Radomes
High-performance radar is one of
the main components of NavNet vx2.
Known for our award winning and
reliable radars, the NavNet vx2 radar
includes the following features:
s
Presentation modes selectable from: North-up, Head-up, Course-up and True Motion
s
Overlay radar targets on chart (appropriate heading sensors required, i.e. PG-500,
C-500, SC50/110, etc.)
s
Auto gain control
s
Echo trail shows an afterglow of moving radar targets
s
Automatic radar plotting to track up to ten targets (Not available on stand-alone 7"
models, unless part of a network incorporating 10.4" or BlackBox models with
ARP-11 installed.)
s
Radar Guard Zone alerts you to potential danger
s
Energy saving Watchman feature
s
Dual EBL (Electronic Bearing Lines) and dual VRM (Variable Range Markers) give
distance and bearing to targets
s
Off-center display allows you to focus on a specific area
s
Customizable color presentation for night-time operation
Automatic radar plotting (ARP)
Up to ten targets can be simultaneously acquired and tracked to show you the heading
direction and speed of the targets.
Radar overlay
Radar targets can be overlaid onto
the electronic chart so that you can
better recognize what's around your
vessel by referencing the target locations
on both the chart and the radar.
Echo trails
This feature displays afterglow of all
the targets to show their tracks. It helps
you foresee their heading directions at
a glance. Its trail duration is adjustable
among 15, 30 s, 1, 3, 6, 15, 30 min and
continuous.
