6.3.2 Setting the history marker
Use the trackball to locate the trackball marker on the horizontal display and
then press the [R/B AUDIO] key. The history marker moves to the trackball
marker and is centered on the ship’s bow, extending 60° in both port and
starboard directions. Own ship mark is fixed at own ship position. The slant
range is automatically changed whenever the tilt angle is changed, to keep the
history marker at a constant depth. When the tilt angle is shallow and the slant
range to the history marker is greater than the range set with the RANGE control,
the sampling point becomes the range in use.
