The answer is probably staring me in the face, but I've tried several times and just can't figure this out: how does one control whether to show radar echo trails when overlaying the radar on the chart display?
Obviously it's easy to control whether radar echo trails are on or off on the main radar display, with a toggle setting for that available multiple ways. We have echo trails enabled on the radar display on all 4 TzTouch2 displays on this vessel.
But when turning on the radar overlay to the charts we see one of the 4 installed TzTouch2 displays on this boat showing echo trails while the other 3 don't (they just overlay the immediate radar echos from the last sweep over the chart). Changing the echo trail setting on the radar display doesn't seem to change whether echo trails show on the radar chart overlay. I've compared the settings across the 4 units and they seem identical between the one showing radar overlay echo trails and the ones that don't.
(my goal is to turn the echo trails off on the chart overlay on that one unit too, just like the other 3, as we find trails are useful on the radar but trails clutter the charts a bit too much on the radar overlay).
Can anyone help me with the obvious thing I'm probably missing here?
Thanks!
