| "3.1 Power On/Off | |
| The Power On/Off button (A) provides power to the system and restores default settings. When button is held down for at least one second, the display will perform a system check to determine that the DF-101 is functioning properly. While it is performing this check, all LEDs will illuminate. After the system check is complete, the only remaining illuminated LEDs will be the Power On LED (B), the Speaker On/Off LED and the Numeric Bearing Indicator (K) will display “---“. Note: the illuminated Speaker On/Off LED indicates the speaker is off. Press the Speaker On/Off button to turn on the speaker. Check to ensure the Warning LED (I) is not illuminated; if the Warning LED is illuminated, service is required. To turn the direction finder off, hold down Power button (A) for at least one second; all LEDs will extinguish. | |
| 3.2 Speaker | |
| The speaker (L) provides the audible indication of the received distress signal. The Speaker On/Off button (F) toggles the speaker on and off. When the Speaker On/Off LED (G) is illuminated, the speaker is off. | |
| 3.3 Clear | |
| Clear (H) is used to clear the DF-101 internal data used to calculate bearing; it resets to an un-averaged bearing value. Clear the display by depressing the Squelch decrease button (D) and Dim button (E) simultaneously. When the data is cleared, the bearing LEDs will illuminate in the same pattern as when the unit is first powered on. | |
| 3.4 Squelch | |
| Squelch is used to filter undesired signals that may be present at or near 121.5 MHz. These signals are typically found in high traffic areas such as shipping channels, airport flight paths, and populated areas. It is also used to reduce interference noise from own ship RF emissions. Increasing squelch will cause a decrease in range of the DF. Therefore it is recommended that the squelch be decreased when operating away from high traffic areas in order to maximize system range. | |
| Changing the squelch level: Press and hold the “Squelch +” button (C) or the “Squelch –“ button (D) to enter squelch mode and increase/decrease the squelch level. While in squelch mode, a squelch value will be displayed on the numeric bearing indicator (K) as well as on the LED bearing indicators (M). Values for squelch are 0-360. Release squelch increase/decrease button when desired squelch level is achieved. The DF will return to bearing display mode five seconds after release of button. | |
| 3.5 Dim | |
| The display dimmer button (E) enables the user to dim the display LEDs. The display has 3 levels of illumination. Push the button to decrease the illumination. | |
| 3.6 Signal Strength | |
| The signal strength indicator LEDs (J) indicate the received signal strength on a graduated scale from 0 to 6 (0 indicating weak/no signal and 6 indicating strong signal). | |

