Set up, alignment and timing checks
Switch on and initial set up
1. Press and hold the POWER key of your multi-function display unit until
the unit beeps. The magnetron warm-up sequence should start, after
which the unit should enter standby mode.
2. Power on the Digital Radome scanner, using the relevant softkey on
your multi-function display.
3. If necessary, adjust the brightness on your multi-function display unit.
4. If necessary, change the default language settings.
Transmission check
Ensure that all personnel are clear of the scanner and switch to transmit
mode. Run through the radar operations as described in the relevant multi-
function display unit’s Owner’s Handbook and check that all the expected
data is displayed.
Bearing alignment
With the system correctly installed, check the bearing alignment to ensure
that targets appear at their correct bearing relative to the boat’s bow.
Adjust the alignment as necessary.
Display timing adjustment
It is advisable to check the display timing before using the system for navi-
gation. For instructions on how to do this, refer to the installation guide for
your multi-function display.
