1. OPERATIONAL OVERVIEW 

 

 

The radar, video plotter, sounder and chart systems are operated with the 
controls of the display unit (and the remote controller). Ten keys are labeled and 
they provide the function shown on their labels. The five soft keys provide 
various functions according to current operating mode. The [ENTER] knob 
mainly functions to register selections on the menu and adjust the EBL, VRM 
and gain. The trackball’s main function is to move the cursor across the screen. 
When you correctly execute an operation, the unit generates a beep. Invalid 
operation causes the unit to emit three beeps.
