RealVü Sonar Settings
From the RealVü 3D sonar view, press
MENU
.
Gain
: Controls the level of detail and noise shown on the sonar screen.
If you want to see the highest intensity signal returns on the screen, you
can lower the gain to remove lower intensity returns and noise. If you
want to see all return information, you can increase the gain to see more
information on the screen. This also increases noise, and can make it
more difficult to recognize actual returns.
Palette Depth
: Adjusts the depth of the color key on the side of the 3D view.
The color key allows a visual reference of the depth of detected objects
using different colors.
Range
: Adjusts the range of the depth scale.
Allowing the device to adjust the range automatically keeps the bottom
within the lower portion of the sonar screen, and can be useful for tracking
a bottom that has minimal or moderate terrain changes.
Manually adjusting the range enables you to view a specified range, which
can be useful for tracking a bottom that has large terrain changes, such
as a drop-offs or cliffs. The bottom can appear on the screen as long as it
appears within the range you have set.
Sweep Speed
: Adjusts how quickly the tranducer sweeps back and forth.
A faster sweep rate creates a less detailed image, but the screen
refreshes faster. A slower sweep rate creates a more detailed image, but
the screen refreshes more slowly.
NOTE:
This feature is not available for the RealVü 3D Historical sonar
view.
Transmit
: Stops the transducer from transmitting.
Pause Sonar
: Pauses the sonar view.
