With this function one may choose the form of the transmitter
pulse:
PULSE FORM.:
CW SHORT
CW NORMAL
CW LONG
*FM AUTO
FM 1
FM 2
FM 4
FM 8
CW (Continuous wave):
The frequency of the transmitter pulse is here constant. There is
a choice between three pulse lengths: short, normal and long. In
addition, the length of the pulse will change automatically in
accordance with chosen range. The table below shows the
different pulse lengths for CW and FM. The pulse length is given
in milliseconds (ms).

FM (Frequency modulation):
In the FM mode the transmitter pulse is frequency modulated.
This provides a stable echo presentation and greater ability of
detection as noise and reverberation are reduced.
