Button Options
The Mk2 Operating Panel is fitted with three
function buttons. The buttons are identified as
F1
,
F2
and
F3
. Each button can be assigned a dedicated
function. The three function buttons are grouped
with the
Screen Capture
button.
Under
Button Options
, assign one function to each
Fx
button on the Operating Panel. The following
functions can be assigned:
Auto Tilt
This is an "on/off" function. When
Auto Tilt
mode is activated the beam will automatically change its tilt angle for each
transmission ("ping"). The centre of the tilt sector is defined by the chosen tilt
angle just before the

mode is started. The chosen tilt sector is shown
on the tilt indicator in the
Horizontal
view using a shaded background. The
sector and step settings are made using the

function on the
Main

on the shortcut menu.

the echo presentation. The own ship marker is now regarded as an
