Radar Radar WARNING The marine radar transmits microwave energy that has the potential to be harmful to humans and animals. Before beginning radar transmission, verify that the area around the radar is clear. The radar transmits a beam approximately 12° above and below a line extending horizontally from the center of the radar. Avoid looking directly at the radar, because the eyes are the most susceptible parts of the body.
Radar • Offshore mode—intended for use in open waters, this mode works best with long-range radar signals. • Dual Range mode—provides a side-by-side view of both short-range and long-range radar data. • Sentry mode—allows you to put the radar into timed-transmit mode, in which you can configure a radar transmit and standby cycle to conserve power. You can also enable a guard zone in Sentry mode, which identifies a safe zone around your boat.
Radar Harbor Mode Harbor mode is the standard radar operation for use in inland waters, with a GMR xHD radar. Harbor mode works best with short-range radar signals (2 nm or less). Note: If you switch from Sentry mode to Harbor mode, the radar switches to full-time transmission and disables any guard zones. Showing Harbor Mode From the Home screen, select Radar > Harbor.
Radar Dual Range Mode Dual Range mode provides a side-by-side view of both short-range and long-range radar data, with a GMR xHD radar. The two radar views provided in this mode can be especially useful at night or in inclement weather. Short-range radar data appears on the left side of the dual-range screen, and the signal range cannot exceed 3 nm (4 km).
Radar Enabling Timed Transmit From the Home screen, select Radar > Sentry > Menu > Sentry Setup > Timed Xmit > On. Setting the Standby and Transmit Times You must enable timed transmit before you can set the standby and transmit times (page 76). To help conserve power, you can indicate the radar standby time and the transmit time to implement periodic radar signal transmissions at set intervals. 1. From the Home screen, select Radar > Sentry > Menu > Sentry Setup. 2. Select Stdby Time. 3.
Radar 3. Adjust the size of the guard zone: • For the GPSMAP 6000 series, use the Rocker and the on-screen arrows ( and ). • For the GPSMAP 7000 series, touch the guard-zone corner and drag. 4. Select Corner 2 and repeat step 3 to adjust the location of the second corner of the guard zone. 5. Select Done. Circular Radar Targeting Radar targeting enables you to identify and track objects. About MARPA MARPA is primarily used for collision avoidance, through object targeting and tracking.
Radar Assigning a MARPA Tag to an Object Note: MARPA requires the use of a heading sensor and an active GPS signal. The heading sensor must provide the NMEA 2000 parameter group number (PGN) 127250, or the NMEA 0183 HDM or HDG output sentence. 1. From the Home screen, select Radar. 2. Select Cruising, Harbor, or Offshore. 3. Complete an action: • For the GPSMAP 6000 series, use the Rocker to select an object or location. • For the GPSMAP 7000 series, touch an object or location.

Complete an action: • For the GPSMAP 6000 series, use the Rocker to select a targeted object. • For the GPSMAP 7000 series, touch a targeted object. 4. Select Stop Pointing. Setting the Safe-zone Collision Alarm See “Setting the Safe-zone Collision Alarm (page 17).
Radar VRM and EBL The variable range marker (VRM) and the electronic bearing line (EBL) measure the distance and bearing from your boat to a target object. On the Radar screen, the VRM appears as a circle that is centered on the present location of your boat, and the EBL appears as a line that begins at the present location of your boat and intersects the VRM. The point of intersection is the target of the VRM and the EBL.
Radar Measuring the Range and Bearing to a Target Object You must show the VRM and the EBL before you can adjust them (page 80). The VRM and the EBL configured for one mode are applied to all other radar modes. 1. From the Home screen, select Radar. 2. Select Cruising, Harbor, Offshore, or Dual Range. 3. Complete an action: • Select Menu > Adjust VRM/EBL > Move VRM/EBL for Cruising, Harbor, or Offshore Mode. • Configure the setting for the short-range screen in Dual Range mode.
Radar Navigating a Saved Route on the Radar Screen Before you can browse a list of routes and navigate to one of them, you must record and save at least one route (page 35).

Complete an action: • Select Forward to navigate the route from the starting point used when the route was created.
Radar 9. From the Home screen, select Radar. 10. Select Cruising, Harbor, Offshore, Dual Range, or Sentry. The route appears as a magenta line, with starting point, destination, and turns indicated. 11. Review the course indicated by the magenta line. 12. Follow the magenta line along each leg in the route, steering to avoid land, shallow water, and other obstacles. About the Radar Overlay The Radar Overlay superimposes radar information on the Navigation chart or the Fishing chart.
Radar Showing the Radar Overlay The Radar Overlay displays data based on the most recently used radar mode. From the Home screen, select Radar > Radar Overlay. The radar picture appears in orange and overlays the Navigation chart. Zooming In and Out on the Radar Overlay Zooming while panning the map only affects the zoom scale of the map. The radar range remains the same. Zooming while the map is locked on the boat (not panning) affects the zoom scale of the map and the radar range.
Radar About the Range of Radar Signals The range of the radar signal indicates the length of the pulsed signal transmitted and received by the radar. As the range increases, the radar transmits longer pulses in order to reach distant targets. Closer targets, especially rain and waves, also reflect the longer pulses, which can add noise to the Radar screen.
Radar When using a GMR xHD radar, the last gain and clutter settings configured for use in any radar mode are applied to the Radar Overlay automatically. For example, if the gain for the Harbor mode is set to 50%, the gain for the Radar Overlay is set to 50% automatically. Later, if the gain for the Offshore mode is set to 40%, the gain for the Radar Overlay is set to 40% automatically.
