How to Use the Train Controls

The 

TRAIN

 knob selects the direction (bearing) in which the scan beam is output. The 

actual beam changes depending on the display mode currently in use.

•  Horizontal display mode: Select the center direction (bearing) for the scanning 

beam.

•  Vertical display mode: Select the bearing for the scanning beam.

•  Echo sounder display mode: Select the direction for the sounding beam.

1.11.1

How to change the train direction

Typically, the train moves in a clockwise direction. On occasions where you want to 
reconfirm echoes, you can reverse the train direction.

To reverse the train direction, press the 

REVERSE

 button (

).

Each time the button is pressed, the indication "REVERSE" appears for approximately 
three seconds at the top of the echo display area, and the train is reversed.

Note: 

The train reverse function is not available for Echo Sounder mode.

1.11.2

Train controls for horizontal mode

You can change the center direction, or bearing, for the horizontal scanning beam. If 
you have a scanning sector set (see section 1.13), the center of the sector moves ac-
cording to the train setting.

The train bearing moves in 6° steps and can be adjusted in the full 360° spectrum.

The train indicator (solid circle) moves to show the bearing graphically. The bearing 
indication at the top-left of the screen shows the bearing in degrees.

To increase the bearing, turn the 

TRAIN

 knob clockwise.

To decrease the bearing, turn the 

TRAIN

 knob counter-clockwise.
