Measuring Range and Bearing to Target from Vessel

To measure the range and/or bearing of a target or point from your
vessels position, you need to place a VRM/EBL and move it so that it
crosses the target or point for which you require the bearing or range.
When you turn on a VRM/EBL, it is displayed in its last-used
position.

Note:

If the VRMs last-used position is outside the radar
picture at the current range setting, it is placed at its
default position instead. This is one third of the range
for VRM1, and two-thirds for VRM2.
