The enabled default is Automatic, which means you will allow BathyPro to
detect all echoes (major, distinct sonar returns). If you accept the default,
you are making no change in the detection settings.
2. Click Manual to enable detection settings and make the Echoes Mode
Selection part of the dialog box available for your selection.
• Echo Ratio (*0.01): This sets the ratio of major, distinct sonar returns that
you will accept for controlling the sheer number of echoes (returns) to be
processed. The default is 1. The bigger the number you choose, the
greater is the filtration.
• Echo Skeletonization: Enabling this (putting a check mark here) means
you want to filter out all echoes (returns) except for the main backbone,
or essence, of returns that form the hyperbola.
• Isolated Echo Erasing: Enabling this (putting a check mark here) means
you will ignore (filter out) those echoes (returns) that are separated from
the main backbone that forms the hyperbola.
3. Click OK to allow these changes to influence the hyperbola processing.
