Operating Precautions
To avoid electrical shock, never touch the inside of the scanner when
it is connected to an electrical supply.
Always keep the protective cover on the scanner when it is connected
to an electrical supply. High internal voltages can cause serious per-
sonal injury. The equipment should be routinely serviced, only by JRC
authorised personnel.
Avoid passing close to the scanner when the radar is in use.
The scanner unit rotates quickly and can cause personal injury. Both
this and the enclosed radome should be installed at a high place, such
as a cabin roof, or a specially constructed arch, or radar mast. If the
radiating units cannot be installed above all possible, standing head
height, they should be guarded by a strong, protective, enclosing frame.
Prolonged, close range exposure to radar signals is not recommended.
Before approaching close to the scanner, or dismounting it, ensure
that the STBY/OFF and the X-MIT/OFF keys on the display unit have
both been turned off. The cable connector P1 at the rear of the display
unit should be disconnected before removing the scanner unit from its
installed position.
Never sit on the scanner, nor otherwise subject them to weight. They
are not intended to bear loads and ignoring this advice could cause
damage to important internal components.
You will only get optimum performance from your RADAR 1000
MK2 by carefully following this manual’s instructions. Incorrect op-
eration reduces the performance level and could cause damage to the
equipment.
Remember that radar is only an aid to navigation and can be affected
by many physical, environmental and operational factors. Radar does
not diminish the user’s responsibility to keep a good look out at all
times and to exercise all other navigational prudence and human judge-
ment. Radar is not a substitute for human faculties.

SECTION 3
This section provides practical guidelines to assist in the planning and installa-
tion of the RADAR 1000 MK2.
3.1 UNPACKING AND INSPECTION
Use care when unpacking the RADAR 1000 MK2 from the shipping carton to
prevent damage to the contents. It is also good practice to save the carton and
the interior packing material until the radar has been satisfactorily installed.
The original packing material should be used in the unlikely event that it is
necessary to return the unit for service.
3.2 PLANNING THE INSTALLATION
The layout for installing the RADAR 1000 MK2 should be planned to give
the best operation and service aboard your particular vessel. In general, the
scanner unit should be mounted as high as possible above the waterline and the
display unit should be installed in a convenient viewing position near the helm.
Keep in mind the optimum viewing angle when installing the display. You may
wish to apply power before finally installing the unit so that you can determine
a satisfactory viewing angle.
A 15 meter length of interunit cable is supplied for connecting the two main
units (scanner and display). This length should be sufficient to complete the
cable run required on most small vessels. It is, however, recommended that the
maximum length of interunit cable does not exceed 20 meters.
A general system diagram for the RADAR 1000 MK2 is shown on the follow-
ing page.

3.3 MOUNTING THE DISPLAY UNIT
When planning the installation for your display unit, the following conditions
should be considered to ensure dependable and trouble-free operation.
1) The mounting location should be accessible enough to allow easy operation
of all the front panel controls.
2) There should be adequate ventilation.
3) There should be sufficient space behind the display unit to allow for cable
connections to its rear.
4) The display unit should be located near a DC power source.
5) The selected location should be far enough away from any device which
might cause interference, such as motors, generators and echo sounders.
6) Generally, the display unit should be located in a protected area, away from
prolonged direct exposure to rain and salt spray. It is good practice to pro-
tect your valuable electronic equipment as much as possible.
The display unit can be conveniently bracket-mounted on a chart table, or flush
mounted in a bulkhead or other convenient panel. Using the outline of FIG 3-1
and 3-3 as a guide, install the display unit and secure it firmly to the mounting
surface.

