto-Offshore or Manual mode. In Auto-Offshore mode, the Pathfinder Plus Radar optimizes its settings to account for the effects of sea clutter. In harbours or close proximity to land different auto settings may be necessary to cater for the effects of land clutter. To avoid losing small targets it is therefore advisable to set the Sea control to Auto-Harbour mode. Alternatively, set both Sea and Gain to Manual mode then adjust the settings to ensure that all close small targets are visible. The GAIN control adjusts the level of the display of signals received from the scanner; it is equivalent to a volume control on a radio. Because the SEA control affects the gain, you may need to manually readjust it if you manually change the Gain setting.
Gain Control When the GAIN control is set to Manual, you should check it every time you change the range scale.
On long range settings, the gain should be set to give a slight speckle in the background of the radar picture. Do not set the gain too low, or you may miss small or weak targets. On shorter ranges, you may wish to reduce the gain slightly to reduce the speckle and therefore improve target definition.

Target Vector and History
The MARPA targets can be displayed with a vector line showing where they will be at a certain time in the future, (assuming present course and speed). You can select a relative or true vector and the vector length. The vector type (RV or TV) and length are shown in the status bar. You can also select to view the targets history, this appears as a series of dots that are dropped by the target as it makes way. The interval between them is selectable. A relative vector indicates the targets motion related to your own ships motion. The targets relative course and speed are calculated to produce a vector that is displayed on the target only. This mode is used for collision avoidance and threat assessment. A true vector indicates the targets motion over ground. In this mode true vectors for the target and your own ship are displayed. MARPA measures the direction in which the target and own ship are actually moving over the ground. The result is the vessels true course, the rate of motion is the vessels true speed. Consider this motion as if you were in a helicopter looking down watching the targets move across the water. This mode can aid navigation. Section 7.5 describes how to set the target vector and history parameters.

Repeater Displays

On an integrated hsb2 display system the repeater display (with the appropriate software version) can access the MARPA functions, and targets are shown on the repeater display. MARPA data is also sent on NMEA allowing any other equipment, with the necessary functionality, to show the tracked targets data.
MARPA target acquisition is only available at radar range scales of up to 12nm, although tracking continues at all ranges. Note: If you change to a lower range scale, targets may be beyond the range of the scanner and will be lost. In such cases an alarm pop-up indicates the target is off-screen.

Using MARPA

The MARPA functions are accessed through the MARPA default soft key, and some options are available with the context sensitive cursor, or through the MARPA database list. Where there are two ways of performing a certain function this section describes both ways. Information on how to set up the MARPA system is in Section 7.5.

Using Chart Cards

Inserting a Chart Card

To insert a chart card:

1. Check that the card is a C-MAP NT C-Card with the required chart stored on it. 2. Open the card cover, at the lower left of the display front panel. 3. Hold the card with the title label towards the left, as shown in the illustration. 4. Gently push the card into one of the two slots. It will only go in if it is correctly oriented. Push the card in as far as it will go, then move it to the right so that the top is under the retaining pegs. The card will be held in place by the pegs. 5. Close the card cover until it clicks shut, to prevent water entering the display unit.

The following instructions assume you have the track soft keys displayed.
You use the track soft keys to switch the track on and to specify the interval, as time or distance, at which track points are saved. The time interval between track points can be set to 1s, 5s, 10s, 30s, 1min, 3min, 5min, 10min or 30minutes. The distance spacing between track points can be set to 0.1nm, 0.5nm or 1.0nm. The interval default is a distance of 0.1nm. The maximum track length is 750 points. When the track has reached this length, the first points are overwritten. The track is saved until you switch it off. When the unit is powered off, the current track (thus far) is retained in memory. Setting a short time interval between track points is best suited to navigation within a close or complex environment, e.g. an estuary or marina whereas, in contrast, a greater distance interval is best suited to a long haul voyage. Refer to the setting guide shown in Figure 5-9 to determine the best setting for your planned voyage; this is particularly important if you wish to use SmartRoute to convert your track to a route.

The language setting also affects the display format for lat/long position information.
The simulator allows you to operate your display without data from the antenna and/or external data sources. The system set up simulator options have the following functions: Data provides simulated numerical data, and a waypoint display. Radar provides simulated radar picture, with example targets. The picture does not change if you change the range, although the range rings are adjusted (see Chapter 3). Both provides simulated data and radar picture. When the simulator is switched on, a SIMULATOR data box is displayed during operation, showing the simulation selected.
7.4 Radar Set Up Parameters
The RADAR SET UP option allows you to set up the radar according to your system configuration and your personal preferences. Note: Some parameters can only be changed if you are using the Master display (that is, the display to which the scanner is connected). The following table lists the Radar Set Up parameters and their options, shows the factory default setting, and provides a space for you to make a note of your new default setting. Each parameter is described in the following subsections.

