Zeus Touch Operator Manual

Target trails and safe rings

You can define the length of the MARPA trail
making it easier to follow target movement.
A circle can be added around the MARPA target
to present the danger zone. Refer “Defining
dangerous vessels” on page 53.

The vessels extension lines

Sets the length of the extension lines for your vessel and for other vessels.
The length of the extension lines is either set as a fixed distance, or to indicate the distance
the vessel will move in the selected time period.

Defining dangerous vessels

You can define dangerous vessels based upon CPA
(Closest Point of Approach) or TCPA (Time to Closest
Point of Approach). When your vessel comes within
this distance from a vessel, the symbol will change
to the “dangerous” target symbol. An alarm will be
triggered if activated in the Alarm settings panel.

Vessel alarm settings

You can define several Vessels
alarms to alert you if a target
comes within predefined
range limits, or if a previously
identified target is lost.
