KRA-1009
Designed for use with KP and KM Onwa chart plotters
This is the latest Radome product from Onwa Marine. Smaller (50cm) and lighter (8.8K) than the KRA-1007 yet returning a similar performance. This is particularly suitable for a smaller vessel and for mast mounting on yachts. An innovation on this model is a variable speed antenna having a fast 48 rpm rotation for improved image at very close up range and a slower (36rpm and 24rpm) for medium and long distance ranges. Onwa have been reluctant to offer a smaller Radome until now as a smaller antenna length inevitably results in a larger horizontal beam width (focus) but the KRA-1009 achieves a very good 5 degrees – better than most similar sized domes produced for the leisure and small commercial market.
KRA-1009 can be ordered with a 15 metre cable (longer is possible) or with a built in wi-fi transmitter.
If using as a cable connection to a KP1299 or KM8 or KM12 plotter then connection is simplicity itself by using the network cable from the Radome directly into the plotter’s OneNet network port (via a USB adaptor for KP1299 series), KM models are a direct network connection. Using wi-fi, a router is needed at the plotter end to convert the wi-fi to OneNet.
