JMA-9172-SA JMA-9172-SA MARINE RADAR MARINE RADAR EQUIPMENT EQUIPMENT INSTRUCTION INSTRUCTION MANUAL MANUAL PRECAUTIONS BEFORE OPERATION Cautions for high voltage High voltages from hundreds volts to tens of thousands volts are to be applied to the electronic equipment such radio and radar devices. You do not face any danger during normal operation, but sufficient cares are required for maintenance, inspection and adjustment of their internal components. (Maintenance, check-up and adjustment of the inside of the equipment are prohibited except by maintenance specialists.) High voltages of tens of thousands volts are so dangerous as to bring an instantaneous death from electric shock, but even voltages of hundred volts may sometimes lead to a death from electric shock. To prevent such an accident, make it a rule to turn off the power switch, discharge capacitors with a wire surely earthed on an end make sure that internal parts are no longer charged before you touch any parts inside these devices. At the time, wearing dry cotton gloves ensures you further to prevent such danger. It is also a necessary caution to put one of your hands in the pocket and not to use your both hands at the same time. It is also important to select a stable foothold always to prevent additional injuries once you were shocked by electricity. If you were injured from electric shock, disinfect the burn sufficiently and get it taken care of promptly. What to do in case of electric shock When finding a victim of electric shock, turn off the power source and earth the circuit immediately. If it is impossible to turn off the circuit, move the victim away promptly using insulators such as dry wood plate and cloth without touching the victim directly. In case of electric shock, breathing may stop suddenly if current flows to the respiration center in the brain. If the shock is not so strong, artificial respiration may recover breathing. When shocked by electricity, the victim will come to look very bad with weak pulse or without beating, resulting in unconsciousness and rigidity. In this case, it is necessary to perform an emergency measure immediately. i FIRST-AID TREATMENTS First-aid treatments As far as the victim of electric shock is not in dangerous condition, do not move him and practice artificial respiration on him immediately. Once started, it should be continued rhythmically.
(1) Do not touch the victim confusedly as a result of the accident, but the rescuer may also get an electric shock.
(2) Turn off the power source calmly and move the victim away quietly from the electric line.
(3) Call a physician or ambulance immediately or ask someone to call a doctor.
(4) Lay the victim on this back and loosen his necktie, clothes, belt, etc.
(5) a. b. c. d. Examine the victim's pulse. Examine his heartbeat bringing your ear close to his heart. Examine his breathing bringing the back of your hand or your face close to his face. Check the size of the pupils of his eyes.
(6) Open the victim's mouth and take out artificial teeth, cigarette or chewing gum if any. Keep his mouth open, stretch his tongue and insert a towel or the like in his mouth to prevent the tongue from suffocating. (If it is hard to open his mouth due to set teeth, open it with a screwdriver and insert a towel in this mouth.)
(7) Then, wipe his mouth so that foaming mucus does not accumulate inside. ii When pulse is beating but breathing has stopped
(Mouth-to-mouth respiration) Fig 1.
(1) Tilt the victim's head back as far as this face looks back. (A pillow may be inserted his neck.)
(2)
(3) Push his jaw upward to open his throat wide (to spread his airway). Pinch the victim's nostrils and take a deep breath, block his mouth completely with yours and blow into his mouth strongly. Take a deep breath again and blow into his mouth. Continue this 10 to 15 times a minutes
(blocking his nostrils).
(4) Carefully watch that he has recovered his natural breathing and atop practicing artificial respiration.
(5) If it is difficult to open the victim's mouth, insert a rubber or vinyl tube into one of his nostrils and blow into it blocking the other nostril and his mouth completely.
(6) When the victim recovers consciousness, he may try to stand up suddenly, but let him lie calmly and serve him with a cup of hot coffee or tea and keep him warm and quiet. (Never give him alcoholic drinks.) Method of mouth-to-mouth respiration by raising hea
(1)Raise the victim's head. Support his forehead with one of your hand and his neck with the other hand. 1 When you tilt his head backward, the victim, in most cases, opens his mouth to the air. This makes mouth-
to mouth respiration easy.
(2)Cover his mouth as widely as possible with yours and press your cheek against his nose 2 or, pinch his nostrils with your fingers to prevent air from leaking. 3
(3)Blow into his lungs. Continue blowing into his mouth until his breast swells. Blow into his mouth as quickly as possible for the first 10 times. Fig 1. Mouth-to mouth respiration iii When both pulse and breathing have stopped Perform the (Cardiac massage) Fig 2. and (Mouth-to-mouth respiration) Fig 1. When no pulse has come not to be felt, his pupils are open and no heartbeat is heard, cardiac arrest is supposed to have occurred and artificial respiration must be performed.
(1) Place your both hands, one hand on the other, on the lower one third area of his breastbone and compress his breast with your elbows applying your weight on his breast so that it is dented about 2cm (Repeat compressing his breast 50 times or so a minutes). (Cardiac massage)
(2) In case of one rescuer, Repeat cardiac massages about 15 times and blow into his mouth 2 times quickly, and repeat this combination. In case of two rescuers, One person repeats cardiac massages 15 times while the other person blow into his mouth twice, and they shall repeat this combination. (Perform the cardiac massage and mouth-to-mouth respiration)
(3) Examine his pupils and his pulse sometimes. When the both have returned to normal, stop the artificial respiration, serve him with a cup of hot coffee or tea and keep him warm and calm while watching him carefully. Commit the victim to a medical specialist depending on his condition. (Never give him alcoholic drinks.) To let him recover from the mental shock, it is necessary for persons concerned to understand his situations and the necessary treatment. Fig 2. Cardiac massage iv PREFACE Thank you very much for purchasing the JRC marine radar equipment, JMA-
9172-SA. This equipment is a marine radar equipment designed to obtain safe operation of marine ships. This equipment consists of a radar signal transmitter-receiver unit, a LCD display unit and a scanner unit as its main units.

