Tap 

GSCN

 and input the value from 2 to 26639 using the on-screen keyboard. 

If you need to search SSB based on ARFCN raster, it would take too long time since ARFCN raster is very narrow. Therefore, it 
is recommended that you define a SSB searching frequency in wider steps. This is the usage/purpose of GSCN. You can 
search the frequency corresponding to GSCN in maximum 100 MHz bandwidth of ARFCN that CellAdvisor 5G supports. 

 

NOTE 

Based on the GSCN input frequency, the SSB Frequency is automatically changed.
