4.10.2 Advancement 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.
