Picture Freeze
The rare event of Processor failure is indicated by non-operation of the trackerball, no update of screen data and
a frozen tune bar indicator. The radar picture may be updated, but plotting is not possible.
The display is to be switched OFF and ON again to reset the Processor.
ARPA Failure
The ARPA computer is protected by a watchdog circuit, which monitors the ARPA for correct operation.
In the unlikely event of computer failure, the Operator observes vector footprints becoming detached from
targets. If this occurs, reset the computer, by pressing the “Delete All Targets” pushbutton twice.
If the ARPA fails while running, an ARPA FAILURE message is indicated. If the ARPA fails to start, a TESTING
ARPA message remains on the screen after the initial self-test period of 10 seconds.

1This section provides an introduction to the Nucleus 3
Display systems.
2The Nucleus 3 Radar systems can be configured to
suit customer requirements, according to the quantity
and types of display, transmitter/receiver and Interswitch
unit used. Typical configurations are shown on the Figures
at the end of this Introduction.
3The comprehensive use of colour, provides an
optimum display of radar picture, selectable functions,
warnings, target information and Ownship navigation data.
4The Nucleus 3 5000 series equipment is designed for
use as a desk mounted display. It can also be mounted
on a pedestal base, for deck-mounting, if required. All
electronics including the display driver, system processor,
interface and ARPA (if fitted) are accessed via a removable
top panel.
5The Nucleus 3 6000 series equipment is designed for
use as either a deck mounted Console or a desk
mounted Display with a separate Processor cabinet. Display
driver electronics are accessed through a top panel, whilst all
other electronics including the system processor, interface
and ARPA (if fitted) are accessible via the front panel.
6The Nucleus 3 7000 series equipment features a
range of remote Flat Panel display options designed
for either console or desktop mounting
OPERATION
7Nucleus 3 colour Radar Displays utilise a unique
method of operation. The entire operation of the radar
(apart from power ON/OFF switching and degauss) is
controlled by using the trackerball and the three pushbutton
keys located on the specially designed ergonomic control
unit, featuring a contoured hand rest.
8The operation of the Nucleus 3 range of radars is
designed to be simple and intuitive. A cursor is moved
by the trackerball inside and outside the radar circle. When
the cursor is moved to be within the confines of a ‘Status Box’
(located outside the radar circle) the box is automatically
highlighted; pop-down boxes provide abbreviated
pushbutton functionality. Simultaneously, function options
are displayed as a labelled diagrammatic view of the three
pushbuttons in the ‘Pushbutton Selection Box’. The
functions are accessed by pressing the appropriate
pushbutton. The ‘Status Box’ changes to display the new
status and the cursor can then be moved back to the radar
circle or to another function box.
9When the cursor is inside the radar circle, the three
buttons are used for plotting targets, positioning
markers and mapping graphics. A diagrammatic labelled
view of the pushbutton functionality is displayed in the
pushbutton selection box.
10 Detailed Operating Information is provided in
Chapter 1.
PLOTTING AIDS
11 Three types of radar plotting are available throughout
the Nucleus 3 range;

tracking.
(2) Automatic Tracking Aid (ATA) - providing manual
acquisition and automatic tracking.
(3) Electronic Plotting Aid (EPA) System - for manual
plotting.
12 Radar Plotting Aids are described in Chapter 2.
MAPPING
13 The mapping facility has a capacity of 350kbytes used
in a flexible partition arrangement. Maps can be
ground stabilised in any mode using a reference target, or by
external position fixing systems (e.g. GPS).
14 The maps are stored on internal non-volatile Flash
memory.

DISPLAY FACILITIES
17 For information on how to select any facility on the
display, refer to Chapter 1 - Operating Information.
Range Scales
18 The PPI range scales are: 0.125nm, 0.25nm, 0.5nm,
0.75nm, 1.5nm, 3nm, 6nm, 12nm, 24nm, 48nm and
96nm.
Screen Modes of Operation
19 The following modes of operation and presentation are
available for selection, depending on the type of
display installed:
(1) Relative Motion,
Relative Trails RM(R)
(2) True Motion,
True Trails TM(T)
(3) Relative Motion,
True Trails RM(T)
(4) Head Up.
(5) North Up.
(6) Course Up.
Options (True Motion and Relative Motion with True
Trails)
20 True Motion (True Trails), TM(T) is available - where
Ownship moves across the screen at a velocity
equivalent to the Ownship’s speed and heading.
21 Relative Motion (True Trails) mode offers relative
motion, fixed centred or off-centred Ownship’s
position, with true trails.
Offcentre
22 The display can be offcentred by up to 70%, on all
range scales, except 96nm.
Heading Line
23 The ship’s heading line and all other computer
generated graphics can be temporarily removed from
the radar display, to present the operator with a clear radar
only picture.
Variable Range Marker
24 The Variable Range Markers (VRM1 & VRM2) are
shown on the radar display as dashed rings (colour
coded; Green for VRM1 and Red for VRM2) and are
available over the entire radar range. The VRMs ranges are
displayed by an alphanumeric readout in a box (colour
coded; Green for VRM1 and Red for VRM2), located in the
lower left-hand side of the screen.
Electronic Bearing Line
25 The Electronic Bearing Lines (EBL1 & EBL2) are
shown on the radar display as lines colour coded;
(Green for EBL1 and Red for EBL2), emanating from
Ownship. The EBLs are True in North Up display mode and
Relative in Head Up mode. The bearings of the EBLs are
displayed as an alphanumeric readout in a box (colour
coded; Green for EBL1 and Red for EBL2), located beneath
the VRM box.
26 The EBL can be off-centred and the origin set to the
cursor position. This enables measurement of the
bearing of a target from a point other than the Ownship.
Signal Controls - Gain, Sea, Rain
27 The Gain facility sets the basic threshold level of the
radar video displayed on the screen. The Sea facility
reduces sea clutter returns and features an "AUTO"
(automatic) option. The Rain facility reduces clutter from
rain, snow and hail precipitation.
Ownship and Plotting Parameters
28 Ownship and Plotting parameters are displayed in a
box (located on the right-hand side of the screen)
which contains Gyro, Heading, Speed, Set & Drift Input,
Vector, Trails, CPA and TCPA.
Target Data
29 Target data is displayed on demand, for any selected
tracked target, in a box located beneath the Ownship
and Plotting parameter data box.
Parallel Index Lines
30 Four colour-coded Parallel Index Lines are provided
to enable the operator to navigate in difficult areas
(e.g. an estuary). Each line is independent.
