of the window the sonar places on the chosen target. A larger
track window will enable the system to track a large target more

the area, as the system will track the strongest echo within the
track window.

of the echo presentation as a white arrow. This arrow can be
manually adjusted for indication of the wind or current direction,
or automatically show the wind direction if a wind sensor is
