Transmission Trigger Delay

Tuning the Transmission Trigger Delay (TTD) allows making accurate distance

measurement. In practice, you need to align the start of the sweep with the

leading edge of the transmission pulse.

IMPORTANT: The unit comes with a default Tuning value already setup by the

factory but to obtain maximum precision you should finely adjust this value. Use

the following procedure.

Enter the Transmission Trigger Delay page.

[MENU] + "Tuning" + [ENTER] + "Transmission Trigger Delay" + [ENTER]

Since the STC is automatically turned off when entering this page, the screen

appear completely covered with clutter, this is a mandatory condition to
