2.5 TVG Level

TVG (Time Varied Gain) compensates for
propagation attenuation of the ultrasonic
waves. It does this by equalizing echo pre-
sentation so that fish schools of the same size
appear in the same density in both shallow
and deep waters. In addition, it reduces sur-
face noise. Note that if the TVG level is set
too high short range echoes may not be dis-
played.

1. Turn on the power while pressing any key.

2. Press the A-SCOPE key three times. The

start-up screen appears and shortly there-
after the TVG SELECT display appears.

2.6 Echo Offset

The echo offset feature functions to compen-
sate for too weak or too strong echo level. If
the on-screen echo level appears to be too
weak or too strong and the level cannot be
adjusted satisfactorily with the gain controls,
do the following to adjust echo level:

1. Turn on the power while pressing any key.

2. Press the SIG LEV key three times. The

start-up screen appears and shortly there-
after the ECHO OFFSET display appears.
