Acoustic Display Modes

The WMB-X230 graphical user interface has three acoustic display modes and two chart display
modes. These display modes all show acquired data in different ways, with various settings available
for adjusting each type of display.
Each of these display modes can be viewed in multiple different layout configurations. For information
on configuring different display layouts, see section "5. Layout Selection" on page 32.
Each acoustic display can be zoomed by using the mouse wheel - just click on the display and
scroll up or down to zoom in or out.
The zoom on each acoustic display can be reset by double-clicking on the window.
The following display modes make up the acoustic feature of the WASSP software.
3.1

Sonar Display

The sonar display shows the water column and seafloor profile below the transducer. This represents
a sonar view of the water column and seafloor as seen from behind the vessel. See Figure 4.
A 120° wide by 4° long swath or footprint is covered. The system generates 112 beams over the 120°
footprint to provide a high-resolution sonar view. The swath or footprint is used to develop seafloor
profiles and gives a seafloor coverage of twice the depth (e.g. 100 m depth gives 200 m seafloor
coverage).
