Selecting which beams to see in the Channel views
The ME70 presentation provides five Channel views. You can select which beams to display in each of these Channel views.
Context
The ME70 presentation provides five Channel views. There are three views next to each other in the top row, and one on each side of the Swath view. Each Channel view presents the echogram for the chosen beam, as well as related information. All information in a selected field can be hidden from view with the Hide View function.
The Beam Selection function is used for selecting which beams to display in the Channel views. The Beam Selection function is located on the Display menu.
The two coloured lines in the Swath view identify the beams that are displayed in the Channel views.
Once the centre beam for the top centre channel is selected, the other Channel views will automatically show you the two or three beams adjacent to the centre beam.
1 Top left: Chosen beam -1
2 Top right: Chosen beam +1
3 Top left: Chosen beam –2
4 Top left: Chosen beam +2
Procedure
1 Open the Display menu.
2 Select Beam selection.
