Note: This option is shown only when the radar is

enabled.

Park position If your radar has an open array and

you take it out of enabled mode,

the open array continues to rotate

for a short distance before it finally

stops. The stop position is known as

the park position. You can adjust the

angle of the parking position so that

the open array will always stop at

your preferred position; for example,

facing the bow.

Select Park position then enter the

angle of the new park position.

Note: You may need to try a few

different park positions to find the

correct one. The strength of the wind

will also affect the park position.

Zero bearing Use the zero bearing alignment to

rotate the radar image, one degree at

a time, so that a known object dead

ahead is directly under the boat’s

heading marker.

This means that the radar image is

aligned with the shown chart and

the compass. An accurate bearing

alignment is particularly important

when the radar image is overlaid onto

the chart.

Adjust this on a chart window with

the radar overlay on.

Select Zero bearing then use the

cursor to enter the new bearing

angle.

Zero range The zero range is also known as the

radar range offset and as the trigger

delay.

If your radar window shows a blank,

black circle around the center or a

solid circle of color at the center, you

need to adjust the zero range setting

until this circle disappears or almost

disappears. Ideally, the radar sweep

should start at your boat (a radar

range of zero).
