This open antenna radar signals moving targets in different colors and provides excellent target detection at both short and long-range distances, even in fog or rain.

HIGH-POWER Radar

This 50-watt radar has a range ranging from 6 meters to 133 km (72 nautical miles), even with fog or rain. It offers rotation speeds of 24 RPM to reduce power consumption and 48 RPM so that the screen updates quickly.

HIGH-RESOLITY Radar

The horizontal beam width of 1.25 degrees provides a high-resolution image and the high antenna gain allows even weak targets to be detected at a considerable distance.

Motionscope technology

MotionScope uses the Doppler effect to detect moving targets and highlight them in different colors so that you can surround other boats or navigate in adverse weather conditions, or towards fishing points where the birds feed on the surface.

Intuitive operation

This radar does not have any complex user configuration to deal with, so it is easy to install it and start using it.

Size of the objectives

Adjust the size of the objects that appear in the radar image.

Auto bird gain

It locates flocks of birds on the surface of the water, where schools of fish are likely to be found.

Echo tracking

A historical "track" is reflected on the screen that helps to quickly and easily identify moving targets and possible collision threats.

Dual scale

The simple radar antenna has the ability to provide split-screen images on the plotter, both short- and long-range.

Compatibility with dual radars

Using a dual radar provides redundancy and the possibility of extracting data from one of the two different radar sources in each display unit of the boat.

Dynamic automatic gain

The gain levels are automatically adjusted to the optimal configuration for ports, areas near the coast and the high seas.

Dynamic sea filter

The gain automatically adjusts the sea filter to calm, medium or chopped sea conditions.

Radar overlay

Overlay radar images on the plotter map page. You can add an optional autopilot or course sensor to get the best results (sold separately).

Tracking of marpa objectives

Mini Automatic Radar Plotting Aid (MARPA) tracks up to 10 selected targets, which helps track other boats and avoid collisions.

Guard zone

You can adjust the security zone and receive an alarm when an object enters it.

Vrm and ebl

Variable range markers (VRM) and electronic heading lines (EBL) allow you to quickly measure distance and direction with respect to boats and land.

FAQs

How should network connectivity be established with Garmin systems?

Connect the included Garmin BlueNet cable to a compatible Garmin BlueNet chartplotter or switch, or use a Garmin Marine Network adapter for Marine Network devices.

What precautions should be taken when drilling holes for installation?

Always check what's on the opposite side before drilling to avoid vessel damage.

What care should be taken when drilling or cutting surfaces for installation?

Always check the opposite side of the surface to avoid damaging the vessel when drilling or cutting.

What torque should be used when fastening the radar to the mounting surface?

The hex nuts should be tightened to a torque of 14.7 N-m (11 lbf-ft.) to securely fasten the radar to the surface without damaging the radar or mounting hardware.

How should the radar be grounded?

Connect a 3.31 mm² (12 AWG) copper wire from the pedestal ground connector to a water ground location; do not use the battery negative terminal.

How can the mounting template be used safely and accurately?

Use only the supplied template; do not print your own to avoid incorrect sizing and possible miscut surfaces.

What material should be used for grounding the radar?

Use a 3.31 mm² (12 AWG) copper wire to ground the radar pedestal and voltage converter if applicable.

How should the antenna be attached to the radar pedestal?

Align the antenna socket with the pedestal waveguide, slide together, then tighten the captive hex bolts to a torque of 7.9 N-m (6 lbf-ft.).

Where should the radar be mounted relative to other electronics and antennas?

Radar should be over 2 m from other electronics, 1 m from transmitting gear or radio signal cables, and GPS antennas should be above or below the radar beam.

What wire gauge should be used for grounding the radar?

Use 3.31 mm² (12 AWG) copper wire for grounding the radar pedestal and voltage converter, if present.

Are there specific requirements for extending the power cable?

If necessary, extend using at least 12 AWG for up to 3 m, 10 AWG for up to 5 m, 9 AWG for up to 6.5 m, and 8 AWG for up to 8 m.
