The Tilt is normally controlled from the operating panel. On the
standard version, the transducer can be tilted electronically from
+10° up to -60° down, and on the optional 90° tilt version, it may
be tilted down to - 90°. In addition to the readout on the tilt menu
button, the tilt angle is normally repeated on the tilt indicator in
the upper left- hand corner, and in vertical modes; directly in the
vertical slice.
The following options are available:
• Up arrow - Tilt up.
• Down arrow - Tilt down.
• Tilt Step - The tilt step button is used for selecting the tilt steps
in auto tilt, and can be selected from 1° to 10° directly with the
increase/decrease function on the Tilt Step button, or by the
- or + buttons in the tilt step submenu.
• Tilt Sector - The tilt sector button is used for selecting the active
tilt sector in auto tilt, and can be selected from 2° to 100° directly
with the increase/decrease function on the Tilt Sector button,
or by the - or + buttons in the tilt sector submenu.
• Manual - In manual mode, the transducer may be tilted within
the limits by pressing the ↓ (tilt down) or ↑ (tilt up) button.
• Auto - In auto tilt mode, the transducer will automatically
change tilt angle for each transmission. The change of the tilt
angle is selected by the tilt step button, and the total tilt sector
is selected by the tilt sector button. The centre of the auto tilt
search can be adjusted with the - (tilt down) or +(tilt up)
buttons. The tilt sector limits will be shown on the tilt indicator
with yellow lines and digits. Note that the auto tilt is working
differently when one of the automatically training
programmes are activated (auto search, position track and
target track).
