13 Receiver On Screen Display
The receiver on screen display is a useful diagnostic tool providing a
number of pages with different functionality.
An Input Status page displaying simple data on the signal being
received such as frequency, range mode, signal strength and quality.
An RF Advanced page displaying detailed data on the signal being
received such as lock statuses, modulation scheme, receiver settings
and error counts.
An Engineering Data page displaying antenna input spectrum plots and
metadata if received from the transmitter.
A Frequency Scanning page which can scan a frequency range and plot
signal strength showing noise free areas to place a transmitter
frequency. This can also automatically provide a list of decodable
services within that range.
A GPS Overlay page displaying GPS time, date, position and fix type if
received from the transmitter.
13.1 Input Status Page
The Input Status page contains a simplified representation of the signal
being received.
