Working with Reflections
Basic Reflections Data
Reflections data is displayed on two panes accessed via the Tracking Button. The
Reflections pane contains a list of reflections that are visible to the scanner, and the Range,
Bearing and Brightness level of each:
The user is able to filter out unwanted reflections (see following sections) and can choose
whether to include rejected reflections in the list by means of the
Show / Hide Rejections
toggle button.
Range Filters
The Range Filters function on the Reflections pane allows the user to set minimum range.
Any reflection at a shorter range than the range threshold is not included in the list of
reflections nor displayed on the BEV. This mechanism is useful when unwanted reflections
cannot be eliminated by means of the dynamic blanking zone function alone. It can be
used at any time, even during tracking.
Range Filter Bar
Manual Power Control Bar
Filtering by Range
Allows the user to discard reflections that are closer than the threshold range. For example,
setting the range threshold to 35m will cause any reflections from less than 35m away to
be discarded. The range threshold can be adjusted between 5 and 70 metres by clicking
on the end of the filter bar marked '+' or '-' as required. A corresponding grey circle is
shown in the centre of the BEV.
Note:
The Dashboard needs to be in command mode to make any changes.
Power Control
Automatic power control should be sufficient for most operations, however there is the
option to take manual control. (see Power Control on page 43)
