5.4 Radar Map
A radar map is a combination of map lines and symbols whereby the user can
define and input the navigation data, route planning and monitoring data.
The radar map may contain 20,000 points of data. The map data can be
memorized to facilitate repeated use on a routine navigation area.
The user can create a radar map on-real time while using the radar for
navigation or at leisure time at anchor or while the radar is not being used. Place
of a map can be made for any waterways apart from the actual own ship
location.
All radar map functions are accessed from the radar display. To choose the radar
display, use the trackball to choose the DISPLAY MODE box and push the left
button to display “RADAR.” Then, follow the procedures in this section to create