8.3 Selecting the Display Unit Location
The display unit can be mounted using the mounting bracket supplied, or console mounted using the optional flush-mounting kit. The dimensions of the display units, including the bracket, is shown in Figure 8-3. When planning the display installation, the following should be considered to ensure reliable and trouble free operation: Convenience: The contrast and colors seen on all LCD displays vary slightly with viewing angle; this is more noticeable on the left hand side. Power the unit and select a suitable mounting location prior to installing the display. The mounting location should be easily accessible to allow operation of the front panel controls. Access: There must be sufficient space behind the display to allow cable connections to the rear panel connectors, avoiding tight bends in the cable. Interference: The selected location should be far enough away from devices that may cause interference, such as motors, generators and radio transmitter/receivers (see the EMC guidelines earlier in this section).

Cable Runs

Power Cable
The hsb2 series display system (i.e. with a scanner connected where applicable) is intended for use on ships DC power systems rated as follows: 12 V or 24 V systems 12 V, 24 V or 32 V systems 24 V or 32 V systems Radome Scanner System 4 kW Open Array Scanners System; RCkW Open Array Scanners System
A 5 ft. (1.5 m) power cable is supplied for connecting the ships DC power to the display unit. Longer power cable runs may require larger wire gauges to minimise any voltage drop in the cable. The scanner type and the length and type of the inter-unit cable also affect the wire gauge required for the extension
power cable. For further details on the master display power cable length refer to the Pathfinder Plus Radar Scanner Owners Handbook. If a longer power cable run is required, use the supplied power cable to connect to the display unit. Then use a suitable connector block to connect the free end to the extension cable, taking particular care to ensure correct polarity. The supplied power cable has a cross-section of 2.0 mm.
Note: For repeater displays, the power cable may be extended by up to 20 m using a wire gauge of 1.5 mm2 (AWG 16) or greater, irrespective of the interunit cable length.

Inter-Unit Scanner Cable

The inter-unit (scanner) cable entrance is at the rear of the scanner unit. If the unit is mounted on a hollow mast the cable may be run inside the mast and then fed through the radars cable entrance. Make sure that the cable does not chafe where it enters the mast. Note: Route the cable from the display up to the scanner, since this will require the smallest clearance hole. The type of inter-unit cable, for connecting the scanner to the display unit, depends on your scanner package. Refer to the Pathfinder Plus Radar Scanner Owners Handbook for details, which include length considerations and bending radii.

hsb2 Cable

The number of hsb2 (PLUS) display units that can be connected is limited by the total cable length. For example: 10 units 8 units Max. total cable length - 40 m Max. total cable length - 60 m
Note: If you have fewer displays, it may be possible to have more than 60 metres of cable and conversely, if your total cable length is less than 40 metres, it may be possible to connect more hsb2 displays. Contact you authorized Raymarine dealer for further details.

CAUTION: Ensure the correct polarity of the 12 V supply before applying display or SeaTalk power. It is recommended that a multimeter is used to check the connections.

Raystar 120 Satellite Differential technology for the ultimate

in positioning accuracy.

The intelligent Raystar 120 GPS receiver/antenna connects to any Raychart display, hsb2 or SeaTalk network for precision SDGPS accuracy (to less than 3 meters)*. SeaTalk compatibility allows GPS data to be shared instantly by every device on the SeaTalk bus. A NMEA 0183 compatible Raystar 120 is also available adding SDGPS accuracy to NMEA compatible devices.
Satellite Differential GPS technology the ultimate in positioning accuracy.
Developed for precision approach landings in the aviation industry, SDGPS receiver technology was first introduced into the recreational marine industry by Raymarine and is now incorporated into every GPS receiver we build. The Satellite Differential WAAS system consists of a network of ground-based stations and geo-stationary satellites that improve conventional GPS signals via an augmented differential GPS broadcast. With Raymarine GPS receivers, accuracy is better than 3 meters thanks to Satellite Differential and our advanced 12channel SDGPS receiver.
Global Satellite Differential GPS Coverage
WAAS has been operational for marine applications since August 2000, providing extended coverage exceeding current DGPS systems. Similar to WAAS, Europe is developing the EGNOS GPS system. An Asia-based system, MSAS, is also under development. Once these developments are complete, worldwide SDGPS will be available.

*The WAAS system is presently broadcasting and being tested for aviation use. It is expected to be certified by the FAA in the near future. During the testing and certification period, continuous service is expected, however, brief signal outages may occur as refinements and upgrades are made to the system.
