SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS  
CAUTION  
No one navigational aid should be relied exclusively for the safety of  
vessel and crew. The navigator has the responsibility to check all aids  
available to confirm position. Electronic aids are not a substitute for  
basic navigational principles and common sense.  
Digital charts cannot replace official nautical charts.  
Digital charts are intended as an aid to navigation. Position should always  
be checked against nautical charts, as well as other aids to navigation.  
Digital charts cannot replace the radar.  
Digital charts can only show own ship's position relative to a chart feature  
(coastline, lighthouse, etc.); they cannot show other vessels, as does the  
radar. Digital charts can never replace the radar.  
Handle chart/memory cards carefully.  
The chart and memory cards are weak against heat and magnetic material.  
Keep cards away from heat source.  
Keep cards away from magnets and magnetic material.  
Replace cards in their protective cases after use.

1. RADAR MAP  
A radar map is a combination map lines and symbols whereby the user can  
define and input the navigation data, route planning and monitoring data.  
The radar map has the capacity of 1,500 points of mark and line. The map data  
can be memorized to facilitate the repeated use on the routine navigation area.  
The user can create a radar map on-real time while using the radar for  
navigation or at leisure time at anchor or while the radar is not being used. Place  
of a map can be made for any waterways apart from the actual own ship  
location.  
Note: Own ship position display requires an input from radionavigational  
equipment such as a GPS receiver in accordance with the format as  
defined by IEC 61162-1.

3. MAINTENANCE (FOR TECHNICIANS)  
3.2  
Replacement of Battery on RP Board  
The RP Board is mounted in the display unit of the FR-2805 series radars. For  
general maintenance and trouble shooting, therefore, refer to radar’s operator’s  
manual. The only maintenance required for the RP-25 is the replacement of the  
battery on the RP-Board.  
A lithium battery on the RP Board preserves RP-25 data when power is off. The  
life of the battery is about three years. When the radar self-test shows low  
battery voltage, have the battery replaced at your earliest convenience, so that  
important data will not be lost.  
Before replacing the battery, save data to a RAM card, if necessary.  
CAUTION  
DANGER  
Be sure the battery is inserted "plus" side  
up to prevent damage to card and equipment.  
Do not open the equipment.  
High voltage which can shock, burn or  
cause death exists inside the equipment.  
Do not work inside the equipment unless  
familiar with electrical circuits.  
JP1  
Turn off the power at the mains  
switchboard before begining the  
installation.  
Post a sign near the switch to indicate  
it should not be turned on while the  
equipment is being installed.  
Lithium  
battery  
Fire, electrical shock or serious injury  
can result if the power is left on or is  
applied while the equipment is being  
installed.  
Name  
Type  
Code No.  
Lithium battery  
ER3S  
000-127-759  
1. Turn the radar off, and then dismount the RP Board from the display unit.  
Lay the board on insulating materials.  
2. Cut jumper wire JP1. This cuts off the battery circuit.  
3. Replace battery.  
4. Attach jumper wire JP1.  
5. Remount the RP Board to the display unit.