Do not try to remove, break or modify the label. vi PRECAUTIONS Never conduct inspection or repair work of equipment components. Inspection or repair work by uncertified personnel may result in fire hazard or electrocution. For inspection and repair work of equipment components, consult with our branch office, branch shop, sales office, or our distributor in your district. When conducting maintenance, make sure to turn the main power off.Failure to comply may result in electrocution. Turn off the main power before cleaning the equipment. Especially when a rectifier is used, make sure to turn it off since voltage is still outputted from the rectifier even after the indicator and the radar are turned off. Failure to comply may result in equipment failure, or death or serious injury due to electric shock. When conducting maintenance work on the scanner, make sure to turn its main power off.Failure to comply may result in electrocution or injuries.
vii
Make sure to turn off the scanner safety switch. Failure to comply may result in injuries caused by physical contact with the rotating scanner. Never directly touch the internal components of the scanner or indicator. Direct contact with these high-
voltage components may cause electrocution. For maintenance, inspection, or adjustment of equipment components, consult with our branch office, branch shop, sales office, or our distributor in your district. To contact our sales department, branch offices, branch shops, and sales offices:
Please refer to the "Office List" at the end of the document. Do not get close to the radiant section of the scanner. It is a rotating part, and it may cause injuries if it suddenly starts rotating and consequently hits the body. It is recommended that the radiant section be installed at a high place such as on the roof of the wheelhouse, on the flying bridge, on the trestle, or on the radar mast so that no one can get close to it. When any work must be done on the scanner, make sure to turn the safety switch off. viii Microwave radiation level:
Keep away from a scanner when it is transmitting. The high level of microwave is radiated from the front face of the scanner specified below. The microwave exposure at close range could result in injuries
(especially of the eyes). Microwave radiation level System 10 W/m2 NKE-1532 10cm
Make sure to install the scanner at a place higher than human height. Direct exposure to electromagnetic waves at close range will have adverse effects on the human body. Direct exposure to electromagnetic waves at close range will have adverse effects on the human body. When it is necessary to get close to the scanner for maintenance or inspection purposes, make sure to turn the indicator power switch to "OFF" or "STBY."
Direct exposure to electromagnetic waves at close range will have adverse effects on the human body. When conducting maintenance work, make sure to turn off the power so that the power supply to the equipment is completely cut off. Some equipment components can carry electrical current even after the power switch is turned off, and conducting maintenance work without unplugging the power connector may result in electrocution, equipment failure, or accidents. ix When cleaning the display screen, do not wipe it too strongly with a dry cloth. Also, do not use gasoline or thinner to clean the screen. Failure to comply will result in damage to the screen surface. Do not change MBS Level/Area unless absolutely necessary. Incorrect adjustment will result in deletion of nearby target images and thus collisions may occur resulting in death or serious injuries. When disposing of used lithium batteries, be sure to insulate the batteries by attaching a piece of adhesive tape on the + and - terminals. Failure to comply may cause heat generation, explosion, or fire when the batteries get shorted out. Use the radar only as a navigation aid. The final navigation decision must always be made by the operator him/herself. Making the final navigation decision based only on the radar display may cause accidents such as collisions or running aground.
x
Use Target Tracking (TT) function only as a navigation aid. The final navigation decision must always be made by the operator him/herself. Making the final navigation decision based only on tracking target information may cause accidents. Tracking target information such as vector, target numerical data, and alarms may contain some errors. Also, targets that are not detected by the radar cannot be acquired or tracked. Making the final navigation decision based only on the radar display may cause accidents such as collisions or running aground. A malfunction may occur if the power in the ship is instantaneously interrupted during operation of the radar. In this case, the power should be turned on again. When using the [AUTO SEA] function, never set the suppression level too high canceling out all image noises from the sea surface at close range. Detection of not only echoes from waves but also targets such as other ships or dangerous objects will become inhibited. When using the [AUTO SEA] function, make sure to choose the most appropriate image noise suppression level. When using the [AUTO RAIN] function, never set the suppression level too high canceling out all image noises from the rain or snow at close range. Detection of not only echoes from the rain or snow but also targets such as other ships or dangerous objects will become inhibited. When using the [AUTO RAIN] function, make sure to choose the most appropriate image noise suppression level. xi
When setting a guard zone, make sure to properly adjust gain, sea-surface reflection suppression level, and rain/
snow reflection suppression level so that the optimal target images are always on the radar screen. The guard zone alarm will not be activated for targets undetected by the radar, and it may result in accidents such as collisions. The simulation function is used exclusively for deciding whether or not target tracking is properly operating. Therefore, never use this function unless you wish to check target tracking operations. Note especially that, if this function is used during actual navigation, simulated targets are displayed and may become confused with other actual targets. Therefore, never use this function during actual navigation. Optimal values have been set for VD LEVEL and CONSTANT; therefore, never change their values unless absolutely necessary. Failure to comply may result in accidents that would lower target tracking performance. Make sure to shut off the main power before replacing parts. Failure to comply may result in electrocution or equipment failure. xii
Make sure that two or more staff member work together when replacing the LCD. If only one person attempts to replace the LCD, he/she may drop it and become injured. Do not directly touch the inverter circuit of the LCD display with a bare hand since high voltage temporarily remains in the circuit even after the main power is shut off. Failure to comply may result in electrocution. Any adjustments must be made by specialized service personnel. Incorrect settings may result in unstable operation. Do not make any adjustments during navigation. Failure to comply may result in adverse effects on the radar function which may lead to accidents or equipment failure. Any adjustments must be made by specialized service personnel. Failure to comply may result in accidents or equipment failure. Do not make any adjustments during navigation. Failure to comply may result in adverse effects on the radar function which may lead to accidents or equipment failure. Do not change the quantization level settings unless absolutely necessary. If set at an inappropriate value, the target acquisition or target tracking function deteriorates, and this may lead to accidents. xiii The Mounting Point of the Warning Label Warning Label NCD-9170 Display Unit Warning Label Front face Back face NWZ-178 Monitor Unit xiv Warning Label NDC-1478 Radar Process Unit

