Console Diagnostic Mode

13. Repeater ID currently communicating with the console. If a repeater or group of
repeaters is used to relay station information to the console, the repeater ID
displayed is the repeater that the console is set to receive. If the console is not
listening to repeaters, this section remains blank.
14. Total number of good packets received.
15. Longest streak of consecutive good packets.
Screen 2: Reception Diagnostic Screen
The Reception Diagnostic screen displays information pertinent to the console’s
wireless reception. To view this screen from the Statistical Diagnostic screen, press
2ND and then press CHILL. The degree sign displaying to the right of the last digit in
Value 1 (see illustration below) verifies that the Reception Diagnostic screen is
currently displayed.
The information that is displayed in this screen includes:
1. 8-bit timer value of next reception.
*
2. Radio frequency error of the last packet received successfully. The ideal number
should be zero after frequency correction is added. This value affects the value of
#3.
3. Current frequency correction factor. Shows the frequency adjustment to the
console.
4. Signal strength of the last packet received. The values displayed in this field show
the received signal strength in dBm power. A more negative number means the
signal strength is weaker while a less negative number means the signal strength is
stronger. (Range: -100 to -20.) If a packet is not received successfully, the signal
strength field is dashed out (--).
5. The number of times that the Phase Lock Loop did not lock.
*
6. Percentage of good data packets. Graph shows the current and last 25 days of good
packet percentage data. The vertical scale is fixed at 10% per dot.
7. Frequency index of the next packet to be received.
*
8. Background noise level. This refers to the signal level that the console hears while
it is not listening to a transmitter. Background noise is displayed as power level in
dBm. The more negative the number is, the lower the background noise is.
(Typically, this number should be about 15 lower than signal strength.)
9. Current console battery voltage. Ignore this value if using only an AC adapter to
power the console.
