How to define echo sounder range
There are two parameters for range:
•
Range start
: This is the upper depth from which the echo
sounder will provide its presentation.
•
Range
: This is the vertical depth range for the echo sounder.
The PI32 also offers a
Phased range
function, where the
Range
is fixed, but the
Range start
is modified.
The two parameters in question are located at the top of the
parameter list.
The
Range
and
Range start
parameters can be manually
controlled from the
Presentation setup
dialogue. The
Range
start
is a fixed value. It is normally set to 0 meters, and if you
wish to use another value, you must define this manually in the
Presentation setup
dialogue.
