4.12 CPA/TCPA Alarm
When the predicted CPA of any AIS target or ARP target becomes smaller than the preset CPA
alarm range and its predicted TCPA less than the preset TCPA alarm limit, an audio alarm sounds
and the symbol of the offending AIS target changes to the dangerous target symbol.
Dangerous target symbol
You may silence the audio alarm with the CANCEL/HL OFF key. The flashing of the symbol stops
when the target’s CPA and TCPA become greater than the CPA and TCPA alarm setting. Pre-
dicted range at the Closest Point of Approach (CPA) and predicted time to CPA (TCPA) of each
AIS target are monitored.
This feature helps alert you to targets which may be on a collision course with own ship.
