This option lets you view the signal strength bar, which is an indication of the
strength of the electronic signal produced by the photodiode. A stronger signal
makes more bars visible, and a weaker signal makes fewer bars visible. The size
of the signal strength bar is proportional to strength of the peripheral pulsations.
It does not show changes in percentage of oxygen saturation.
