Fish Position information pane description
The Fish Position information pane shows the position of the detected single fish echoes. The three circles in the information pane identify the operational frequencies. The echoes are seen from above. The colours indicate the echo strength.
How to open
Before you open an information pane, you must first click in an Inspection view to make it "active". The information provided will only be valid for the selected view.
To open the Fish Position information pane, click in the chosen view to activate it, then select the Fish Position button on the top bar. To close the information pane, select it one more time on the top bar. You can also select Close in the top right corner of the pane.
Information panes are only available for Inspection views.
- The dotted inner circle identifies the low frequency in the sweep.
- The circle between them identifies the centre frequency.
- The outer dotted circle identifies the high frequency.
Description
Each coloured circle in the information pane identifies a single fish. You can observe how these move through the beam. The colours used are the same as the colours used in the colour scale, and these indicate the echo strength from each fish.
This information pane can be useful during trawling. Keep an eye on the Fish Position information pane to make sure that you can manoeuvre the trawl through the areas with most fish.
This is basically the same view as in the Echo Position information pane. However, the fish echoes are here viewed from above and not from the side.
The information pane provides information about its source, that is from which echogram the data comes from.
You can easily change the physical size and shape of each information pane. Click in its lower right corner, and drag to a new size.
To reset the information pane to its default size, select the Reset size button in its top right corner.
The Transparency function allows you to adjust how much you are able to see "through" the information panes you have opened. You can adjust the setting from 0% (no transparency) to 90% (almost full transparency) in steps of 10%.
