4.9.2Advancement synchronized with ship’s speed

With speed data provided by a speed-measuring device, picture advance speed may be set according to ship’s speed, the ship’s speed dependent mode. As shown in the figure below the horizontal scale of the display is not influenced by the change of ship’s speed, thus the speed-dependent picture advance permits judgment of fish school size and abundance at any speed. The choice “SPD SENSING PRR” means the ship’s speed dependent mode, where the PRR changes automatically with ship’s speed.

Fish school shrinks as speed is increased; expanded

as speed is decreased.