3.4 MOUNTING THE SCANNER UNIT
Selecting an adequate location for the scanner unit requires careful consider-
ation. On many small vessels, the unit can be installed on a mast platform, on
an arch or on a bridge structure near the ship’s center line.
The radiator beam should not be obstructed by nearby large objects. Locate the
unit where large structures such as superstructures, searchlights, horns or masts
are not in the same horizontal plane, otherwise blind areas and false targets will
appear on the radar screen.
Using the outline drawing of FIG 3-4 or the template in the front of the manual
as a guide, install the scanner unit by securing it to a solid mounting surface.
The attachment bolts are stainless steel hexhead bolts M6, 30 mm (1.18”) long.
Both flat and lock washers should be used.
Note: Do not apply excessive torque to fix the bolts. Use a 11 cm-long wrench
(Fixing torque: 87 kgf-cm).

MOUNTING BASE
6 20 mm (0.25 0.8 inch)
The scanner unit requires a minimum mounting surface thick-
ness of 6 mm (0.25 inches). If the thickness of the mounting base
is less than this, additional flat washers are required. If the thick-
ness is more than 20 mm (0.8 inches), longer hexhead bolts are
required.
CAUTION
13
Usually, the mounting surface for the
scanner unit should be parallel with
the ship’s waterline. Some vessels,
however, may adopt a higher bow
angle at some cruising speeds. This
substantially alters and raises the
radar’s radiation plane. In this case
nearby target detection might be
poor. It may be helpful to lower the
radar beam towards the FORWARD
parallel by shimming the radar ped-
estal in order to tilt the beam angle
slightly downward with respect to
the waterline.
3.5 CONNECTING THE SCANNER UNIT CABLE
The scanner unit is supplied with an interunit cable, which includes a plug (P1)
for connection to the display unit. If your installation does not allow you to run
the cable with the plug (P1) attached, the wire cable can be disconnected and
reconnected inside the scanner unit. When reconnected, be sure to include the
cable clamp, the rubber grommet, and the clamping plate.

3.6 ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
3.6.1 DC POWER CABLE
The RADAR 1000 MK2 will work with any electrical supply within the 10.2
to 16 V range, since it contains a power regulator circuit. Connect the power
cable to a DC source capable of supplying at least 3 A. The power cable should
normally be wired through a circuit breaker. The red lead wire of the power
cable must be connected to the positive source terminal and the black lead to
the source negative terminal. The shielded wire is be connected to Boat Main
ground. Should the power connections be inadvertently reversed, a protective
fuse will blow. In this event, check the input power leads for correct polarity
with a VOM and reconnect the leads in their correct polarity. Replace the fuse.
The fuse is located in the power cable. [NORMAL-BROW FUSE (5 A)
SHOULD BE SPECIFIED]
3.6.2 EXTERNAL SYSTEM INTERFACE
The RADAR 1000 MK2 will interface with any NAV-AID (GPS or LORAN)
and compass with the standard NMEA0182 or NMEA0183 output. The inputs
from the NAV-AID must be digital data conforming to the NMEA0183 formats
to drive various radar features such as waypoint mode. If more than one data
type is present at the radar input (for example; compass and NAV-AID) a prior-
ity system has been established in the radar’s software to respond to the inputs
in driving the features. The assigned priorities are set in this manner:
HEADING: 1. Compass (NMEA0183 “HDG,HDM,HDT,VHW”)
2. NAV-AID (NMEA0183 “RMC,RMA,VTG”)
POSITION: 1. NAV-AID (NMEA0l83 “RMC,RMA,GLL,GTD”)
SPEED: 1. NAV-AID (NMEA0183 “RMC,RMA,VTG”)
2. Compass (NMEA0183 “VHW”)
WAYPOINT: 1. NAV-AID (NMEA0183 “RMB,BWC”)
Using the outline of FIG 3-7 as a guide, connect the RADAR 1000 MK2 to
your NAV-AID and compass.

