to saving the value. Enter the computed number into the Offset Value
field adjacent to the GIS window and click on the Apply button. The data
in the adjacent window will be corrected for this offset, whereas the other
window will show uncorrected data.

13. Upon producing an acceptable result, enter the offset value in the Offset

to Save field at the bottom of the dialog box and click Save and Exit if
you want that new offset value to be taken into account for the next
parameter test (Latency, Pitch or Yaw).

14. For each of the remaining Patch Test parameters (Latency, Pitch and

Yaw), select the desired test and then repeat steps 8 through 12.

15. At the end of the overall process, click the Exit button in the Patch Test

dialog box. When prompted, enter a geometry filename in which to save
the new offsets. You will also be prompted to answer if you want this file
to be the geometry file for your Bathy Pro project.
