Wiper

The wiper feature automatically reduces the brilliance of unwanted weak signals
(noise, sea clutter, rain clutter, etc.) and unnecessary signals, like radar interference,
to clear the picture of unnecessary echoes. The result of wiper depends on the wiper
setting used and whether echo averaging is turned on or off, as described below.

Echo Average On (1,2, Auto) Processing content A
Processing content A: The brilliance of unnecessary weak echoes, like noise and ra-
dar interference, is reduced to clear the picture. The difference between wiper 1 and
2 is that brilliance is lowered more slowly in 1.

the wiper feature is turned on. You can see how the picture changes with the echo av-
eraging turned off and turned on.
