Gain
Selecting Gain displays the Gain adjustment slider. When Auto
is selected, the scanner’s gain is automatically adjusted to provide
optimal performance. Manually adjusting the gain increases or
decreases the receiver’s sensitivity. Increasing the gain may help to
show a distant target, but may also increase screen clutter.
To change the Gain setting:
1, Use
the Rocker to move the slider up or down.
2. Press
ENTER to accept the change.
To return the Gain setting to Auto, move the slider to the Auto
position, or press the Auto soft key.
Sea Clutter
Adjusting the Sea Clutter setting can help eliminate any unwanted
screen clutter caused by choppy sea conditions. Selecting Sea Clutter
displays the Sea Clutter adjustment slider. The slider has three preset
positions: Calm, Moderate, and Rough.
