Beacon Signal Scope - Leica MX400 Operating Instructions Manual

Operator's Manual
Freq.: is the frequency in Hz.
RSSI: is the beacon relative signal strength indicator. Refer to
DGPS1 section of this manual.
Time: is the last time a carrier or modulated signal was received on
the given frequency.
Status: is the current demodulator status:
No Sig = no signal
CW = carrier wave
MSK 100 U = Minimum Shift Keying, 100 (or 200) baud modula-
tion (normal DGPS beacon signal)
Unknown = a carrier and modulation of unrecognized format was
found
Noise: is the noise on the beacon signal. Refer to DGPS1 section of
this manual.
S Time: is used for engineering purposes.
Offset: is used for engineering purposes.
MSK Fail: is used for engineering purposes.
Reject: is used for engineering purposes.

Beacon Signal Scope

This screen is displayed by going to DGPS8 and pressing the right
cursor key.
This screen is used as a scope to get an idea of the beacon signal
quality. You can get much of the same feeling for the signal quality
by reading the signal and noise values on the DGPS1 screen, but
