VRM and EBL

The variable range marker (VRM) and the electronic bearing line

(EBL) measure the distance and bearing from your boat to a

target object. On the Radar screen, the VRM appears as a circle

that is centered on the present location of your boat, and the

EBL appears as a line that begins at the present location of your

boat and intersects the VRM. The point of intersection is the

target of the VRM and the EBL.

Showing and Adjusting the VRM and the EBL

You can adjust the diameter of the VRM and the angle of the

EBL, which moves the intersection point of the VRM and the

EBL. The VRM and the EBL configured for one mode are

applied to all other radar modes.

From a radar screen, select Menu > Radar Options > VRM/

EBL.

To adjust the VRM/EBL, select the arrows on the VRM/EBL

button.

Select a new location for the intersection point of the VRM

and the EBL

Select Done

Measuring the Range and Bearing to a Target Object

Before you can adjust the VRM and the EBL, you must show

them on the Radar screen (Showing and Adjusting the VRM and

the EBL, page 35).

From a Radar screen, select the target location.

Select Measure.

The range and the bearing to the target location appear in the

upper-left corner of the screen.

Echo Trails

The echo trails feature enables you to track the movement of

vessels on the radar display. As a vessel moves, you can see a

faint trail of the vessel's wake. You can change the length of

time the trail is displayed.

NOTE: Depending upon the radar in use, the settings configured

for use in one radar mode may or may not be applied to other

radar modes or to the radar overlay.

NOTE: This feature is not available on xHD open array or

HD/HD+ radome models.

Turning on Echo Trails

From a radar screen, select Menu > Radar Options > Echo

Trails > Display.

Adjusting the Length of the Echo Trails

From a radar screen or the radar overlay, select Menu >

Radar Options > Echo Trails > Time.

Select the length of the trail.

Clearing the Echo Trails

You can remove the echo trails from the radar screen to reduce

the clutter on the screen.

From a radar screen, select Menu > Radar Options > Echo

Trails > Clear Trails.

Optimizing the Radar Display

You can adjust the radar display settings for reduced clutter and

increased accuracy.

NOTE: You can optimize the radar display for each radar mode.

Select a radar range (Adjusting the Radar Range, page 33).

Restore the default value of the gain setting (Adjusting Gain

on the Radar Screen Automatically, page 35).

Adjust the gain setting manually (Adjusting Gain on the

Radar Screen Manually, page 35).

Radar Gain and Clutter

Adjusting Gain on the Radar Screen Automatically

The automatic gain setting for each radar mode is optimized for

that mode, and may differ from the automatic gain setting used

for another mode.

NOTE: Depending upon the radar in use, the gain setting

configured for use in one radar mode may or may not be applied

to other radar modes or to the Radar overlay.

NOTE: Not all options are available on all radar models.

From a radar screen or the radar overlay, select Menu >

Gain.

Select an option:

• To adjust the gain automatically for changing conditions,

select Auto Low or Auto High.

• To adjust the gain automatically to show birds over the

surface of the water, select Auto Bird.

NOTE: This option is not available on xHD open array or

HD/HD+ radome models.

Adjusting Gain on the Radar Screen Manually

For optimal radar performance, you can manually adjust the

gain.

NOTE: Depending upon the radar in use, the gain setting

configured for use in one radar mode may or may not be applied

to other radar modes or to the Radar overlay.

From a Radar screen or the Radar overlay, select Menu >

Gain.

Select Up to raise the gain, until light speckles appear across

the Radar screen.

Data on the Radar screen is refreshed every few seconds. As

a result, the effects of manually adjusting the gain may not

appear instantly. Adjust the gain slowly.

Select Down to lower the gain until the speckles disappear.

If boats, land, or other targets are within range, select Down

to lower the gain until the targets begin to blink.

Select Up to raise the gain until the boats, land, or other

targets appear steadily lit on the Radar screen.

Minimize the appearance of nearby large objects, if

necessary.

Minimize the appearance of side-lobe echoes, if necessary.

Minimizing Nearby Large-Object Interference

Nearby targets of significant size, such as jetty walls, can cause

a very bright image of the target to appear on the Radar screen.

This image can obscure smaller targets located near it.

NOTE: Depending upon the radar in use, the gain setting

configured for use in one radar mode may or may not be applied

to other radar modes or to the Radar overlay.

From a Radar screen or the Radar overlay, select Menu >

Gain.

Select Down to lower the gain until the smaller targets are

clearly visible on the Radar screen.

Reducing the gain to eliminate nearby large-object

interference may cause smaller or distant targets to blink or

disappear from the Radar screen.

How do I connect a non garmin camera to the Volvo Penta Glass cockpit (B-Series)? I would like to see and record my kids and they participate in watersports behind the boat as I drive. Submitted on 2-8-2023 at 21:29
