Starting a target track
During normal operation, some echoes are clearly more interesting than others. In many
situations specific echoes may be regarded as
targets
. To set up the ST90 system to provide
such information, you can start
target tracking
.
Context
A target track permits the ST90 system to automatically control the tilt and bearing based on
the movements of the chosen target. It locks on the target defined by its position, heading
and speed. The tracked target is regarded as an
object
, and it is identified with a circle and
two lines. The two lines reflect the size of the current tracking area.

fish schools or mammals. In most cases, the target will move and continuously change
