sum of the 3D sensor, and holds the peak value (max). For
4-channel models, the live data from channel O is shown and
its peak (max) value is also held.
If you have a 3-channel recorder with an accelerometer connected (or have a Gecko SMA
variant) this screen will display an estimate of the Modified Mercalli Intensity (MMI) and
Philippine Earthquake Intensity Scale (PEIS) value based on the maximum displayed
acceleration. Press the Right button twice to clear the retained peak (max) values.

Correction feature (see: 3D Sensor settings) will also correct signal offset over time.
Raw Signal
Pressing Up again will display the raw numbers from the analogue-to-digital converter
(ADC) in real time. The values shown are up to ±8.4 million recorder counts, which
represents a signed 24-bit range number.

If STA/TA triggering is enabled, the STA/LTA ratio is also displayed in real time at the end of
each line. It is the ratio of the average signal in the short term divided by the average
signal in the long term. When nothing much is happening, this value will sit around 1.0, but
a short burst of anomalous signal will increase the number. This ratio may assist you in
determining at what level to set your STA/LTA trigger threshold.
The first screen shows real time peak sensor output in
sensor units, calculated based on the sensor and gain
settings. Tap the sensor to see the numbers change.
