In this context, the phrase
marker
is used to identify a visual symbol placed in the SX90
presentation. By placing a marker on the echo it is regarded as an
object
that you can act
upon. If relevant, you can further classify the object as a
target
.
The phrase
target
is used to identify an echo in the SX90 presentation that you wish to act
upon. The echo may be from a material item, a shallow, reef or rock, or from fish, fish
schools or mammals. You must decide which echoes that shall be classified as targets,
and wether you shall start target tracking.
If you have placed markers on several echoes to make them objects, you can select one
of these and give it
priority
status. The bearing line in the relevant SX90 views will
automatically be locked on the object with this priority to reflects its bearing. Only one
single object can be given priority status. The priority is identified with a "P".
•
Initiate Track
During normal operation, some echoes are clearly more interesting than others. In many
situations specific echoes may be regarded as
targets
, and it can be useful to receive
continuous information about the location, speed and heading of such targets. To set up
the SX90 to provide such information, you can start
target tracking
.
The
Initiate Track
function allows you to manually start target tracking.
Place the cursor over the echo you wish to track. Select
Initiate Track
. The tracked target
is regarded as an
object
, and it is identified with a circle and two lines. The bearing
line is automatically locked on the object to reflects its bearing. A new tracked object
is automatically given priority status. If another object has this priority, the status is
transferred to the new object. The priority is identified with a "P".
