1.36 Target Trails
The trails of the radar echoes of targets can be displayed
in the form of synthetic afterglow. Target trails are shown
either relative or true and can be sea or ground stabi-
lized. True motion trails require a compass signal, and
position and speed data. When the range is changed,
trails are continued for targets which were already dis-
played in the previous range. Newly detected targets
have no trail when first detected.
1.36.1 True or relative trails
You can display echo trails in true or relative motion.
Relative trails show relative movements between targets
and own ship. True motion trails present true target
movements in accordance with their over-the-ground
speeds and courses.
