Input Data Display
To allow the chart plotter to act as a computer terminal and display the incoming
data exactly as it received. If the data displayed on the screen is unrecognizable,
you may have selected the wrong input parameters for your particular receiver.
Check your receiver manual to be sure that you have selected the proper inter-
face format. If the screen is blank, you may have a broken connection, and no
data is being received. Use 'ZOOM IN' to stop (or continue after pause) data
displaying, 'ENTER' to show data in hex or ASCII mode (normal or small) and
'CLEAR' to exit.
