4. Press the ENTER key to conclude your

selection followed by the RADAR
MENU key to close the FUNCTIONS
menu. The ship's speed readout at the
top of the screen shows own ship's
speed fed from the speed log preceded
by the label "LOG."

5. When the speed log is used, select

speed reference to either of SEA or
GND(ground) on the ARPA 2 menu.

Notes:

1) IMO Resolution A.823:1995 for ARPA

recommends that a speed log to be in-
terfaced with an ARPA should be ca-
pable of providing through-the-water
speed data rather than over-the-ground
speed.

2) Be sure not to select LOG when a

speed log is not connected. If the log
signal is not provided, the ship speed
readout at the top of the screen will be
blank. In the event of a log error, you
can continue plotting by entering a
manual speed.

3) If a log signal interval becomes more

then 30 seconds with the ship's speed
5KT or more, the radar regards the
speed log is in a trouble and LOG FAIL
appears, reading xx-x KT. For R-type,
if no speed input is present for 3 min-
utes at below 0.1KT, the radar regards
the log is in failure.

Manual speed input

To manually enter the ship's speed with
the numeric keys:

1. Press the RADAR MENU key on the

plotting keypad to show the FUNC-
TIONS menu.

2. Press the key [6] to select menu item

6SHIP'S SPEED.

3. Press the key [6] to select (or highlight)

MAN option.

4. Press the ENTER key to conclude your

selection. At this point, "MAN = xx.x KT"
appears at the bottom of the FUNC-
TIONS menu.

2.4 Start-up Procedure

Activating the ARPA

To activate the ARPA:

1. Adjust the A/C RAIN, A/C SEA and

GAIN controls for proper radar picture.

2. Press the AUTO PLOT key. The label

ARPA appears in the box at the upper-
right on the screen.

Entering own ship's speed

The ARPA requires own ship's speed and
heading data. Of these, the speed data
can be entered automatically from a
speed log, navaid, or manually through
the numeric keys or based on a selected
reference target (such as a buoy or other
prominent stationary target).

Automatic speed input

For speed log input:

1. Press the RADAR MENU key on the

plotting keypad to show the FUNC-
