In order to eliminate interferencefrom other equipment on board,
the sonars trigger pulse can be synchronized with the other

be connected to the sonar.

This menu is used to switch the synchronizing input ON/OFF. If
switched ON, the sonar will wait for a trigger pulse before
starting a new transmission. This wait state has a timeout of five
seconds, whereafter the sonar will start a new transmission.
When using external synchronizing, the sonars ping rate will be
reduced.
