2 Start the Measure function
3 Move the cursor towards the second measuring point
-
A line will be drawn from the first point to the cursor, and the distance will be
listed in the Information window
You can reset the measurement by pressing the
Tick
key.
When you press the
X
key the echosounder will resume to normal scrolling.
Pausing the echosounder
You can pause the sounder, allowing you to examine the sounder echoes. The function is
activated from “The Echosounder settings panel”, see later in this chapter.
This function is useful when you need to position a waypoint exactly on the echosounder
panel, and if you are using the cursor to measure a distance between 2 elements on the
image.
Recording the echosounder data
You can record echosounder data and save the file
internally in the NSO unit, or on to a Micro-SD card
inserted into the unit’s card reader.
The function is activated from “The echosounder settings
panel”, see later in this chapter.
The following options are available:
Bytes per sounding
Select how many bytes per second that are to be used when saving the log file. More
bytes yield better resolution, but will cause the record file to increase in size compared
to using lower byte settings.
Log all channels
Logs all available sonar data simultaneously.
When logging all channels, logs are saved in SL2 format instead of .slg format.
Log in XTF format
Optional logging format for SideScan data. This will only be available when a
StructureScan unit is connected.
This format does not log all channels into one file. The format is used for third part
application support on the PC (like SonarWiz) that need access to the StructureScan
data.
When the echosounder image is
being recorded, there will be a
flashing red symbol and a message
will appear periodically at the
bottom of the screen.
The graphics shows that both
conventional echosounder and
StructureScan data are being
logged
The sounder recording is stopped by re-selecting the Record function.
