Description
Increasing the frame rate decreases the packet size
(ensemble length or the number of interrogations)
of each color line, and decreases the number of
color lines in the color sector. Higher frame rates
may be useful in detecting jets of short duration, or
when the patient has a high heart rate.
Decreasing the frame rate increases the packet
size and the number of lines per color sector. This
improves definition or resolution of the color display.
The frame rate is displayed as ### fps (frames per
second). The current selection is displayed under
the System Data (see "Cypress System Data" on
page 5-9).
