Thehsb2(PLUS)seriesPathfinderRadaror Pathfinder Radar/Chartplotter
comprises the 7" LCD displayunit, scanner unit and associatedcables. The
RC520 PLUS Chartplotter cannot beconnected to the scanner unit.
Display Unit
Thehsb2(PLUS) series display unitis waterproof to CFR46 andcan be
installed either aboveor below deck.
Theunitincludes:
• 7" LCD PLUS display
• Trackpad
• Elevendedicated(labeled)controlkeys
• Four soft keys (unlabeled) whose functionality changes
• ThePathfinderChartplotterer and combinedPathfinderRadar/Chartplot-
ter include two slots for the C-MAP NT®chartcards
Thedisplayandkeys canbe illuminatedfornight-timeuse.
Scanner
Thehsb2series Pathfinder Radar is supplied with ascanner unitwhich
illuminatestargets with microwave energy andthen collects the returns from
those targets.The scanner includes a sensitive low-noise front endreceiver,
and a variety of clutter attenuation controls to maintain target resolution.

Introduction to hsb2Systems
It ispossible to connect upto ten hsb2(PLUS) series LCD or CRT displays
(dependenton cablelengths) anda scannerunittoprovidean integrated
system. The system may include existing HSB display units thathave been
suitablyupgraded-contactyour authorizedRaymarinedealerforupgradekit
details.
Thehsb2(High Speed Bus) connectionenables transfer ofdata between
compatible units. For example, radar datais transferredfrom the radar(the

Set Up Options
Set up options allow you to choose what is displayed, how it is displayed
(including language and units), bearingmode andhow the display operates
withother hsb2units. You can view the cursor position and a variety of data
from otherequipment, e.g.speed, heading, depth, wind and tideinformation
in a set of user-selectable data boxes.For systems with an autopilot, when the
statusand locked headinginformation changethe new data canbe displayed.
Display options are provided in System Set Up, described in Chapter 7.
ScreenPresentation Options,described inChapter 2allowyou toswitchthe
