35. Choose ON and then press the C: ENTER soft key.
You have mounted the antenna unit facing straight ahead in the direction of the bow.
Therefore, a small but conspicuous target dead ahead visually should appear on the
heading line (zero degrees).
In practice, you will probably observe some small error on the display because of the
difficulty in achieving accurate initial positioning of the antenna unit. The following
adjustment will compensate for this error.
a) Set ship’s heading toward a suitable target (for example, ship or buoy) at a range
between 0.125 and 0.25 nautical mile.
b) Rotate the ENTER knob to bisect the target with the EBL and press the A: SET soft key.
c) Press the E: RETURN soft key.
d) As a final test, move the boat towards a small buoy and confirm that the buoy shows up
dead ahead on the radar when it is visually dead ahead.
36. The next step is to choose navigation data sources and calibrate navigation data. Press
the A: NEXT soft key to show the NAV SETUP menu.
