1. OPERATION

1.1 System Overview

The radar sensor transmits pulses of micro-

wave energy that bounce off any object in

their path. The object returns a tiny part of the

wave's energy to the radar sensor. Radar de-

termines the distance to a target by calculat-

ing the time difference between the trans-

mission of a radar signal and the reception of

the reflected echo. The bearing to a target

found by the radar is determined by the direc-

tion in which the antenna is pointing when it

emits an electronic pulse and then receives a

returning echo.

The radar sensor forwards the returning

echoes to the iOS terminal (iPhone, iPad), us-

ing its wireless LAN module. The radar appli-

cation in the iOS terminal displays the radar

echoes on the terminal’s display and provides

controls for adjustment of the radar picture.

1.2 How to Start, Stop

the System

Power the radar sensor to acti-

vate the system. Open your iPad

or iPhone terminal and click the

[Marine Radar] application icon

(see right figure).

The splash screen appears for a few mo-

ments, then the application tries to connect to

the radar sensor, which normally takes no

more than three seconds. If the connection is

successful, the [Preheating] display appears.

If the connection

failed, the window

shown right ap-

pears. Tap the

[Search again] but-

ton to try to connect

to the radar sensor. If you cannot connect to

the radar sensor, check for interfering objects

near the sensor and make sure the wireless

LAN function is enabled on your terminal.

The preheating stage, which warms the mag-

netron (the device responsible for transmitting

radar pulses), takes approx. 90 seconds. The

time remaining until the completion of the pre-

heating is counted down at the center of the

screen. After the completion of the preheat-

ing, the STBY display appears.

To deactivate the system, disconnect the ra-

dar sensor from the power source.

Note: To connect an iOS terminal to another

DRS4W, reset the application first.

General considerations:

• Do not apply paint, anti-corrosive sealant or contact spray to coating or plastic parts. Those items

contain solvents that can damage coating and plastic parts.

• The radar sensor has no power switch. Therefore, it is recommended that you connect the sensor

to a disconnecting device (circuit breaker, etc.) to control the power.

Sensor placement:

• The radar sensor uses the 2.4 GHz wireless LAN radio band to forward radar echoes to the iOS

terminal. Separate the sensor well away from products which also use this band (microwave

range, Bluetooth devices, etc.) to prevent mutual interference.

• Install the radar sensor on the hardtop, radar arch or on a mast on an appropriate platform. (For

sailboats, a “radome mount” is optionally available for fixing the sensor to a mast.) Place the sen-

sor where there is a good all-round view with, as far as possible, no part of the ship’s superstruc-

ture or rigging intercepting the scanning beam. Any obstruction will cause shadow and blind

sectors. Be sure there are no metallic objects near the antenna. See the next page for typical

placement on a sailboat and powerboat.

• Observe the wireless LAN communication range noted in the illustration on the next page.

• In order to reduce the chance of picking up electrical interference, avoid where possible routing

the power cable near other electrical equipment onboard. Also, avoid running the cable in parallel

with other power cables.

• Select a location that does not allow water to accumulate at the base of the sensor.

• A magnetic compass will be affected if the radar sensor is too close to the compass. Observe the

compass safe distances mentioned on page ii to prevent interference to a magnetic compass.

3. INSTALLATION

3.3 How to Install the

Radar Sensor

Determine the suitability of the mounting loca-

tion BEFORE permanently mounting the sen-

sor. Incoming and outgoing signals may

overlap one another depending on the shape

of the vessel, preventing communication be-

tween the terminal and the sensor. Set the

sensor on the selected location and connect

the sensor to the power source. Turn on the

sensor. Open the terminal, turn on the radar

application and try to connect the terminal to

the sensor (see section 3.4.1 for how to start

the system). If the connection is successful,

change the range to check if the sensor re-

ceives your command. Check that the picture

is updated with each sweep. Some trial and

error may be necessary to find a suitable loca-

tion.

Installation on a platform

1. Remove the mounting hardware at the

bottom of the radar sensor - four each of

hex bolts (M10u20), spring washers and

flat washers. Save the spring washers

and flat washers to use them to fasten the

radar sensor to the platform, at step 4. If

the thickness of the platform is 5 mm or

less, also save the bolts.

3. INSTALLATION

2. Construct a platform (steel or aluminum)

referring to the outline drawing and the

mounting template. Fasten the platform to

the mounting location. The holes in the

platform must be parallel with the fore and

aft line.

3. Put the radar sensor on the platform with

the bow mark (U) on sensor aligned with

the bow.

4. Use hex bolts*, flat washers and spring

washers (removed at step 1) to fasten the

radar sensor to the platform. The torque

for the bolts must be 19.6 to 24.5 N•m.

*See the figure below to determine bolt

length to use.

Note: NEVER handle, transport, or turn

the radome upside down unless the

4 large flat washers and bolts at the

bottom of the radome are securely in

place.

Since the transceiver inside the radome is

only taped to the bottom, the transceiver

can come loose, causing damage to the

RT unit and W-LAN antenna if the 4 bolts

and large flat washers are not in place

and secured. For this reason, NEVER

handle, transport, or turn the radome up-

side down unless the 4 bolts and large flat

washers are secured.

5. Connect the supplied power cable to the

sensor. Observe the guidelines for laying

the power cable shown on this page.

6. Connect the power cable to the power

source.

Guidelines for laying the power cable

• The connectors must not strike any part of

the vessel by wind, etc.

• The load applied to the connectors must

not be more than its own weight.