SECTION 4
In normal operation the RADAR 1000 MK2 is very easy to use and several of
its functions are totally automatic. However, the prudent navigator spends time
in good visibility to learn the layout of the controls and to become proficient in
their use, so that he/she will obtain the best performance from the equipment
when the visibility is poor, or the sea area is crowded.
This section takes you through the controls step-by-step.
4.1 LAYOUT OF CONTROLS

4.3 SELECTING A RANGE
Press the J-DIAL until RANGE is highlighted in the upper right corner of the
display. The range scale and range rings setting in use is shown in the upper left
corner. Rotate the J-DIAL clockwise to increase the range and anti-clockwise
to decrease it. The range rings are automatically set to correspond with this
selection.
4.4 ADJUSTING RECEIVER SENSITIVITY
Press the J-DIAL until GAIN appears highlighted in the upper right corner of
the display. Rotate the J-DIAL clockwise or counterclockwise, to vary the gain
and thus control the strength of echo returns on the radar screen. An on-screen
bar indicates the gain level selected. The proper setting is when the background
noise is just visible on the screen. (i.e. a light speckled effect)
4.5 ADJUSTING TUNING
Press the J-DIAL until the TUNE appears highlighted at the upper right corner
of the display. Rotate the J-DIAL clockwise or counterclockwise, to maximize
the target echo. If there is no large, identifiable target (e.g. big ship or land)
within range, select SEA CLUTTER and turn the control to maximum. Use
these echoes from wave crests to adjust the tuning bar for fullest attainable
deflection. This is best done with the range set to 3 nm or 6 nm.
When the radar has warmed up, it may be necessary to make a further fine tune
adjustment.
AUTO TUNE
The RADAR 1000 MK2 has an automatic tuning feature. In this mode, the
radar automatically tunes itself for best efficiency at all ranges (refer to 4.24)
OPERATION
25
4.6 REDUCING SEA CLUTTER
The SEA CLUTTER control is normally only used on the shorter ranges to
suppress the effect of sea clutter formed by breaking wave crests which the
radar “sees” as solid objects.
Press the J-DIAL until the SEA appears highlighted in the upper right corner of
the display. Rotate the J-DIAL clockwise, or counterclockwise to vary the sea
clutter control and thus control the strength of echo returns from the sea sur-
face. The on-screen bar indicates the selected level.
4.7 ADJUSTING RAIN CLUTTER
Press the J-DIAL until the RAIN appears highlighted at the upper right corner
of the display. Rotate the J-DIAL clockwise or counterclockwise, to vary the
level and thus control the strength of echoes returned from rain or snow. As you
rotate clockwise, the returned echoes will become narrower and the returns
from rain or snow will be reduced.
4.8 SETTING LCD CONTRAST
Press the CONT/DIM key, and then rotate the J-DIAL clockwise or counter-
clockwise to change the display contrast.
4.9 SETTING DIMMER
By pressing the CONT/DIM key, the back light for the LCD and the panel
illumination can be varied in intensity. This function has only the two settings
“ON” and “OFF”.
OPERATION
Increasing the SEA CLUTTER control effectively diminishes the
radar’s sensitivity. SEA CLUTTER should never be advanced to
the point where it obliterates all returns from waves, since this
setting could prevent the detection of nearby targets, especially
small wood/grp boats and yachts approaching head-on.
CAUTION
26
4.10 SETTING 1/4 OFFSET
By pressing the OFFSET key, the display is offset downwards by 1/4 radius,
expanding the display area in front of the vessel. Press the key a second time to
return the display to normal.
4.11 RANGE MEASUREMENT
(1) Count the number of range scale rings in use between the center of the
screen and the ring preceding the target. Add to this distance an estimate of
the distance between this nearest ring and the inner edge of the target.
(2) Using VRM
Press the EBL/VRM key.
If EBL is highlighted, press and hold the EBL/VRM key to change to VRM
mode and activate the split-line VRM ring.
Rotate the J-DIAL clockwise to expand the VRM ring and increase its range.
To lessen the indicated range, rotate the dial in an anti-clockwise direction. The
actual target distance, in nautical miles, from the ship appears on the center top
of the screen in.
To turn off the VRM, press the EBL/VRM key while VRM is highlighted.