high-performance radar equipment consisting of a scanner unit, a transmitter-receiver unit and a high resolution color LCD display unit. This equipment complies with the performance standard of IMO. 1.1.1 Function of This System The JMA-9172-SA is a color radar system designed to comply with the international standards of the IMO.The main functions include:
sensitivity adjustment sea clutter and rain/snow clutter suppression interference rejection bearing and range measurement using a cursor, fixed/variable range markers, and electronic bearing line colored own track display(7 colors) NAV line and marker displays TM (True Motion) presentation Target Tracking functions (manual/automatic, target acquisition and tracking, vector and trail displays, Trial maneuver and alarm displays) self-diagnostic facilities radar performance monitoring (Performance Monitor) 11 JMA-9172-SA Instruction Manual > 1.GENERAL AND EQUIPMENT COMPOSITION > 1.2 FEATURES 1.2 FEATURES Realization of Large, Easy-to-see Screen with High Resolution The 23.1-inch color LCD1 with high resolution can display radar images of 320 mm or more in diameter. Even short-range targets can also be displayed as high-
resolution images. Target Detection by Latest Signal Processing Technology The system employs the latest digital signal processing technology to eliminate undesired clutter from the radar video signals that are obtained from the receiver with a wide dynamic range, thus improving the target detection. Target Tracking (TT) Function based on Advanced Technology The target acquisition and tracking performance is enhanced by the use of the fastest DSP and tracking algorithm. So stable operation in target tracking under clutter is ensured. Acquisition and tracking of 100 targets. Hazardous conditions are represented by shapes and colors of symbols as well as sounds. Trial maneuvering functions provided. Tracks of up to 20 target ships can be stored with a maximum of 1,500 points for each of them, and displayed distinguished by using seven different colors. Overlay of Radar Images, Coastlines, and Own Ship's Track As well as operator-created NAV lines and own ship's tracks/ARPA tracks, which is stored on the memory card can be superimpose-displayed with radar images and radar trails in all display modes including the head-up mode. Easy Operation with GUI All the radar functions can be easily controlled by simply using the trackball and two switches to operate the buttons shown on the radar display. 1.The displayed resolution corresponds to SXGA(1280x1024). 12 1 JMA-9172-SA Instruction Manual > 1.GENERAL AND EQUIPMENT COMPOSITION > 1.2 FEATURES Improved Day/Night Mode Five types of background colors are available in Day/Dusk/Night mode (total 5 background colors). Each background color can be reproduced to be suited for the user's operating environment by simple key operation. The radar echoes and a variety of graphics can also be represented in different colors, ensuring easy-to-
see displays. Compact Design and Low Power Consumption Since an LCD has been implemented as the display device, the weight of the display is greatly reduced and the power consumption is lowered in comparison with the conventional radar equipment. Self-diagnostic Program Incorporated The Self-diagnostic program always monitors all the functions of the system. If any function deteriorates, an alarm message will appear on the radar display and an alarm sounds at the same time. Even when the system is operating, the functionality test can be carried out. (except on some functions) Performance Monitor The radar performance (transmitted output power and receiving sensitivity) can appear on the radar display. 13 JMA-9172-SA Instruction Manual > 1.GENERAL AND EQUIPMENT COMPOSITION > 1.3 CONFIGURATION 1.3 CONFIGURATION Table1-1:Specified of scanner, and categories of ship/craft for SOLAS V Type of Radar Antenna type JMA-9172-SA 12ft Slotted Antenna The class of emission: P0N , Q0N Transmitted Output Power 300W Band S Rate of rotation 24rpm Category CAT 1 Table1-2:Radar Configuration and Ship's Mains Type of Radar Scanner Unit JMA-9172-SA NKE-1532 D i s p l a y Unit NCD-9170 Ships Main AC100 to 115V, or AC220 to 240V 50/60Hz 1 Notes:

Procedures 1) Obtain the best-to-see display with optimum brilliance by turning the [BRILL] dial at the lower right of the monitor unit. Turning the [BRILL] dial clockwise increases the brilliance of the entire display. Conversely, turning the [BRILL] dial counterclockwise decreases the brilliance of the entire display. In consideration of the ambient brightness, adjust display brilliance that is high enough to easily observe the radar display but does not glare. 3.2.2 Change Observation Range [RANGE+/-]
Procedures 1) Pressing the [RANGE+] key will increase the observation range, enabling the wider area to be observed. Increasing the observation range will enable a wider range to be observed. However, a video image is small and the ability to detect targets near own ship decreases. Therefore, when observing the vicinity of own ship, use the smaller observation range. 2) Pressing the [RANGE-] key will decrease the observation range, reducing the area that can be observed. Decreasing the observation range will enable the vicinity of own ship to be enlarged. However, caution must be taken because video images of the area beyond the observation range cannot be displayed. 36 JMA-9172-SA Instruction Manual > 3.BASIC OPERATION > 3.2 OBSERVE AND ADJUST VIDEO 3.2.3 Tune JMA-9172-SA radar is fully automatic.

If the gain is too high, unnecessary signals including receiver noise and false images increase resulting in reduction of visibility of targets. On the contrary, if the gain is too low, targets including ships and dangerous objects may not be clearly indicated. Be sure to always adjust for the best gain. See also the Section 3.2.8 "To get the appropriate image that targets can be easily observed". Procedures 1) Adjust noise on the radar display by turning the [GAIN] dial until targets can be easily observed. Turning [GAIN] dial clockwise increases gain. Turning [GAIN] dial counterclockwise decreases gain. Turning the [GAIN] dial clockwise will increase the receiving gain, and the range to observe radar video is widened. However, if the gain is too high, unnecessary signals including receiver noise and false images increase resulting in reduction of targets' visibility. To observe densely crowded targets or short-range targets, turning the
[GAIN] dial counterclockwise will decrease the receiving gain, which enables targets to be easily observed. However, caution must be taken so as not to overlook a small and important target. i It is recommended to restore the setting to the factory default, if you lost the appropriate settings.The factory default level is shown on the bar chart as a green line.

Procedures 1) Open the Process Setting menu by performing the menu operation below. Main 3. RADAR Menu 1. Process Setting 8. User Function Setting The User Function Setting menu will appear. Specify the number for the function for which the settings are to be changed. The following are the operation overviews of each function setting item. page 1-[1] Mode Selects the function name to be indicated at the lower left of the radar display when the function is selected. When the setting is changed back to the factory setting, the initial value of the selected mode is called. The following 11 modes are provided:
Coast Deep Sea Fish Net Storm Calm Rain Bird Long Buoy User1 User2
: Use this mode to monitor a relatively short range, for example, bays and coasts where many boats and ships are running. (Importance is attached to resolution.)
: Use this mode to monitor a relatively long range, for example, the open sea. (Importance is attached to long-range gain.)
: Use this mode to detect small targets such as fishnets of round haul netters hidden by sea clutter returns. (Importance is attached to sea clutter suppression, and gain to moving targets lowers.)
: Use this mode when many rain / snow clutter returns or sea clutter returns are detected in stormy weather. (Importance is attached to rain /
snow clutter and sea clutter suppression, and gain slightly lowers.)
: Use this mode when only a few rain / snow clutter returns or sea clutter returns are detected.
: Use this mode when sea clutter is not strong but rain / snow clutter is strong. (Importance is attached to rain / snow clutter suppression, and gain slightly lowers.)
: Use this mode to detect flocks of sea birds.
: Use this mode to monitor utmost distances in the broad ocean.
: Use this mode to detect small targets like radio buoys in areas outside the sea clutter area. (This mode displays targets of which detection probability is low.)
: General mode used when the nine modes above are not applicable.

