Detection threshold (DT)

setting in steps of 2 dB until the

interference disappears.

: 9

– If you switch the interference filter ON, you may change

the level to 8.

AGC

: OFF

Manual gain

: 20 dB

Max shooting speed

: 1 kn

– In order to maintain best possible reception during the

shooting you may increase this setting to 5 kn.
