• PSA/—Minimum soundpath distance of all
beams in scan that are currently captured by
Gate A
• PPA/—Minimum projection distance of all
beams in scan that are currently captured by
Gate A
• PDA/—Minimum material depth of all beams
in scan that are currently captured by Gate A
• PZA/—Minimum uncorrected depth of all
beams in scan that are currently captured by
Gate A
• PSB/—Minimum soundpath distance of all
beams in scan that are currently captured by
Gate B
• PPB/—Minimum projection distance of all
beams in scan that are currently captured by
Gate B
• PDB^—Minimum material depth of all beams in
scan that are currently captured by Gate B
• PZB/—Minimum uncorrected depth of all
beams in scan that are currently captured by
Gate B
• SA^—Uncorrected Sound-Path distance or
duration represented by the highest echo to cross
A-Gate in the beam selected by the beam cursor.
• SA/—Uncorrected Sound-Path distance or
duration represented by the flank echo to cross
A-Gate in the beam selected by the beam cursor.
• SBA—Sound-Path distance or duration
between the highest echo (in the beam selected)
to cross B-Gate and the highest echo (in the
beam selected) to cross A-Gate.
• PA^—Projection distance from the beam index
point (BIP) to the reflector represented by the
highest echo in A-Gate (in the beam selected
by the beam cursor). (see
Figure 3-3 )
• PA/—Projection distance from the beam index point
(BIP) to the reflector represented by the flank echo
in A-Gate (in the beam selected by the beam cur-
sor). (see
Figure 3-3 )
The IF Gate provides a reference point from which the
other gates are positioned, and provides a reference
from which the displayed data can be positioned. No
results are based on IF-Gate triggering.