page 1-[4] Target Enhance Same function as TARGET ENHANCE Setting described in Section 3.4.3
"Target Enhance (ENH)". page 1-[5] Auto STC/FTC (Auto Sea/Rain) Detects unwanted waves such as rain/snow clutter and sea clutter and automatically suppresses them. When the sea state or weather changes, this function automatically performs suppression processing in accordance with the situation. Suppression processing is not full automatic, and requires the operator to adjust the afterimages of unwanted waves. To adjust the afterimage of sea clutter, use the [SEA] dial. To adjust the afterimage of rain/snow clutter, use the [RAIN] dial. In areas where the density of unwanted waves is low, unwanted waves may remain being judged as targets. Thus, use the automatic clutter suppression mode together with the video process mode. Characteristics of the automatic clutter suppression function:
Off AUTO Sea
: Disables the automatic clutter suppression function. Select off when rain / snow clutter and sea clutter are not strong or when the ship is in a bay.
: Automatically detects the strength of sea clutter, and performs the most suitable sea clutter suppression processing. AUTO Sea/Rain Even when the strength of sea clutter varies depending on the wind direction, AUTO Sea performs the most suitable suppression processing. Land like islands can be displayed naturally. Since rain clouds outside sea clutter areas are recognized as land, there is no effect of suppressing rain / snow clutter.
: Along with AUTO Sea, AUTO Rain automatically detects the strength of rain / snow clutter, and performs the most suitable rain /
snow clutter suppression processing. When rain clouds are scattered about, AUTO Rain performs rain /
snow clutter suppression processing for only the rain-cloud areas. Since land is recognized as rain clouds, land videos become obscure. 3114 JMA-9172-SA Instruction Manual > 3.BASIC OPERATION > 3.9 USE FUNCTION KEY [USER]

Since the displayed noise level varies depending on the combination of the video process mode and the interference rejection level, gain needs fine adjustment for always obtaining the highest level. The gain correction function saves the correction value set by the gain adjust in each function mode, so it can obtain the highest gain without the gain adjust being operated when the function mode is changed. To set high gain, set a value on the + side. To set low gain, set a value on the - side. When the radar interference rejection level is increased, the noise level is lowered. Thus, set a gain correction value to the + side. 3 When the video process mode 3Scan CORREL 4Scan CORREL
, or 5Scan CORREL is used, the noise level is lowered. Thus, set a gain correction value to the + side. When the video process mode Remain or Peak Hold is used, noise is hard to disappear. Thus, set a gain correction value to the - side. page 5-[2] PRF Same function as in the TXRX Setting described in Section 3.8.3 "Set Scanner Unit (TXRX Setting)". 3115 JMA-9172-SA Instruction Manual > 3.BASIC OPERATION > 3.9 USE FUNCTION KEY [USER]

