Setting up the CPA distance

Closest point of approach (CPA) is the calculated closest distance
between you and a target vessel based on the current speed and
course.

If the radio detects that a target vessel will come closer than the set
distance and within the set T/CPA time, the CPA alarm will sound a
two-tone alert.

1.

Select MENU

→ AIS SETUP → CPA.

2.

Use the

▲ and ▼ keys to raise or lower the CPA distance limit.

3.

Press [OK].

Note:

The CPA distance is always in nautical miles.
