Description
Each circle in the information pane identifies
a single fish. You can observe how these move
through the ES80 beam. The colours of the
circles are the same as the colours used in the
colour scale, and these indicate the echo strength
from each fish.
The height of the cone changes to reflect the
current depth.
Tip
This is basically the same view as in the Fish
Position information pane. However, the fish
echoes are here viewed from the side and not from
above. This means that you can also investigate
the depth of the single fishes in the beam.
The information in the Echo Position information
pane is presented in 3D.
• On a standard computer mouse, use the middle
wheel to zoom in and out.
• Right-click while moving the mouse pointer to alter the 3D presentation.
By default, you have two echograms for each frequency channel. The presentation is
split horizontally to show these echograms. The information pane provides information
about its source, that is from which echogram the data comes from. The following
sources can be shown:
• Source: Lower Echogram
• Source: Upper Echogram
• Source: Zoom
Before you open an information pane, you must first click in an echogram view to
make it "active". By doing this you select the channel. In most cases, the data in the
information pane is only valid for the selected channel. In this context, the phrase
channel is used as a common term to identify the combination of transceiver, transducer
and operating frequency.
You can easily change the physical size and shape of each information pane.
Click in its lower right corner, and drag to a new size. To reset the information
pane to its default size, select the button in its top right corner.
Reset size
The function allows you to adjust how much you are able to see "through"
Transparency
the information panes you have opened. You can adjust the setting from 0% (no
transparency) to 90% (almost full transparency) in steps of 10%.
