ICOM IC-MR570R

LCD Marine Radar

The ‘third eye”on your boat is bright, easy and reliable.

ICOM IC-MR570R

Remote Controller.

When it is dark, rainy and foggy or objects are too far away to see, 
the MR-570R acts like your “third eye”. The bright and clear LCD display and 
easy to operate key layout, always provides reliable information, even in critical situations. In the uncertain and unpridictable ocean, one thing you can count on is the MR-570R, will always help guide you where you want to go, safely and easily with powerful 4 kW output generating observations for up to 36 nautical miles.

Powerful 4kW output for 36 nautical miles observations.

The 60cm (2ft) radome scanner provides from 0.125 to 36 nautical miles of 
observation with the powerful 4kW magnetron. The scanner antenna rotates up to 48 times in a minute. This allows an efficient screen renewal for fast moving vessels.

High-contrast 5.7” LCD display.

The compact 5.7”display is convenient for pleasure boats or fast moving vessels, where space is at a premium. Set it on dashboard or hang it under the roof. Its QVGA (320x240 pixels) display clearly shows the raderechoes in 4 shades.

Rugged construction and easy installation.

The display unit is shielded tight to be water resitant equivalent to JIS 4 (except cables). The radome cover is made of AES resin for durability and is lightweight. It withstand the severe environment for many years. The system cables allow easy and flexible installation.

4 types of operating modes.

The true motion * mode provides easy recognition of your vessel action. It fixes the surroundings and moves your position on the screen according to your real movement. Also North-up, Course-up and Heading-up are available. 
* True motion requires additional bearing and position data.

2 EBL’s and 2 VRM’.

By having 2 EBL’s (Electronic Bearing Lines) and 2 VRM’s ( Variable Range Markers), this allows tracking of 2 targets simultaneously. Further more, advanced measuring such as the distance and bearing between 2 targets, relative speed and course of a target, and distance and course from a waypoint are available.

Waypoint indication.

When connected to a GPS or other navigation sytem, which have NMEA0183, N+1, Aux data format outputs, the waypoint indication is shown on the screen ( with ship’s position in Lon/Lat and distance to the point).

EPA and MOB.

The EPA* (Electrical Plotting Aid) allows you to plat 10 targets and forecast the courses with these vectors on the screen. The CPA (Closest Point Approach) and TCPA (Time to Closest Point Approach) alarm gives the audible warning when the targets come close to you. In addition,the MOB* (Man Overboard) point keeps the position on the screen if a crew member 
falls overboard. *EPA and MOB requires additional bearing and position data.

Power save function and standby mode.

For saving battery consumption, the power save function suspends the transmission 1 to 30 minutes. In that time, the display is turned off. And standby mode setting stops the transmission and shows the navigation data on the display.

And more features.

•Automatic tununing and automatic Gain.
•Rain clutter and automatic sea clutter.
•Switchable puls width to detect a small target.
•Off-center function allows you to shift the desired direction, useful for watching bow direction or coastline.
•Alarm zone setting emits a beep sound when an other ship or island comes into range or out of range.
•Interference reduction decreases the interference from other ships.
•Zoom function expands the targets two times to detect a small target.
•NMEA 0183 format output to connect a video plotter or computer.
•Stretch function enlarges the echo images.
