Typical radar page
Points to check:
• Radar sweep with echo responses are shown on screen
• Radar status icon rotating in top right hand corner
If either of the above are not present this could indicate a fault.
Refer to the radar troubleshooting section for information.
Check and adjust bearing alignment
Check and adjust the radar bearing alignment to ensure that radar
objects appear at the correct bearing relative to your boat’s bow.
You will need to check the radar bearing alignment for any scanner
installation that is not aligned with the boat.
Note: Bearing alignment should only be done after the compass
heading has been checked (page 82).
To check the bearing alignment
With your boat under way:
1. Align your boat’s bow with a stationary object identified on the
Radar display
An object between 1 & 2 NM distant is ideal.
