OPTIONS MK-10 RADAR 10-inch Heavy-Duty, 10 KW or 50 KW System. MK-12 RADAR 12-inch High Resolution, High Performance, 50 KW System with Flat Reflection Plotter. ; > , True Motion When the operator elects to use the True Motion mode the radar picture is shown as if it were from a fixed location. Thus all moving objects including one's own ship move on the scope with true speed and true course and all landmasses, buoys, and other fixed objects shown in fixed chartlike fashion. Once your ship has moved near the edge of the scope a warning sounds as a reminder to reset your position for a new frame just as you would change charts when you came near the limit of the chart in use. If the operator prefers he can select automatic reset to center when the limit of one frame is reached. True Bearing Adapter Allows connectors to the ship's gyro-compass to permit the top of radar picture to represent True North instead of ship's bow. Switchable at operator's option. Additional Variable Range Marker The MK-10 and MK-12 have fixed range markers and a variable range marker as standard equipment. Up to two additional variable markers are available for use as general rings or target designation rings. The extra rings show as broken or dotted lines for easy identification. Off-Center Unit The radar picture can be positioned off-center to give an extended view in any desired direction within the 11/2 to 12-mile range scales. Electronic Cursor Provides an accurate bearing reading when the display center is shifted away from the mechanical center by means of off-center controls or True Motion Controls.
