FURUNO ELECTRIC CO., LTD.
7" LCD MARINE RADAR
Startup screen
After the completion of the startup test, a
timer displays the time remaining for warm up
of the magnetron (the device which transmits
radar pulses), counting down from 1:00 to
0:00.
To turn off the power, press and hold down
the [POWER/BRILL] key (about three
seconds) until the screen goes blank.
Provided that the radar was once in use with
the transmitter tube (magnetron) still warm,
you can turn the radar into TRANSMIT
condition without 1-minute of warm-up. If the
[POWER/BRILL] key was accidentally turned
off and you want to restart the radar promptly,
turn on the [POWER/BRILL] key not later
than 15 seconds after power-off.
Note 1: In a cold environment the screen
appears “foggy” when the power is turned on
but is soon restored to normal condition.
Note 2: Windows other than menu windows
are erased when there is no operation within
about 10 seconds.
1.4 Transmitting, Standby
After the power is turned on and the
magnetron has warmed up, “ST-BY”
(Stand-by) appears, indicating the radar is
ready to transmit radar pulses.
To toggle between transmit and stand-by, do
as below. Note that you may also do this with
“TX/ST-BY” on the User menu.
1. With the power turned on, press the
[POWER/BRILL] key momentarily to show

Note: If you attempt to transmit before
“ST-BY” appears, the beeps sound and
the radar does not transmit pulses. Wait
until “ST-BY” appears.
3. Press the [MENU/ESC] key to close the
window.
When radar pulses are transmitted the radar
receiver is automatically tuned. Echoes
appear in four levels of digitized video
according to echo strength.
