TRUE MOTION
If True Motion
is selected, land masses, buoys, ships at anchor, etc. appear exactly as they
are, as stationary objects, while objects in motion, including your own ship,
move across the operating screen with the correct true speed and course.
True Motion mode is available in N- UP or C- UP mode for all ranges except for
96NM. If the range moves above 96NM, the location of your own ship is
centered.
In this case True Motion provides two special settings linked to the TRAILS
toggle field (chapter 2.3.7.2).
The following figures show the differences on the Radar video.
True Motion
TM (R) for true motion and relative trails
TM (T) for true motion and true trails
True Motion without TRAILS
If no trails are activated, the TM (R) and TM (T) are identical.
Operator controls
Task
