Gain function
The purpose of the
Gain
function is to adjust the echo level in the display presentations. By
adjusting the gain you can control how much amplification the CS90 system applies to the
received echoes. The setting is by default only applied to the active view.
How to open
This function is opened from the
Main
menu.
Description
You can compare this gain setting with the volume control on your car radio. When the gain
is increased, the echoes will appear stronger. Weak echoes will be easier to see. However,
since you also increase the acoustic noise in the reception, the echo presentations will also
show this noise. Too much gain may therefore "distort" the presentation.
The setting is by default only applied to the active view. It is identified with a thick border.
Tip
You may wish to adjust the gain on all the views of the same type. To do this, click the middle
of the
Gain
button to open it, and select
Apply to all
.
Do not confuse this
Gain
setting with the
TVG
(Time Variable Gain) setting.