(3) Using cursor
Press the JOYSTICK to make the cross cursor appear on the screen. The
cross mark can be moved any direction by using the JOYSTICK. The range
and bearing will be displayed at the lower right corner on the display.
4.12 BEARING MEASUREMENT
(1) Using the bearing scale
Using the bearing scale on the screen, visually estimate a line from the cen-
ter of the display (ship’s position) projected through the center of the target,
to reach the bearing scale around the perimeter of the display. The bearing
which you obtain is the terget’s relative bearing in degrees.
(2) Using EBL
Press the EBL/VRM key.
If VRM is highlighted, press and hold the EBL/VRM key to change to EBL
mode.
Rotate the J-DIAL clockwise or counterclockwise to move the electronic bear-
ing line to cut the center of the target. The target bearing (in degrees relative to
the ship) then appears at the top center of the screen. The bearing may be dis-
played in relative “R”, true or magnetic “M” depending on the menu selection
and what other equipment is interfaced to the rader.
To turn off the EBL, press the EBL/VRM key while EBL is highlighted.

4.14 SETTING GUARD
The guard zone alarm is effective for alerting the operator to targets approach-
ing his own ship. An alarm is sounded when any (apparent) target returning an
echo above the noise threshold is detected. If sea clutter, or other incidental
echoes trip the alarm, adjust the gain control and/or the sea clutter to avoid this
false alarming.
① Press the JOYSTICK to display the menu sheet.
② Select GUARD-ON and press the JOYSTICK. The radar display returns to
the normal video presentation.
Corsor appears on the PPI screen and shows the distance and the azimuth of
the Maker. It displays the distance help line and the azimuth help line of the
dotted line.
③ Move the cursor to the desired guard
zone start point using the JOYSTICK
and then press the JOYSTICK again.
The distance help line and the azimuth
help line of the dotted line are displayed
in the fixation in the start point posi-
tion at this time.
④ Next, move the cursor to the desired
guard zone Width point of your Guards
zone then press the JOYSTICK con-
trol.
It displays the distance help line of the

4.16 POSITION
Select this option to display the ship’s position (derived from a navaid input).
This function allows selection of ship’s position in latitude/longitude (LL), time
difference (TD) position, you may also display waypoint (WPT) as a LL posi-
tion in place of your own position data. This menu also removes this data from
display. To highlight the required sub-function, move the cursor to it with the
JOYSTICK, then press JOYSTICK to activate it.
4.17 WAYPOINT
If the radar is interfaced with a LORAN or GPS with the necessary data output,
a waypoint symbol can be made to appear on the radar screen by activating the
WAYPOINT function in the DISPLAY menu. Numeric data, showing the
waypoint’s bearing, range, and time-to-go appear at the bottom right corner on
the screen.
4.18 SELECTION OF DATA FORMATS
This function selects the units and formats for the SHM, EBL, CURSOR and
WAYPOINT data.
It can be displayed in degrees True (T) or magnetic (M) and is indicated by
these letters on screen. The Ship’s Head Marker is always displayed as zero
degrees.
4.19 TRAIL
This feature allows the operator to see the past history of target movement as an
after-glow, or trail behind moving targets. The “glow-time” of these “trails”
and - hence - the amount of display time which they occupy, can be set to
“short” or “long”.
OPERATION
31
4.20 TARGET EXPANSION
Target expand mode can be set to “on” or “off”. When “on”, this function in-
creases the size of the displayed images to make small targets appear larger and
easier to view on screen. When active,“EXP” is highlighted in the upper left
area of the screen.
4.21 INTERFERENCE REJECTION
OPERATION
Interference Rejection (IR) mode can be set to “on” or “off”. The IR reduces
“noise” on the display caused by other radars. When active, the “IR” is high-
lighted at the upper left of the screen. If you are navigating in a port area ser-
viced by a RACON, you should turn off the IR mode in order to see the RA-
CON signals clearly.
4.22 DISPLAY MODE
Targets can be displayed in black on a white background, or vice versa.
4.23 PLANNED-TX MODE
The PLANNED-TX mode allows the operator to program the radar automati-
cally to transmit for a pre-determined length of time, followed by a stand-by
period.
This maintains a radar watch whilst reducing the power consumption experi-
enced during full transmit operation. In PLANNED-TX mode press the STBY/
OFF key and the radar will return to its normal operating mode.
If you’ll watch the RADAR BEACON and the SART, set the pro-
cess as follows.

