Bathy-2010 Screen Capture
Bathy-2010 Interface
The Bathy 2010 Main interface is divided into two
fields, the Controls and Status field, and the Data field.
The vertical window boundary between the fields may be positioned by
the user as desired.
The Controls and Status field is located in the left portion of the
window.
It provides access to all of the user controlled parameters.
Specifically, the Controls and Status field includes digital depth,
an animated compass with heading marks in degrees, GPS Position,
Time/Date, Ping Count,
available disk space (for data storage), and Bathy 2010 Data
Acquisition / Playback Unit status.
Display Modes
The Bathy 2010 Data Acquisition / Playback Unit features an enhanced
multi-mode zoom. It provides a smooth, magnified high-resolution
window of the bottom. The enhanced zoom modes are acquired in
real-time and are displayed/recorded at higher sample rates than the
Normal data (assuming the zoom range is smaller than the normal
range).
There are 4 display modes available with Bathy 2010 software,
including 3 Zoom modes, and 1 without any zoom. They include:
Normal
This mode displays the normal bottom data by itself without any zoom
information. When selected, this mode will use the entire viewing
area.
Bottom Zoom
When selected, this mode will split the viewing area in half. The
left side will be used to show zoom information, and the right side
for normal bottom data. Bottom Zoom mode centers the zoom display
around the current depth allowing you to follow it up and down the
water column at a high resolution. In addition, the user can use the
Zoom Range Control to zoom in or out. The Zoom Range value
represents the zoom range in whichever units are currently selected.
When the zoom window moves up or down to track the bottom, it does
so in Zoom Range / 2 increments.
Bottom Lock Zoom
This mode functions the same way as Bottom Zoom, however it does not
show the bottom moving through the water column. Instead, it will
lock the bottom to the upper portion of the zoom view so that the
user may continuously monitor sub-bottom information.
Marker Zoom
Like in the other modes, Marker Zoom provides a high-resolution
zoomed view of the water column, however in this mode, the user can
specify where in the water column the zoom range will begin. This is
accomplished by dragging the marker zoom bar up or down the normal
view scalebar to the point you want the zoom range to begin. The
start of the zoom range can be observed at the top of the zoom
window while you drag the marker zoom bar, but the marker zoom isn’t
set until the mouse button is released.
