Description
Under normal use, the ST90 system presents several different echoes simultaneously. Some
of these are clearly more interesting than others. It can be a challenging task to tell these
echoes apart. It can also be hard to keep track of the different echoes as both echoes and
your own vessel move. To ease the identification of these echoes you can use
markers . Each
marker is identified with its geographical location. If you have placed markers on several
echoes to make them objects, you can select one of these and give it
priority status.
In this context, the phrase marker is used to identify a visual symbol placed in the
display presentation. Placing a marker on an echo identifies the echo as "interesting". It
is regarded as an
object that you can act upon.
Further classification of this echo as a target must be done manually.
