4.2 Connessione di alimentazione e dati

The Quantum 2 radar connects to your vessel's electrical system and a compatible Raymarine multifunction display (MFD) using the supplied 15-meter power and data cable. The unit operates on 12 Volts DC.

• Energia: Connect the power wires to a dedicated 12V DC circuit, ensuring proper fusing.
• Dati: The radar supports both Wi-Fi and hardwired Ethernet connections to your Raymarine MFD. For optimal performance and reliability, a hardwired connection is recommended.

Refer to the detailed installation guide provided with your MFD for specific wiring diagrams and network configuration.

5. Istruzioni per l'uso

The Quantum 2 radar is controlled via a compatible Raymarine multifunction display (MFD). Ensure your MFD software is up to date for full functionality.

5.1 Accensione/Spegnimento

The radar unit powers on automatically when the vessel's main power is supplied to its circuit. To power off, disconnect the power supply to the radar circuit.

5.2 Basic Radar Operation

1. Access Radar Application: On your MFD, select the Radar application from the home screen.
2. Trasmettere: Select the "Transmit" option to start the radar scanning.
3. Regolazione della portata: Use the MFD controls to adjust the radar range (up to 24 miles).
4. Gain/Clutter: Adjust gain and sea/rain clutter settings for optimal target detection in varying conditions.

5.3 Doppler Collision Avoidance

The Quantum 2's Doppler technology highlights moving radar contacts in different colors to indicate whether they are moving towards or away from your vessel. This feature significantly enhances collision avoidance awareness.

• Red Targets: Indicate targets moving towards your vessel (collision threat).
• Green Targets: Indicate targets moving away from your vessel.

Activate the Doppler mode from the radar application menu on your MFD.

5.4 Funzionalità avanzate

• Safety Sector: Define a safety zone around your vessel to receive alerts for targets entering this area.
• MARPA (Mini Automatic Radar Plotting Aid): Manually acquire and track up to 10 radar targets to calculate their course, speed, closest point of approach (CPA), and time to CPA (TCPA).
• Target Trails: Display historical paths of moving targets to visualize their movement patterns.

Consult your MFD's user manual for detailed instructions on configuring and utilizing these advanced radar features.

6. Manutenzione

The Raymarine Quantum 2 radar is designed for minimal maintenance. Regular inspection and cleaning will ensure its longevity and performance.

• Pulizia: Periodically clean the radar dome with fresh water and a soft cloth to remove salt spray, dirt, and bird droppings. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents.
• Ispezione dei cavi: Annually inspect the power and data cable for any signs of wear, corrosion, or damage. Ensure all connections are secure.
• Hardware di montaggio: Check mounting bolts and hardware for tightness and corrosion.
