Marking parameters
The user can select the contents to be marked.
Sound velocity setting
Sound velocity setting is classified into two types. The first one is manual
calculation of sound velocity. The other one is to realize real time sound
velocity capturing by access to the sound velocity instrument.
Manual calculation of sound velocity: Perform sound velocity by inputting
temperature, salinity and other parameters.
Access to sound velocimeter: The software can obtain real time sound
velocity by setting serial port parameters as well as adjusting the sound
velocimeter.
Scale setting
For scale setting, the users can select automatic scale or manual scale, as well
as adjust scale range and initial scale of the scaleplate.
Effective area: Setting up the effective areas can help the software to better
capture the correct depth. For example, if the known sounding range of the
measuring area is within 1-100m, the effective area can be set as 1-100.
Attention
: The scope of effective area shall not be too small. Too narrow
range may lead to echo capturing failure.
Draft parameters
should be set up every time at new project or reconnection of
transducer.
