Description
When you study an echogram, it is often useful to add personal comments to it. Annotations can also be useful to add to ADCP views. Comments can be used to identify specific events such as specific echoes, unusual bottom conditions, or simply for keeping
track of time or distance. Use the Annotations page to type comments and insert annotations into views. Annotations can be typed in manually, set up for automatic generation, or imported from an external device. The Annotations page is located in the Installation dialog box.
When you save raw data, the annotations you have defined are stored as annotation datagrams.
The Lines page in the Echogram dialog box allows you to enable or disable annotations in the echograms.
The Lines page in the ADCP View Settings dialog box allows you to enable or disable annotations in the ADCP views.
Select Text or Line to allow annotation markers to be shown. If you select Line, each text annotation is followed by a vertical line for improved visibility.
