the desired area.
3. Select G(1 or 2) Alarm, and then select the Min Depth alarm condition.

7.9.2.2 Minimum Depth Alarm with Gate Tracking
When gate tracking is active, the tracking gate moves side-to-side, tracking the
position of the echo in the nontracking (first) gate. With gate tracking active, the Min
Depth alarm threshold is relative to the position of the echo in the nontracking gate
(first gate).
