appears. This menu lets you move the zoom
window up or down in
one foot
increments by
pressing the arrow keys. Thus, you can move
the zoom window up towards the surface,
down to the bottom, or anywhere in between.
The window stays where you put it. It doesn’t

Typically, this occurs when you wish to see more detail, so you need to
increase the sensitivity. The procedure to adjust it is the same whether the
unit is in the automatic or manual mode.
