2.22 Guard Alarm

The guard alarm allows the operator to set the desired range and bearing for a guard zone.
When ships, islands, landmasses, etc. violate the guard zone, an audio alarm sounds and
the offending target blinks to call the operator’s attention.

CAUTION

The alarm should not be relied upon as the sole means for detecting possible collision situations.A/C SEA, A/C RAIN and GAIN controls should be properly adjusted to be sure the alarm system does not overlook target echoes.

How to set a guard alarm zone
The equipment then searches for targets inside the guard zone to determine guard alarm
type. If a target is found inside the guard zone, the guard zone type becomes an “Outward
guard alarm,” and any target exiting the guard zone will trigger the audio alarm. If no target
is found, the guard zone type becomes an “Inward guard alarm,” and any targets entering
the guard zone will trigger the audio alarm. The guard alarm type is shown as G1(G2) IN or
G1(G2) OUT.
