Target tracking

The MFD is able to track and display various types of targets to improve situational awareness and collision avoidance. The types of targets which can be tracked are dependent on connected hardware and MFD configuration.

  • AIS targetsTarget tracking AISAIS targets — When a compatible AIS receiver or AIS transceiver is connected AIS targets can be tracked.

    For details on AIS targets refer to: AIS targets

  • Radar targetsTarget tracking RadarRadar targets — When a compatible Radar scanner is connected Radar targets can be tracked.
