using this dialog box. Check the

box to apply the correct
mounting offsets to your recording.

Orientation
This drop-down list allows you to select a number of pre-configured Sonar Head
orientations. Observe the animation to make sure your Sonar Head is facing in
the correct direction for the selected orientation. The orientation depends on
how you are using the Flexview. For example, a forward-facing orientation can
be used for obstacle avoidance on a remotely operated vehicle (ROV). If you
wish to create your own orientation, select
Custom , then enter in the precise
pitch, roll, and yaw angles of the Sonar Head position.
Tip
If images appear on the wrong side of the sonar view (for example, objects on
the right appear on the left), then select one of the “Inverted” orientations.
Rotators
Select the rotator you wish to configure from the Rotators list. You can see which
axis has been assigned to each rotator.
•
Radius
The radius offset is necessary if your Sonar Head is attached to the rotator with
an arm. The length of the arm can be entered as the radius.
