Raytheon Adds Enhanced Navigation
Package As Standard On
Pathfinder/ST Radar Systems
Raytheon's Pathfinder/ST pro- vides a new level of navigation per- formance with the addition of the
Enhanced Navigation Package (ENP) as standard on all ST Radar sales. With ENP, operators of ships and ocean-going yachts can enjoy an added measure of efficiency and safety.
The ENP is available in two ver- sions to fit either ARPA or TM radar systems and adds numerous navi- gation capabilities, such as: self- prompting menus for simplified op- eration; selectable readout units in nautical miles, kilometers or stat- ute miles; back-up plotting capabili- ties for safer navigation in case of gyro failure or for head-up RM op- eration; high resolution speed log input for precise target tracking in- formation; true and parallel index nav lines for simplified plotting; and map positioning by lat/long for auto- matic map registration. Additional features of the ENP include Stored
Nav-Lines (ARPA only) so that maps can be stored indefinitely without the need for battery support; bow crossing range/time for numeric dis- play of ranges and times for all tar- gets; numeric and vector displays of set and drift; and a serial data I/O port (ARPA only) for interface to printers and computers.
Pathfinder/ST Radars offer ten ranges from 1/4 to 96 nm. For both the ARPA and TM models, a choice of 34- or 25-cm displays are avail- able and meet International Mari- time Organization (IMO) require- ments for 16- and 12-inch CRT dis- plays.
The Pathfinder/ST Radar satis- fies a wide range of installation and operating requirements, and can retrofit the displays of older
Raytheon Bright Display Radar Sys-
Raytheon Pathfinder/ST 34-cm ARPA (left) and 25-cm TM/EP Radar Consoles tems, or act as high performance repeaters for radars offered by other manufacturers. Multi-unit systems permit keyboard interswitching of up to three displays and transceiv- ers, in any combination.
