M-Mode Controls (cont’d)

Since M-Mode is basically a single B-Mode scan vector displayed over time, basic controls that affect the B-Mode display
also affect the M-Mode display.  See 

Quick Start 12 for comments on these controls.

TGC and Depth affect both the M-Mode and B-Mode displays.

If the scan area size is reduced and the position changed, the M-Mode cursor will follow the position change to stay within
the displayed scan area.

The Dual Format keys work the same as in dual B-Mode, but both B-Mode and M-Mode are displayed on the left and right
sides of the screen.

The keyboard controls that effect M-Mode are as follows:

1.

B/M Gain—Controls the gain of the displayed timeline
echoes.  To increase/decrease, turn the control clockwise/
counterclockwise.

2.

M/D Cursor—Assigns trackball control to the M-Mode
cursor.

3.

Zoom—Enables real-time or freeze zoom function.
