The microwave energy radiated by a radar antenna is harmful to humans, especially to the eyes. NEVER look directly into an open waveguide or into the path of radiation from an enclosed antenna. Radar and other radio frequency radiation can upset cardiac pacemakers. If someone with a cardiac pacemaker suspects abnormal operation, immediately turn off the radar equipment and move the person away from the antenna. Turn off the radar whenever it is necessary to work on the antenna unit or oth

3 Introduction to the Navico radar system The Navico radar system platform is designed to work with many types and models of display heads that belong to brands under the Navico house of brands The radar systems consist of a scanner, processor and connection cables. Scanner models are available with power outputs of 2 kW, 4 kW, 6 kW, 10 kW and 25 kW to suit different customer requirements. Each scanner model has a corresponding radar processor module. Note 10 kW and 25 kW scanners are n

4 Install the radar A radar unit should only be installed by a qualified marine technician, as potentially lethal high voltage is present along with heavy rotating parts. There is a transmit interlock that prevents radar transmissions if the scanner is not rotating. However, a high voltage remains for a period of time after the system is turned off. If you are not familiar with this type of electronics, consult with a trained service or installation technician before attempting to service

4.1 Choose the scanner location The radar's ability to detect targets depends greatly on the position of its scanner. The ideal location for the scanner is high above the vessel's keel line where there aren't any obstacles. The higher the installation position, the longer the radar ranging distance, but the minimum range that the radar can detect targets increases the higher that the radar is mounted. Also see the sections on installing the scanner on a power boat or yacht. When you'r

4.2 Power boat installations Normally, you should install the scanner horizontally, to produce an equal sweep around the power boat: However, when the power boat is traveling at high speed, the bow rises up out of the water and if the elevation angle (trim) of the bow is raised up so that it equals, or exceeds, 50% of the vertical beam width of the radar, this can cause two problems: • ahead of the power boat, the beam is projected too high to sweep the water surface effectively

4.3 Yacht installations Normally you should install the scanner horizontally, to produce an equal sweep around the yacht. However, a yacht heels over to the lee side, and when the heel angle exceeds 50% of the vertical beam width of the radar, this can cause two problems: • on the windward side of the yacht, the beam is projected too high to sweep the water surface effectively. Targets can be missed completely or appear at very poor resolution on the display unit. • on the lee side of

You can find the A-B line for any vessel as follows: • Using a drawing of the vessel, lay a rule along the line of the main deck and continue this forwards as a dashed line extending beyond the bow. • Using a protractor, measure the θ° value (for your scanner model) below the dashed line at the bow and draw in a new line along this angle. • Extend the new line back beyond the bow of the vessel. This is the A-B line. 4.5 How to find the theoretical maximum detection range Propagati

4.6 How to reduce false echoes and shadow zones False echoes can be produced on the radar display if the scanner is installed too close to an object on the vessel's superstructure. This object can block the radar beam and reflect it back, generating the false echoes and shadow zones. If you're having problems with false echoes and/or shadow zones, check if it's possible to re- install the scanner at a higher location where the radar beam will be clear of any obstructions. If not, try

4.8 Install a scanner on a trestle Depending on your chosen location for the scanner, it may be easier to install the scanner if you fabricate a trestle (or radar mast) on which you can mount the scanner. The trestle must be sturdy and secure, and capable of supporting the scanner in all weather conditions. You are recommended to install the base of the trestle parallel to the water surface. Orient the trestle so that the cable inlet on the scanner will face the stern, and so that the

NOTE: Use the bolts supplied as these are hardened stainless steel and the correct length. 4.10 Install the radar processor Install the radar processor in a dry location away from spray, rain, drips, and condensation. The location site must allow you to easily connect the radar processor to the ship's ground, the interconnection cable, the power cable, and the radar communications cable or the network cable. Check that these cables and the ship's ground can easily reach the rad
