Advance speed refers to the speed at which the vertical scan
lines move from right to left across the ECHO screen. There
are five advance speeds (plus the STOP setting, which freezes
the advance of all data):
2/1 - two identical lines of data are displayed for every
•
ping
1/1 - one line of data is displayed for every ping
•
1/2 - one line of data is displayed for every two pings
•
1/4 - one line of data is displayed for every four pings
•
1/8 - one line of data is displayed for every eight pings
•
For speeds 1/2, 1/4, and 1/8, each displayed line of data is
averaged over 2, 4, or 8 pings.
