Main menu
The
Main
menu is located at the top of the menu structure. It offers the most common
functions for efficient use of the SN90. Unless you hide the entire menu system, the
Main
menu is visible at all times, even if you close the secondary menus.
How to open
By default, the
Main
menu is open. It is placed on the
right side of the SN90 presentation.
Description
Only brief descriptions are provided. For detailed
information about each function and dialog box, refer
to the SN90
Reference manual or the context sensitive
on-line help.
Tip
If you do not need to use the menu system, you can hide it. This allows more space for
the SN90 presentation.
Use
Menu
on the top bar to hide or show the menu.
When the menu system is hidden, it appears temporarily on the left or right
hand side of the screen if you move the cursor to that position.
Below the
Main
menu you find the icons for opening (and closing) the secondary menus.
Select an icon to open the relevant menu, and reselect the icon to close the menu.

User Settings
The
User Settings
dialog box allows you to save the current user settings (your current
selection of operational parameters), and to retrieve factory or previously saved user
settings.
•
Range
The
Range
function allows you to specify the maximum distance from the transducer
to the outer edge of the sonar beam. The range value shown and selected is by default
only applied to the currently selected view.
•
Gain
The purpose of the
Gain
function is to adjust the echo level in the SN90 presentations.
By adjusting the gain you can control how much amplification the SN90 applies
to the received echoes. The setting is by default only applied to currently selected
echogram. It is identified with a thick border.
•
Tilt
The
Tilt
function allows you to control the vertical angle of the sonar beams.