4.26 DISPLAY OF RADAR TRANSPONDER
SART (Search and Rescur Radar Transponder) is life preserving device ap-
proved by GMDSS which is used for locating survivors in the event of a disas-
ter or distress. SART operates in the 9 GHz frequency band. When it receives a
radar signal (interrogating radio wave) of 9 GHz transmitted by a rescue ship or
aircraft radar, SART transmits a series of respouse signals to the searchers to
indicate the distress position.
In order to see the SART or radar beacon mark on the radar screen.
① RANGE SCALE : Select 6 or 12 nm.
② SEA : Set to minimum.
③ TUNE : DETUNED to reduce the clutter.
④ IR : Set IR OFF.
OPERATION
When above settings ① to ④ are made to display SART signals, objects around the own
ship will not appear on the radar screen, so perform thorough visual monitoring of the sea
area around the own ship to avoid any collision or stranding.
Further, when more than one radar systems are mounted, while using a 9 GHz band radar
for searching SART signals, be sure to use another radar as an ordinary radar to perform
monitoring of objects around the own ship to avoid any collision, check of the position of
the own ship to avoid any stranding, and so on.
Need to retune the set for normal operation on completeion.

SECTION 5
The purpose of this section is to provide instructions for the service technician.
The RADAR 1000 MK2 is designed to provide long periods of trouble free
operation. However, environmental and other factors may require this equip-
ment to be periodically serviced.
MAINTENANCE
WARNING
This radar equipment contains high voltage. Adjustments re-
quire specialized service procedures and tools only available to
qualified service technicians. The layman should never remove
the radar unit cover, nor attempt to service this equipment. When
servicing this equipment, it is important that the technician com-
plies with all safety precautions set forth in this manual.
The high voltage can cause severe personal injury.
5.1 PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE
Continuous satisfactory operation of the radar depends on how well it is treated.
The following maintenance tips will save you time and money and will help to
avoid equipment failure.
1. Always keep the equipment as clean as possible. Remove immediately dirt,
dust, or spray from the display and from the scanner from time to time.
These units are “water resistant”, but not “water proof”. Do not immerse.
2. During routine ship’s maintenance, inspect the radar system for the follow-
ing points:
(1) Check all hardware for tightness.
MAINTENANCE
35
(2) Check for any evidence of corrosion in the scanner unit and display unit,
or their cables and connecotrs. Clean as required.
(3) Check that the cable connector is secure.
5.2 CLEANING (MONTHLY INTERVALS)
Wash the exterior of the scanner with fresh water, but do not immerse the unit.
A heavy deposit of dirt, or caked salt on the surface of the scanner may cause a
considerable drop in the radar performance. Clean the face of the display unit
with a clean, soft, lint-free cloth, slightly dampened with fresh water.
5.3 LCD FILTER SURFACE CLEANING
In time, the surface of the LCD FILTER (screen) may accumulate a film of
contaminants, which tend to dim the picture. A good glass cleaner and a soft
cloth or towel can be used to clean the LCD display, the keyboard and the
display cabinet.
5.4 FUSE
A fuse seldom blows without some cause. Even if a fuse is replaced and it does
not immediately blow again, it may still be necessary to make further checks on
its associated circuits. If necessary, replace the 5A fuse (Normal-brow type) in
the power cable.
MAINTENANCE
36
SECTION 6
To verify ownership and warranty registration, you should take a few minutes
to fill out your warranty registration card in the front of the manual. It is very
important that you take time to fill out this card.
