These Image Controls are used to optimize the M mode picture. Verify that all the listed controls are
working as intended:
•
Adjust Horizontal sweep to optimize the display resolution.
•
Adjust Gain and TGC controls to adjust the range to be imaged.
•
Use the Frequency (move to higher frequencies) or the Frame rate control (move to lower frame
rate) to increase resolution in image.
•
Use the Frequency (move to lower frequency) to increase penetration.
•
Adjust Focus to move the focal point(s) around the region of interest in the M-Mode display.
•
Adjust Dynamic range to optimize the useful range of incoming echoes to the available grey scale.
•
Adjust Compress and Edge Enhance to further optimize the display.
