Detailed description
Garmin radar GMR Fantom 24x · white
Garmin part number: 010-02585-00 · EAN: 0753759282233
A marine radar displays echoes from coastlines, vessels, obstacles and precipitation on a compatible Garmin chartplotter. This model adds another source of information at the helm, allowing the radar picture to be assessed alongside charts and direct observation.
GMR Fantom 24x · 24″ · 50 W · 48 NM. Radome included; display and heading sensor not included.
Features for interpreting your surroundings
Solid-state technology and pulse compression combine close-range detection with a maximum range of 48 nautical miles. MotionScope uses the Doppler effect to colour-code targets approaching or moving away. A compact radome protects the antenna, with rotation up to 60 rpm depending on settings. Power-save and timed-transmit modes help manage electrical demand. Features include dual range, target-size adjustment, Auto Bird Gain, echo trails, dynamic automatic gain and a dynamic sea filter. A guard zone alerts you to echoes within a configured area, while VRM and EBL support range and bearing measurements.

Networking and installation
A compatible Garmin chartplotter is required and sold separately. Check the display model, software version and network architecture before installation; an Ethernet connector alone does not guarantee compatibility. Chart overlay and MARPA tracking require suitable data and sensors. A heading sensor and any accessories not listed in the package must be purchased separately. Installation must follow the manufacturer’s safety distances and instructions, using a secure mounting surface, protected power supply and appropriate cable routing.
Use and selection
Maximum ranges are nominal figures. Mounting height, target size and material, sea state and weather affect actual detection. Transmit power and electrical consumption are different measurements. Radar complements a proper lookout and established navigation practices, and its echoes must be interpreted in context. Before installation, check the antenna sweep area or radome diameter, the strength of the mounting structure and access to the connections.
