Operation
MAGNIFY (Gate spreading)
The setting of the MAGNIFY function causes a spreading
of the gate over the entire display width. You can choose
the gate to be used for the magnify function.
– Select the function MAGNIFY.
– Use the right-hand rotary knob to set the function to
aGATE or bGATE if you want to spread the range of
gate A or B over the entire display range.
A-Scan (Setting the A-scan)
This function offers you several options for setting your
A-scan.
• stndard
Normal A-scan setting. The key effects a static
freeze.
• compare (A-scan comparison)
You can compare a current echo display with a
stored one. The display last stored using
– either
from the current application or from a stored data set
– is displayed in the background as a dotted line.

Note:
Read chapter 5.12 to learn how to load a saved data
set. As a restored data set is displayed with a frozen
A-scan, press the
key first.
• envelop (echo dynamics)
The echo envelope is shown as a dotted line addi-
tionally to the A-scan.
• peak b ( maximum display)
You can use this function to record and document
(as well as to save if required) the peaked, maximum
echo display. With the B gate active, the A-scan with
the highest echo amplitude (recording of maximum
display) is shown as a dotted line additionally to the
“live” A-scan when peaking an echo display (in B
gate). This A-scan becomes the statically frozen
A-scan by pressing the
key, and it can then be
evaluated accordingly.
