you are bothered by strong noise or interference, especially from your own vessel, or even
from other vessels operating near you.
The four filter settings are used to control the "efficiency" of the filter. To disable the filter,
set it to Off.
Tip
Use weak filtering - or turn the filter off - if you have strong echoes on short ranges. The
filter may then be too powerful, and distort the echo presentation.
Select the middle of the button to open a small menu with the available options. Select the
left side of the button to select a "lower"' menu choice. Select the right side of the button
to select a "higher"' menu choice.
Additional information for the technically minded:
The filtering is done by overriding the automatic function for the preamplifiers. The number
of amplifier stages used is a function of range instead of signal level. There is a total of six
amplifier stages. By forcing the CS90 system to use (for example) three amplifier stages
at a certain distance, interference will be clipped at this specific range. This is better than
suppressing all other echoes at the same range.