| "1. Change the range settings in 50 meter increments to see how the Range setting changes the sonar image. If the vessel is moored in a confined area, experimenting with the longer range values may not be possible or helpful. | |
| 2. After trying various rage settings, select the shortest range that includes at least one individual, well distinguished target within the last range ring. A range setting of 100 to 200 meters is optimal, but shorter ranges will be acceptable for experimenting with the settings. | |
| 3. After the best range is chosen, adjust the gain settings to determine if a less cluttered screen with a stronger sonar image can be achieved. | |
| 4. Write down or record the range and gain values that work best and use these settings for the next training exercise. ",Operate range settings of the Wesmar Searchlight Sonar | |
| "1. Adjust the sonar tilt up to +1⁰. If there is an individual target, such as a piling, in view, note any changes in the image of that target. | |
| 2. Adjust the sonar tilt up to +2⁰. Again make a mental note of the image size of the fixed target. | |
| 3. Keep adjusting the tilt angle up. As the tilt is adjusted up, more and more clutter should appear in the screen as a result of the sonar pulse contacting the surface. If the surface is very rough, the surface clutter will appear when the sonar is tilted up a few degrees. Typically, the rougher the surface, the greater the clutter. | |
| 4. As you tilt up, the surface clutter will first be visible around the longer range rings and move in closer to the sonar as the tilt values are increased. On rare occasions when the water’s surface is very smooth there may not be any clutter caused by the surface. As you tilt the sonar up, the screen may become blacker and targets will disappear. | |
| 5. After tilting the sonar up several degrees, return the tilt to 0 and repeat the same process except tilt the sonar down. | |
| 6. As you tilt the sonar down, note the change in target appearance and the effect on the sea bed. Continuing to tilt down will result in the screen becoming redder as the sonar is completely focused on the sea bed. ",Operate tilt settings of the Wesmar Searchlight Sonar | |
| "1. To experiment with pulse settings, it is best to scan the sonar back and forth across an individual target if possible. This can be done by selecting sector, choosing 90⁰, and rotating the bearing knob so the bearing line is in the middle of the target. The bearing knob will automatically adjust the Center setting so the middle of the sector is centered on the bearing line. Alternatively, Center can be selected in the main sonar menu and the sector can be manually centered by adjusting the Center value until the target is in the center of the sector. If Figure 5‐6, Sector Selection an individual target is not available, set the sonar to scan a 90⁰ or 180⁰ sector. | |
| 2. Next, select the Sonar Sub‐menu and set the pulse on 3%. After the sonar scans across the target a few times, select the next highest pulse setting. | |
| 3. Continue to move through the pulse settings and mentally note the effect that changes in pulse length have on the target. The longer the pulse, the greater period of time the target is enveloped by the sound energy. Because of the longer duration exposure to the sound pulse wave, more sound energy is reflected and returned to the sonar. As a result, longer pulse widths tend to make the target present larger on the sonar display. | |
| 4. Continue to adjust the pulse width up in value. As pulse lengths are increased, especially in shallow water, the sonar display may become quickly cluttered. Because longer pulse widths increase the length of time the pulse is transmitted, adding more sound in a noisy shallow water environment can require that the gain setting to be lowered longer pulse widths. | |
| 5. Return the Pulse setting back to a value the provided a good sonar image. After that, select the next highest setting. Adjust the gains to achieve the best sonar image. If a good sonar image is achieved, then select the next highest value and readjust the gains. At the higher pulse width settings in shallow water, you will find that the adjustment range for the gains becomes small. With longer pulse widths one value increase in can cause the screen to become completely red. | |
| 6. After experimenting with the pulse widths, write down the pulse with settings and the gain settings if they are different than those previously used. ",Operate pulse settings of the Wesmar Searchlight Sonar | |
| "1. As in the Pulse exercise, find an individual target and set a 90° sector so the sonar can scan back and forth across the target. | |
| 2. Keep the Speed setting on 1. After the target is scanned a few times, select Speed setting 2. | |
| 3. After the target is scanned a few times, move to the next higher speed. Continue through the Speed settings and mentally note the appearance of the target at the various values. ",Operate speed settings of the Wesmar Searchlight Sonar | |
| "1. In the main sonar menu (see section 3.3), select Screen 2. This will bring up a split screen. The top of the screen shows a 180° forward scan and the bottom half of the screen will show a profile view of the seabed under the vessel. | |
| 2. Select the ↓↓↓Profile sub menu. | |
| 3. Set the ↓↓↓range setting to approximately 150% of the water depth. | |
| 4. Adjust the ↓↓↓ Profile Pulse, Gain, TVG and Power settings to the same values that achieved the best results in the previous exercises. The gain settings used for scanning around the vessel should provide a fair image of the bottom. | |
| 5. At dock, the seabed may only be one or two meters below the vessel. It should appear as a thick red line. If the image of the bottom is very thick, decrease the pulse and then decrease the power. If the seabed is coming in week, first increase the pulse followed by the power. The picture can be fine tuned by raising or lowering the gains if necessary. | |
| 6. For the profile, it is best to keep the scan Speed at 1 to maintain a high definition of the bottom. During typical operations, the range of the forward scan is much greater than the water depth. As a result, the Profiler range is relatively short and scan speed 1 is best to see small objects on the sea floor or changes in the bottom contour. | |
| 7. The scanning sector of the profile can be narrowed from 180° down to 11°. While scanning in a 180° sector, the Profiler provides a wide swath picture of the seabed. In profile mode, the view of the bottom is many times wider than that of most depth sounders. Depending on the range setting and water depth, this view can extend hundreds of meters to either side of the vessel. Because of this wide swath capability it is best to narrow the sector in deep water instead of increasing the scan speed. | |
| 8. Enhance, Limiter and Filter are addressed in detail in section 3.4 Sonar Sub Menu. These features are typically turned off and should only be utilized as described in above section. ",Operate profiler tool of the Wesmar Searchlight Sonar | |

| Please note the following guidelines when selecting and locating the AIS VHF antenna: | |
| ● The VHF antenna should be located as high as possible and positioned as far from other antennas as | |
| possible. | |
| ● The VHF antenna should have omnidirectional vertical polarization. | |
| ● Where possible the VHF antenna should be installed at least 3m (10ft) away from other transmitting | |
| radio, satellite and RADAR antennas. | |
| ● Ideally the AIS VHF antenna should be mounted directly above or below the ship’s primary VHF | |
| radiotelephone antenna, with no horizontal separation and with a minimum of 2m vertical separation. | |
| If it is located on the same horizontal level as other antennas, the distance apart should be at least | |
| 10m. Refer to Figure 41 for further guidance. | |
| ● The VHF antenna cable should be kept as short as possible to minimise signal loss. High quality, low | |
| loss coaxial cable appropriate to the installation location should be used. | |
| ● The VHF antenna cable should be terminated in a PL-259 co-axial connector for connection to the | |
| AIS transceiver. | |
| ● Any outdoor installed connectors in the antenna cables should be waterproof by design. | |
| ● Antenna cables should be installed in separate signal cable channels at least 10cm (4ins) away from | |
| power supply cables. Crossing of cables should be done at right angles and sharp bends in the | |
| antenna cables should be avoided. | |
| ● Connect the VHF antenna cable to the VHF connector on the AIS transceiver as shown in Figure 42.",Identify the installation procedure of the fa170 VHF antenna | |

| equipment as described in Table 3. There are three input ports for ship’s sensor data and three bidirectional | |
| ports for connection of display equipment such as Radar or electronic chart displays. It is recommended that | |
| an AIS compatible electronic charting system is connected to the transceiver for display of AIS targets. To | |
| comply with IMO regulations the AIS must be connected to speed over ground (SOG), course over ground | |
| (COG), heading, rate of turn (ROT) and position information sources. | |
| The three sensor ports are input only data ports for the connection of data from ships sensors. The four | |
| remaining ports are bi-directional high speed connections supporting data input and output from the AIS. These | |
| ports are suitable for connection to ECDIS, AIS enabled RADAR displays and Pilot equipment. | |
| All data input connections are optically isolated. | |
