4.10.2 Advancement synchronized with ship’s speed

may be automatically synchronized with ship’s speed. As shown in the figure
below the horizontal scale of the display is not influenced with the
speed-dependent picture advance mode active, thus it permits judgment of fish
school size and abundance at any speed. With the advancement synchronized
with ship’s speed the picture advance speed setting (on the previous page) is
ignored.
