VECTOR REL/TRUE
The course and speed are indicated as vector after tracking is established.
Two types of display mode are available: relative display (REL) and true display (TRUE).
REL: This vector adds the course/speed of a target to the course/speed of own ship.
If the vector is directed towards own ship, possibility of collision exists.
It shows danger of collision at a glance and is useful to avoid collision.
TRUE: This vector shows the course/speed of a target only, regardless of own ship.
