About parameter dialogues and help
This chapter describes all the parameter dialogues accessed from
the menu system.
When a parameter is selected, the available choices are shown in
the dialogue below the menu. The setting is then made using the
available buttons or lists. Several levels are frequently used to
select the parameters.
Note that:
1. In many cases you will not need to open the parameter
dialogue, as you can control the settings directly on the
menu button.
2. The parameter is selected and activated by the sonar once
it is highlighted in the dialogue. The operational changes
can thus be investigated from within the dialogue without
closing it.
3. The Close button will always close the dialogue.
4. The Help button will always provide short-form context
sensitive help. This help text will appear on top of the
parameter dialogue, and you need to press Close to return.
In the Help window, you can also press Free to access to
full interactive manual. This may not be available in all
modes, as it will block the view of the sonar echoes.
Once the interactive manual has been accessed, you need
to press Free to reduce the large help window back to
short-form presentation. If you press Close in the
interactive manual, the manual will automatically appear
next time you press Help in a parameter dialogue.
The menu settings marked with an asterisk, indicate the normal
setting which perform well under normal conditions. If one got
lost in the menu settings, a Default Settings function will bring
up these normal settings.
After experience, when the contents of the menus are better
known, the increase/decrease function on the actual menu button
can be used directly without selecting the submenu.
