Target Marker Export dialog box
The Target Marker function is primarily used for remotely operated vehicle (ROV)
navigation. Third-party ROV software can use the time and location information to
steer the ROV toward the target.
How to open
This dialog box is opened from the
Display
menu.
Description
You can place a marker on a target
of interest in the sonar view. This
marker is stamped with both time and
location details. You can export this
time and location information to a
serial port (or UDP port 20004).