[I] Resolution between adjacent targets and swapping during automatic target tracking Depending on the particular distance and echo size, resolution between adjacent targets during automatic target tracking usually ranges somewhere between 0.03 to 0.05 NM. If multiple targets approach each other, resolution will become about 0.05 NM and this may cause the system to regard them as one target and thus to swap them or lose part of them. Such swapping or less of targets may also occur if the picture of the target being tracked is affected by rain/snow clutter returns or sea clutter returns or moves very close to land.
[II] Intensity of echoes and the target tracking function The intensity of echoes and the tracking function have a correlationship, and thus the target will be lost if no echoes are detected during six scans in succession. If a lost target exists, therefore, radar gain must be increased to support detection of the target. If, however, radar gain is increased too significantly, sea clutter returns or other noise may be erroneously detected and tracked as a target, and resultingly, a false alarm may be issued.
[III]Adverse effects of error sources on automatic tracking To execute accurate tracking, it becomes necessary first to appropriately adjust the [GAIN], [SEA] and [RAIN] dials of the radar so that the target to be acquired and tracked id clearly displayed on the radar display. Inappropriate settings of these adjustments reduce the reliability/
accuracy of automatic tracking. This section explains the features of the target tracking and AIS functions, and the initial setting for using each function. 5 Target Tracking Function The target tracking function calculates the course and speed of a target by automatically tracking the target's move. The target tracking function enables the automatic acquisition of targets by using the automatic acquisition zone function. The target tracking function also enables the simulation of the ship maneuvering method to avoid collisions by using the trial maneuver function. 51 JMA-9172-SA Instruction Manual > 5.OPERATION OF TARGET TRACKING AND AIS > 5.1 PREPARATION If the mode is ground stabilization, SOG/COG used for own ship's information in target tracking. If the mode is sea stabilization, SPD (speed through the water) /
HDG (heading) used for own ship's information in target tracking. AIS (Automatic Identification System) function The AIS function shows the targets information on the radar display, using other ship's information sent out from the AIS unit. 5.1.1 Collision Avoidance 5.1.1.1 Problems of Collision Avoidance in Navigation Marine collision avoidance is one of the problems that have been recognized from of old. Now, it will be described briefly who the collision avoidance is positioned among the navigational aid problems. The navigation pattern of all mobile craft constitutes a system with some closed loops regardless of the media through which the mobile craft travels, whether air, water, the boundary between air and water, or space. This pattern consists of two closed loops in principle, one of which is a collision with another mobile craft and the other is a loop of finding a right and safe way to reach a predeterminate destination. Fig. 5-1 shows the conceptual diagram of navigation pattern by MR. E.W. Anderson. The closed loop of collision avoidance is shown on the left side and the closed loop of finding a right course on the right side. Collision avoidance Destination Decision of cource Traffic rule Vessels Spacing loop Course Guide loop Dead reckoning Caluculati on Visual and radio watch Cource and speed Cllision avoidance loop Judgement Mancuver Insrument or judgement Control loop Fixing by radio wave , visual and celestial observation Compass and log Ship traveling in controlled condition Fig 5-1: Navigation Pattern 52 5.1.1.2 5.1.1.3 JMA-9172-SA Instruction Manual > 5.OPERATION OF TARGET TRACKING AND AIS > 5.1 PREPARATION Marine Accidents and Collisions Among marine accidents, collision accidents have been highlighted as the tonnages and speeds of ships become higher along with the increase in traffic at sea. If a tanker carrying dangerous articles such as crude oil collides with any other vessel, then not only the vessels involved with the accident but other vessels in the vicinity, port facilities, inhabitants in the coastal area as well as marine resources may also suffer immeasurable damages and troubles. Collision accidents have a high percentage of the marine accidents that have occurred in recent years. To cope with these problems, any effective measures are needed and some equipment to achieve collision avoidance requirements have been developed at rapid strides. Basic Concept of Collision Avoidance There are two aspects in collision avoidance: collision prediction and avoidance. Collision prediction is to predict that two or more vessels will happen to occupy the same point at the same time, while collision avoidance is to maneuver vessels not to occupy the same point at the same time. In practical operation of vessels, a spot of collision has to be deemed to be a single point but a closed zone. This closed zone is conceptually defined as a CPA
(Closest Point of Approach). In collision prediction, the time to be taken until a ship reaches the CPA is defined as a TCPA (Time to CPA). Fig. 5-2 shows a diagram caked "Collision Triangle". Target Vessel True Vector 5 TCPATime to CPA Target vessel CPA Collision Triangle Relative Vector Own Ship CPA ring Own Ship True Vector Fig 5-2: Collision Triangle 53 JMA-9172-SA Instruction Manual > 5.OPERATION OF TARGET TRACKING AND AIS > 5.1 PREPARATION 5.1.1.4 Relative Vector and True Vector From two points of view, collision prediction and avoidance, it is necessary to obtain the relative vector of other ship for prediction and the true vector of other ship for collision avoidance in order to grasp other ships aspect. The relationship between the relative vector and true vector is shown in Fig. 5-3. Both rough CPA and TCPA can be obtained easily from the relative speed vector of other ship. This method has an advantage that the risks of collision with all other ships within the radar range can be seen at a glance. On the other hand, the course and speed of other ship can easily be obtained from its true speed vector, enabling other ships aspect to be seen at a glance. Thus, the aspects of other ships
(transverse, outsail, parallel run, reverse run, etc. ) as described in the act of prevention of collision at sea can be readily grasped. If there is a risk of collision with other ship, the operator can determine which rule to be applied and how to operate own ship. N VT T A R VO: Own ship's speed O: Own ship's course VT: Other ship's true speed T: Target ship's true course VR: Target ship's relative speed R: Target ship's relative course A: Aspect VR Relative vector Own ship true vector Target ship true vector N O Vo CPA Fig 5-3: Relative Vector and True vector 5.1.1.5 Radar and Collision Avoidance Radar is still playing an important roll for collision prevention and positioning. A plotter is used to further enhance the radar functionality. The plotter is capable of plotting other positions of other ships in 3 to 6 minute intervals to monitor their movement. The plots of other ships represent their tracks relative to own ship, and it is shown whether there is a risk of collision, namely CPA and TCPA can be obtained. This method using a plotter is fairly effective, but the number of target ship, which is manually plotted, is limited and it takes several minutes to measure those. 54 JMA-9172-SA Instruction Manual > 5.OPERATION OF TARGET TRACKING AND AIS > 5.1 PREPARATION 5.1.2 Definitions of Symbols 5.1.2.1 Types and Definitions of Target Tracking Symbols Vector/

5.3.5.1 Types of information displayed There are two modes (simple and detail) to display AIS target information. The display items are determined by the selected mode. Display Itemi NAME (ship name) Call Sign MMSI COG (course over ground) or CTW (course through water) SOG (speed over ground) or STW (speed through water) CPA (closest point of approach)ii TCPA (time to CPA) BRG (true bearing) Range HDG (heading bearing) ROT (rate of turn)iii POSN (latitude / longitude) Destination (waypoint) NAV Status Detail mode Simple mode Up to 20 characters Up to 7 characters Up to 9 characters 0.1 unit 0.1kn unit 0.01NM unit 0.1min unit Not displayed 0.1 unit 0.01NM unit 0.1 unit 0.01 /min 0.0001' unit Up to 20 characters Status (number) i. The detail mode displays the numeric data of only a single ship, the simple mode can display the ii. iii. numeric data of up to two ships. If the numeric information of SOG or STW is 102.2kn, the target ship's speed is 102.2kn or over. Then the system cannot calculate CPA and TCPA. Therefore, missing is indicated in the CPA and TCPA information. If the numeric information of ROT is blank, the radar is receiving the AIS data which is cannot dis-
played. In this case, you can only trust the turning direction which is indicated by the turn indicator. The turn indicator is displayed on the AIS symbol as the line perpendicular to the heading direc-
tion. (See the Section 5.1.2.2 "Types and Definitions of AIS Target Symbols") The detail mode displays the numeric data of only a single ship, the simple mode can display the numeric data of up to two ships.

Making the final navigation decision based only on the alarm may cause accidents such as collisions. In the system, targets are categorized into two types: tracked / activate AIS targets and dangerous targets. The grade of danger can easily be recognized on the display at a glance. So the officer can easily decide which target he should pay attention to. It is not possible to switch off the tracked target visual alarm, unless tracking is ceased, or the alarm condition no longer applies. The types of target and alarm are shown below.

