KEY FEATURES & APPLICATIONS

Advanced Signal Processing: Features multi-level quantization, echo stretch, and echo averaging for superior target detection in heavy rain and sea clutter.

Target Tracking (TT/ARPA): Provides critical data for collision avoidance, including CPA (Closest Point of Approach) and TCPA (Time to CPA) for tracked targets.

Networkability: Up to four sets of FAR-21x7/28x7 radars can be interconnected via Ethernet (100 Base-TX) without the need for an external interswitch.

Customizable Operation: The RCU-014 Control Unit features a full keyboard and a high-precision trackball, with customizable function keys for one-touch access to specific radar modes.

Dual Guard Zones: Two independent guard zones can be set to alert the navigator of any incoming targets within a specific sector or distance.

Radar Map Overlay: Supports the creation of radar maps with up to 20,000 points, allowing operators to mark fairways, buoys, and navigational hazards directly on the screen.

Versatile Display Modes: Supports Head-up, Course-up, North-up, and True Motion (TM) orientations for different navigational requirements.

TYPICAL CONDITION (USED/REFURBISHED)

Standard Components: Usually includes the RPU-013 Processor, RCU-014 Keyboard, and the RSB-096 Gearbox with an X-Band radiator.

Refurbishment Notes: Used units are typically checked for magnetron life hours and gearbox seal integrity to ensure long-term performance in offshore environments.
