The vector originating from the target’s center indicates target course and speed.
The length of the vector increases relative to the target’s speed. One knot is
represented by a small mark on the vector. A course line can also be displayed
showing the target’s track.
When the Auto Search is activated during the Target Track mode, the tilt angle will
automatically follow the strongest fish echo. The upper and lower tilt angle limits can
be used to prevent tracking surface or bottom echoes The target tracking symbols
and data are displayed in a different colour.
Note: The Target Track and Lock option are not available at this time on the SL
35 Sonar and will be available in the near future.