(Trial Maneuver) Attention Trial maneuvering is to simulate own ships course and speed in the conditions that the course and speed of a target ship are unchanged as they are. As the situation is different from any actual ship maneuvering, set values with large margins to CPA Limit and TCPA Limit. The trial maneuvering is the function of simulating own ships course and speed for collision avoidance when a dangerous target appears. When the own ship's course and speed are entered in manual mode, the trial maneuvering function checks if pre-acquired or pre-activated targets are dangerous. The ranges of course and speed to be entered manually:

For this purpose, the operator has to observe the radar displays after fully understanding the advantages and disadvantages that the radar has. For better interpretation of radar display, it is important to gain more experiences by operating the radar equipment in fair weathers and comparing the target ships watched with the naked eyes and their echoes on the radar display. The radar is mainly used to monitor the courses of own ship and other ships in open seas, to check buoys and other nautical marks when entering a port, to measure own ships position in the coastal waters relative to the bearings and ranges of the shore or islands using a chart, and to monitor the position and movement of a heavy rain if it appears on the radar display. Various types of radar display will be explained below. 6.1 RADAR WAVE WITH THE HORIZON Radar beam radiation has the nature of propagating nearly along the curved surface of the earth. The propagation varies with the property of the air layer through which the radar beam propagates. In the normal propagation, the distance
(D) of the radar wave to the horizon is approximately 10% longer than the distance to the optical horizon. The distance (D) is given by the following formula:

Height of RADAR Scanner Detective Range Height of Target Fig 6-2: Maximum detection range of a target When the height of own ships scanner is 10 m for instance, A target that can be detected at the radar range of 64 nm on the radar display is required to have a height of 660 m or more. If the height of a target is 10 m, the radar range has to be approx. 15 nm. However, the maximum radar range at which a target can be detected on the radar display depends upon the size of the target and the weather conditions, that is, the radar range may increase or decrease depending upon those conditions. i. ii. 62 JMA-9172-SA Instruction Manual > 6.TRUE AND FALSE ECHOES ON DISPLAY > 6.2 STRENGTH OF REFLECTION FROM THE TARGET 6.2 STRENGTH OF REFLECTION FROM THE TARGET The signal intensity reflected from a target depends not only on the height and size of the target but also on its material and shape. The echo intensity from a higher and larger target is not always higher in general. In particular, the echo from a coast line is affected by the geographic conditions of the coast. If the coast has a very gentle slop, the echo from a mountain of the inland appears on the radar display.(Fig 6-3) Therefore, the distance to the coast line should be measured carefully. Mountain displayed on the radar display HL 6 Sea shore line not displayed Fig 6-3: Sea shore line which is not displayed Table 6-1 shows the graph indicating the relation between the target detection distance and the radar reflection cross-sectional area (RCS) with regard to the type and the height of the target in a situation in which the weather is good, the sea state is calm and the radio wave propagation is normal. As revealed by this table, even on the same sea shore line, detection distance greatly differs depending on the height of the target from the surface of the sea. Furthermore, because the target detection distance is greatly influenced by the shape and material of the target and environmental conditions, such as the sea state, weather, and radio wave propagation, caution should be taken when detecting distance of target. 63 JMA-9172-SA Instruction Manual > 6.TRUE AND FALSE ECHOES ON DISPLAY > 6.2 STRENGTH OF REFLECTION FROM THE TARGET Table 6-1 Relation between type and height of target and detection distance and RCS Type of target Sea shore line Sea shore line Sea shore line SOLAS target ship (>5000GT) SOLAS target ship (>500GT) Small boat with IMO standard compatible radar reflector Marine buoy with corner reflector Standard marine buoy 10-meter small boat without radar reflector Waterway location beacon Height from sea surface

Reflection from the sea surface is called "sea clutter," and reflection from rain and snow is called "rain and snow clutter," and those spurious waves must be eliminated by the clutter rejection function. a. Sea clutter Sea clutter appears as an image radiating outwardly from the center of the radar display and changing depending on the size and the shape of waves. Generally, as waves become larger, image level of the sea clutter is intensified and the clutter far away is also displayed. When waves are large and the sea clutter level is high, it is difficult to distinguish sea clutter from a small boat whose reflection intensity is weak. Accordingly, it is necessary to properly adjust the sea clutter rejection function. Table 6-2 shows the relation between the sea state (SS) showing the size of waves generated by wind and the radar's detection probability. 6 Table 6-2 Sea state and probability of target detection S band radar (probability to detect a target at a distance of 0.4 NM) RCS SS1 2 0.1m2 Vi 0.5 m2 V 1 m2 V SS2 3 V-Mii V V SS3 4 M-NViii V-M V SS4 5 M-NV V-M X band radar (probability to detect a target at a distance of 0.7 NM) RCS SS1 2 1m2 V-M SS2 3 M-NV SS3 4 SS4 5 5 m2 V 10 m2 V V-M V M-NV V V-M i.

65 JMA-9172-SA Instruction Manual > 6.TRUE AND FALSE ECHOES ON DISPLAY > 6.3 SEA CLUTTER AND RAIN AND SNOW CLUTTER As shown in Table 6-2, the number of SS increases as the wind speed becomes high and the waves become large. Table 6.2 reveals that detection probability decreases from V (80 %) to NV (less than 50 %) as the number of SS increases. Therefore, even if the sea state is calm and a target clearly appears on the radar display, when the sea state becomes rough, target detection probability decreases resulting in difficulty of target detection by the radar.

Significant wave height: an average of top N/3 higher waves when the number of waves detected within a constant time duration is N For example, in the case of a standard marine buoy, RCS of X band radar is 5 m2 as shown in Table 6-1. When observing such a target in the sea state (SS3) in which significant wave height exceeds 1.2 meters, detection probability is M-NV, as shown in Table 6-2, which indicates 50 % or less. b. Rain and snow clutter Rain and snow clutter is a video image that appears in a location where rain or snow is falling. The image changes according to the amount of rain (or the amount of snowfall). As precipitation increases, the image of rain and snow clutter becomes intensified on the radar display, and in the case of localized heavy rain, an image similar to the image indicating land is displayed in some cases. Furthermore, because radio waves tend to attenuate due to rain and snow, the ability to detect a target in the rain and snow clutter or a target beyond the rain and snow clutter may decrease. The amount of attenuation depends on the transmission frequency, antenna beam width, and the pulse length. Fig 6-4 and Fig 6-5 show examples in which detection distance is reduced due to the influence of precipitation. Because of this, a target, which clearly appeared up to 10 NM by an X band radar (pulse width of 0.8s) when it was not raining, may become dimly visible up to 5 NM when the amount of rain becomes 4 millimeters per hour. Furthermore, when comparing the X band radar with the S band radar, target detection distance decreases less when the S band radar is used, which means it is influenced less by precipitation. 66 JMA-9172-SA Instruction Manual > 6.TRUE AND FALSE ECHOES ON DISPLAY > 6.3 SEA CLUTTER AND RAIN AND SNOW CLUTTER

