Range Rings on PPI

Front Runner · 04-11-07, 07:53 AM

Has anyone found a way to turn on the range rings on the radar PPI?

you can change the range with the buttons at the bottom of the radar station for both radars.

Yes, I know how to change the range, I'm just trying to activate the range rings, like in Neal's

Radar pips turn into smilies when you hit the SH4 screen print keys, Ctrl F11

See, his PPI has Range Rings and bearing marks.
My PPI does not show range rings or bearing marks.

Did you try clicking the big ugly grey knobs below the radar screen? I think that is what does it.

Rumor has it that it depends on the boat your using as to whether or not the radar and the sonar works.

At this time with both the S class and the Porpoise class I have not been able to get the radar to work with either.

Yes, I have tried that. They change the range and turn the sweep on and off but do not activated range rings and bearing marks.

I tried that, nothing. My PPI has the word "Range" in green on the scope face with a number, either 40,000 or 80,000, like this Range: 40,000.

Clicking the button changes the numeral from 40,000 to 80,000 but does not show range rings.
