for colors. Set display width dB for one color.

Line interpolation: Smoothes picture when picture advance speed is 2/1, 4/1 or 8/1.

greater the smoothing.

Multi beam dialog box description

TX frequency: Sets Tx frequency, and the choices are Low, Standard and High. For normal
use, choose Standard. When interference exists because your vessel is near another vessel
whose echo sounder operates on the same frequency as the FCV-30, choose Low or High
as appropriate to remove this interference.

TX pulse width: Pulse width is automatically changed with display range and shift. A
shorter pulse offers better resolution, while a longer pulse is useful for long-range detection.
Choose Standard for general sounding; Long, for longer detection range (about twice that of
the Standard setting).