Coping with sea clutter and rain and snow clutter When the weather is bad and the ocean is rough, the use of the S band radar is effective because the radar is not influenced by sea clutter so much and attenuation due to rain drops is small. When an X band radar is used, reducing the pulse width will reduce the influence by spurious waves, and also the spurious wave rejection function effectively works; therefore, the use of short pulse is effective when the weather is bad. By using image processing functions PROCl 1 to 3, it is expected that spurious waves are further suppressed. Since optimal settings for those items can be automatically made by using the function mode, it is recommended that STORM or RAIN be used by selecting the function mode when the weather is bad. For details of the function mode, see Section 3.9 "USE FUNCTION KEY [USER]". However, these functions may make some targets invisible, particularly targets with higher speeds. 68 JMA-9172-SA Instruction Manual > 6.TRUE AND FALSE ECHOES ON DISPLAY > 6.4 FALSE ECHOES 6.4 FALSE ECHOES The radar observer may be embarrassed with some echoes that do not exist actually. These false echoes appear by the following causes that are well known:
a. Shadow When the radar scanner is installed near a funnel or mast, the echo of a target that exists in the direction of the funnel or mast cannot appear on the radar display because the radar beam is reflected on the funnel or mast. Whether there are some false echoes due to shadows can be checked monitoring the sea clutter returns, in which there may be a part of weak or no returns. Such shadows appear always in the same directions, which the operator should have in mind in radar operation. b. Side Lobe Effect A broken-line circular arc may appear at the same range as the main lobe of the radar beam on the radar display. This type of false echo can easily be discriminated when a target echo appears isolated. (see Fig 6-6) 6 HL Fig 6-6: False echo 69 JMA-9172-SA Instruction Manual > 6.TRUE AND FALSE ECHOES ON DISPLAY > 6.4 FALSE ECHOES c. False Echo by Secondary Reflection When a target exists near own ship, two echoes from the single target may appear on the radar display. One of those echoes is the direct echo return from the target and the other is the secondary reflection return from a mast or funnel that stands in the same direction as shown in Fig 6-7. Direct microwave HL Actual target Radar scanner Funnel Secondary reflection of microwave False echo from funnel Fig 6-7: False echo by secondary reflection d. False Echo by Multiple Reflection When there is a large structure or ship with a high vertical surface near own ship as shown in Fig 6-8, multiple refection returns may appear on the radar display. These echoes appear in the same intervals, of which the nearest echo is the true echo of the target. HL Fig 6-8: False echo by multiple reflection e. Second Time Echoes The maximum radar detection range depends upon the height of the scanner and the height of a target as described in the Section 6.1 "RADAR WAVE WITH THE HORIZON". If a so-called duct occurs on the sea surface due to a certain weather condition, however, the radar beam may propagate to a abnormally long distance, at which a target may be detected by the radar. 610 JMA-9172-SA Instruction Manual > 6.TRUE AND FALSE ECHOES ON DISPLAY > 6.4 FALSE ECHOES For instance, assuming that the pulse length is MP2 (on the repetition frequency of 2280 Hz), the first pulse is reflected from a target at about 35.5 NM or more and received during the next pulse repetition time. In this case, a false echo
(second time echo) appears at a position that is about 35.5 NM shorter than the actual distance. If the false echo appears at 5 NM on the radar display, the true distance of the target is 5+35.5=40.5 NM. On the pulse length is LP1 (on the repetition frequency of 1280 Hz), a false echo may appear at a position that is about 63 NM shorter than the actual distance. This type of false echo can be discriminated by changing over the range scale (the repetition frequency), because the distance of the target changes accordingly. If second time echo is appeared, the use of Economy mode in PRF menu is effective. Otherwise, Stagger Trigger menu set to on. (See Section 3.8.3 "Set Scanner Unit (TXRX Setting)"). f. Radar Interference When another radar equipment using the same frequency band as that on own ship is near own ship, a radar interference pattern may appear on the radar display. This interference pattern consists of a number of spots which appear in various forms. In many cases, these spots do not always appear at the same places, so that they can be discriminated from the target echoes. (See Fig 6-9) HL HL 6 Fig 6-9: Radar interference If radar equipment causing an interference pattern and this radar are of the same model, their transmitting repetition frequency is nearly the same. As a result, interference patterns may be displayed concentrically. In this case, the interference patterns cannot be eliminated by using only the interference reflector function, so ine-tune the transmitting repetition frequency.(See Section 3.8.3 "Set Scanner Unit (TXRX Setting)") An interference suppressing effect can be heightened by applying a different transmitting repetition frequency to the interference pattern source radar and this radar. 611 JMA-9172-SA Instruction Manual > 6.TRUE AND FALSE ECHOES ON DISPLAY > 6.4 FALSE ECHOES 612 SECTION 7 SETTINGS FOR SYSTEM OPERATION SETTINGS FOR SYSTEM OPERATION 7.1 7.2 SETTINGS AT INSTALLATION .............................................................7-1 How to Open the Serviceman MenuService Man Menu .........7-1 GYRO I/F Setting .............................................................................7-2 Tuning (Tune Adjustment) .............................................................7-5 Bearing Adjustment ........................................................................7-5 Range Adjustment ...........................................................................7-5 Navigator Setting (Device) .............................................................7-6 Setting of True Bearing Value ........................................................7-7 Antenna Height Setting (Antenna Height) .....................................7-7 Setting of CCRP (CCRP Setting) ....................................................7-8 SETTINGS ............................................................................................7-11 Communication Port Setting (COM Port Setting) .......................7-11 Sector Blank Setting (Sector Blank) ............................................7-15 Setting of Bearing Pulses from Scanner Unit (Output Pulse) ...7-16 Slave Mode Setting (Master/Slave) ..............................................7-16 Language Setting (Language) ......................................................7-17 Date Time Setting ..........................................................................7-18 7.1.1 7.1.2 7.1.3 7.1.4 7.1.5 7.1.6 7.1.7 7.1.8 7.1.9 7.2.1 7.2.2 7.2.3 7.2.4 7.2.5 7.2.6 7.3 7.4 7.2.7 7.2.8 7.3.1 7.3.2 7.3.3 7.3.4 7.4.1 7.4.2 7.4.3 7.4.4 7.4.5 Input Installation Information .......................................................7-19 Setting the Alarm System .............................................................7-19 ADJUSTMENT ......................................................................................7-24 Noise Level Adjustment (Noise Level) ........................................7-24 Adjustment of Target Tracking Function (TT) ............................7-25 Main Bang Suppression Level Adjustment (MBS) .....................7-27 Adjustment of Performance Monitor ...........................................7-29 MAINTENANCE MENU ........................................................................7-31 Antenna Safety Switch (Safety Switch) .......................................7-31 Initialization of Memory Area(Area Initial) ...................................7-32 Save of Internal Memory Data (Card1/2) .....................................7-33 Restoration of Scanner Unit Operation Time (TXRX Time) ......7-34 Update of Character String Data (String Data Update) .............7-36 JMA-9172-SA Instruction Manual > 7.SETTINGS FOR SYSTEM OPERATION > 7.1 SETTINGS AT INSTALLATION 7.1 SETTINGS AT INSTALLATION This section describes the electrical adjustment procedures to be performed by service engineers during system installation.

