Raymarine Marine RADAR - Manual (Page 25)

D10703_1
The colors displayed represent the strength of the echoes received from targets. For most targets the echo strength
is closely related to their size. Colors also help to distinguish targets within Clutter. Normally, targets will be
displayed as a stronger color than the surrounding clutter. For example, a Buoy with a radar reflector will show
clearly in sea clutter.

How do I change the radar gain settings?....
The Radar application window allows you to select 4 user configurable preset modes, Buoy, Harbour, Coastal &
Offshore. They allow you to configure the Gain, Color Gain, Rain & Sea Clutter settings to aid you in customising
the display to suit the conditions (see E-Series Reference manual, 'Tuning the radar display'). For each gain preset,
Auto mode is recommended, but you can change settings manually for each preset to suit individual situations.
