Tuning the Excalibur Sigma
Manual Frequency Entry
To change frequency, simply type the new frequency into the keyboard. As
soon as you press a number or decimal point, the frequency display will
activate, waiting for a frequency to be typed. You can also double-click on the
display to type in a new frequency in a highlighted field, or after single-clicking
on the display, it is possible to use the mouse wheel to increment/decrement a
particular digit, depending on the current cursor position. After typing the new
frequency, press
Enter
and the receiver will instantly retune. To abort, press
Escape
. To enter units, kHz, MHz or Hz, simply press
k
for kHz,
m
for MHz or
h
for Hz, after entering the digits. The tuned frequency will then be displayed in
the chosen units. Any invalid keystrokes are ignored.
The same principle of changing the displayed frequency units is applied
anywhere in the Excalibur Sigma application where frequency is to be
entered – if you prefer to display or enter the frequency in different units
simply terminate the entry with “h” for Hz, “k” for kHz, “m” for MHz and
“g” for GHz.
Frequencies outside the receiver’s limits will not be accepted and the display
will revert to the previous frequency.
The actually tuned frequency of the currently selected receiver is shown in the
main frequency display:
If you press the
Shift
key and hover with the mouse cursor over the main
frequency display, the display enters a special mode where you can use the
mouse wheel to quickly step up or down the frequency in the corresponding
digit positions.
