4.4  Miscellanous Typical Configuration Tasks
Configuring the Front Panel Information Display
To configure the 4-line LCD information display on the front panel of the unit:
1.
Navigate to MANAGEMENT > OTHER: Front Panel .
2.
In the Show Content field, select the display you want from the drop-down list. The
options are:
254
with the keypad itself, or by means of this check box. [DEFAULT = this box is NOT
checked, i.e. the keypad is NOT locked]
Allow Position Display —As per DEFAULT, SecureSync allows to display the geo
graphic position of your antenna in the information display, if so configured
under the Show Content selection menu. The option to display the position can be
disabled by unchecking this box. This will cause the information display on the
front panel of the unit to show the message "Not Enabled" when selecting and
applying the Position option via the keypad.
Rotate —This option enables sequential rotation of the content displayed in the
information display as long as the keypad is not in use. Content will rotate
through all enabled content for installed options. When Rotate is selected, a fur
ther option appears on the screen:
Rotation Delay —This option sets the duration in seconds for content display
during rotation before the next content screen is displayed. [Range =
between 1 and 30 seconds]
Network (the default)—This option displays the current network settings. If an
option card is installed that provides additional network interfaces, there will be
additional network choices (i.e., Network: eth0, Network: eth1, etc.).
Status —This option displays current key status indications (such as NTP Stratum
level, TFOM –"Time Figure of Merit", Sync status and Oscillator lock status).
Position —This option displays latitude, longitude and elevation of the antenna.
Day of Year —This option displays the day of year (such as "Day of Year 104").
GNSS —This option displays the number of satellites currently being used (and the
strongest signal strength out of all these satellites) and their relative signal
strengths of all the receiver channels that are tracking satellites as a bar graph.
Date —This option displays the current date (such as "16 November 2014").
Note:
The date is based on the timescale configured for the information dis
play. It is possible that a date other than "today's local date" may be
shown, if the configured time scale has already rolled over to its new date,
though local time has not yet rolled over to its new date.