Inspection or repair work by unauthorized personnel may result in fire hazard or electric shock. Ask the nearest branch, business office or a dealer for inspection and repair. Turn off the main power before maintenance work. Otherwise, an electric shock may result. Turn off the main power before cleaning the equipment. Especially, make sure to turn off the indicator if a rectifier is used. Otherwise, equipment failure, or death or serious injury due to electric shock may result, because voltage is outputted from the rectifier even when the radar is not operating. For operating the radar equipment in the good conditions, it is necessary to make the maintenance work as described below. If maintenance is made properly, troubles will reduce. It is recommended to make regular maintenance work. Common points of maintenance for each unit are as follow:
8 Clean the equipment. Remove the dust, dirt, and sea water rest on the equipment cabinet with a piece of dry cloth. Especially, clean the air vents with a brush for good ventilation. 81 JMA-9172-SA Instruction Manual > 8.COUNTERMEASURE FOR TROUBLE ... > 8.2 MAINTENANCE ON EACH UNIT 8.2 MAINTENANCE ON EACH UNIT 8.2.1 Scanner Unit NKE-1532 Turn off the main power source before starting maintenance. Otherwise, an electric shock or injury may be caused. Turn "OFFi" the safety switch to stop the scanner unit.
(Refer to Section 1.4 "EXTERIOR DRAWINGS".) Otherwise, you may be injured if touching the rotating scanner unit by accident. Do not touch the radiator. Even if the power is turned off, the radiator may be rotated by the wind. i. After the work, turn "ON" the scanner unit safety switch. a. Precautions in Mounting the Cover When the cover is removed for regular checkup and replacement of parts and refitted after such work, the procedures of fastening bolts shall be taken with the following precautions:
1) The proper fastening torque of the fitting bolts (M8) is 1176 to 1470 N/
cm (120 to 150kgf/cm) (which makes the inside water-tight and protects the packings against permanent compressive strain).The packings start producing from the cover at a torque of approximately 1470N/cm
(150kgf/cm). Do not fasten the bolts with a torque exceeding the specified value. Otherwise, the screws may be broken. 2) Use an offset wrench of 11 mm X 13 mm or a double-ended wrench of 13 mm X 17 mm (not longer than 200 mm). 3) Screw all the bolts by hand first to prevent them playing, then fasten them evenly in order not to cause one-sided fastening. (Fasten the bolts with 25% of the required torque at the first step.)
*Fasten the bolts in the diagonal order. 82 JMA-9172-SA Instruction Manual > 8.COUNTERMEASURE FOR TROUBLE ... > 8.2 MAINTENANCE ON EACH UNIT 8-M8 (stainless steel) bolt Tightening torque: 120 to 150 kgf/cm Bolt Tightening Procedure of NKE-1532 Cover b. Radiator Attention 8 If the radiator front face (radiation plane) is soiled with smoke, salt, dust, paint or birds droppings, wipe it with a piece of soft cloth wetted with alcohol or water and try to keep it clean at all times. Otherwise, radar beam radiation may attenuate or reflect on it, resulting in deterioration of radar performance. Never use solvents of gasoline, benzine, trichloroethylene and ketone for cleaning. Otherwise, the radiation plane may deteriorate. Check up and clean the radiator. 83 JMA-9172-SA Instruction Manual > 8.COUNTERMEASURE FOR TROUBLE ... > 8.2 MAINTENANCE ON EACH UNIT c. Rotating section c-1 Supply Oil Seal An scanner unit with a grease nipple needs grease supply. Remove the cap on the grease nipple located on the front of JMA-9172-SA radar at which the radiator is supported, and grease with a grease gun.Make the oiling every six months. The oil quantity shall be approximately 100 g, which is as much as the grease comes out of the oil seal. Use the grease of Mobilux 2 of Mobil Oil. c-2 Oiling gears Apply grease evenly to the tooth surfaces of the main shaft drive gear and the encoder drive gear with a spreader or brush. Oiling in short intervals is more effective to prevent the gears from wear and tear and extend their service life, but oil at least every six months. Use Mobilux2 of Mobile Oil. c-3 Mounting legs Check the mounting legs and mounting bolts of the antenna unit case for corrosion at intervals and maintain them to prevent danger. Apply paint to them once a half year because painting is the best measure against corrosion. 8.2.2 Display Unit (NCD-9170) When cleaning the screen, do not wipe it too strongly with a dry cloth. Also, do not use gasoline or thinner to clean the screen. Otherwise the screen surface may be damaged Dust accumulated on the screen will reduce clarity and darken the video. For cleaning it, wipe it with a piece of soft cloth (flannel or cotton). Do not wipe it strongly with a piece of dry cloth nor use gasoline or thinner. 84 JMA-9172-SA Instruction Manual > 8.COUNTERMEASURE FOR TROUBLE ... > 8.3 PERFORMANCE CHECK 8.3 PERFORMANCE CHECK Make operational check on the radar equipment regularly and if any problem is found, investigate it immediately.

In general, the relatively many causes are disconnection in a high-value resistor due to moisture, a defective variable resistor and poor contact of a switch or relay. Some troubles are caused by defective parts, imperfect adjustment (such as tuning adjustment) or insufficient service (such as poor cable contact). It will also be effective to check and readjust these points. 9.1.1 List of Alarms and other Indications If any of the following alarm occurs, the system displays the alarm message in red in order to attract the attention of operator.
