3.11 Setting the Display of Charts and User Chart Objects on the CHARTRADAR
☞ For display of the User Chart Objects on the RADARPILOT, see page 41
On the CHARTRADAR, it is also possible to display Electronic Charts if they exist in the system’s
CHARTPILOT
1)
.
The most important display of the Electronic Charts in the system is the display on the CHARTPILOT,
which is usually approved as an ECDIS. There, all of the system’s display and operating functions that
are relevant for this purpose are available. Some of them are also available on the CHARTRADAR.
Important Differences between the CHARTRADAR and the CHARTPILOT
Additionally present on the CHARTRADAR:
- The Electronic Chart and the radar video are displayed simultaneously in the PPI.
- The areas of the Electronics Charts can be replaced by their contours (so that the radar video stands
out better from the Electronic Chart).
Not present on the CHARTRADAR:
- Only vector charts (i.e. no raster charts, e.g. ARCS charts) and User Chart Objects can be displayed.
- The info system (detailed information about the individual chart objects) exists only on the CHART-
PILOT. This also contains the information about the date and number of the last ENC update.
- The depth contours (Safety Contour, Shallow Contour and Deep Contour, Safety Depth) are set on
the CHARTPILOT and are taken over for the display on the CHARTRADAR.
☞ The subject of Electronic Charts is described in detail in the CHARTPILOT Operating Instructions.
In the Operating Instructions that you are now reading, it is assumed that you already possess the
knowledge of operating the CHARTPILOT.
Switching the Display of the Electronic Chart On/Off, Selecting the Chart Type
To display the Electronic Chart, Chart Display Mode must be
switched on, e.g. by pressing the CHART MODE key. The
other settings are performed in the CHART menu, which is
opened by clicking on the CHART button.
Switching the Display of the Vector Chart On/Off
In the CHART menu, click on the VISIBLE button.
1)
If there is more than one CHARTPILOT, the CHARTPILOT from which the data and settings are taken over is specified for each radar at
service level.
