To avoid missing weak targets, the interference rejection should be set to OFF when no interference exists. Target separation Controls the target discrimination of the radar (separation between objects is more prominent). Fast scan Sets the speed of the radar antenna rotation. This option gives faster target updates. Ú Note: Maximum speed may not be achieved depending on the radar Settings, Mode, and Range selected. The radar will only rotate as fast as the current control settings allow. Target boost The target boost control increases pulse length or reduces radar bandwidth to make targets appear larger in range and increase radar sensitivity. More options Menu options can vary depending on your radar's capability. VelocityTrack Ú Note: When VelocityTrack is enabled antenna rotation speed may be reduced. Ú Note: When operating the radar in Dual range mode with one of the ranges set to 36 nm or more, increased VelocityTrack coloring noise over land areas may be seen. Doppler coloring is a navigation aid to distinguish moving targets approaching or diverging from your vessel. The radar indicates if a target is approaching or diverging from your vessel when both these conditions are true: • The target's relative speed is greater than the VelocityTrack speed threshold. • The target is not geo-stationary (e.g. land or a marker buoy). The following options are available: • Off - turns off Doppler coloring 18 ADDENDUM | HDS Series

set to OFF when no interference exists.
Target separation
Controls the target discrimination of the radar (separation between
objects is more prominent).
Fast scan
Sets the speed of the radar antenna rotation. This option gives faster
target updates.
Ú
Note:
Maximum speed may not be achieved depending on the
radar Settings, Mode, and Range selected. The radar will only
rotate as fast as the current control settings allow.
Target boost
The target boost control increases pulse length or reduces radar
bandwidth to make targets appear larger in range and increase
radar sensitivity.
More options
Menu options can vary depending on your radar's capability.
VelocityTrack
Ú
Note:
When VelocityTrack is enabled antenna rotation speed
may be reduced.
Ú
Note:
When operating the radar in Dual range mode with one
of the ranges set to 36 nm or more, increased VelocityTrack
coloring noise over land areas may be seen.
