station. These values range from one to ten bars. The greater
the number of bars, the better the performance of the modem.
When checked, it indicates that a large number of errors have
been detected by the modem. The modem may continue to
operate but with a severely reduced performance, caused by
the increased likelihood of connection retries and data errors
when communicating with the wireless base station.
When checked, it indicates that the currently detected CDPD
system is busy. The modem may continue to operate but at a
decreased level of performance.

Shows the CDPD channel currently active. If the terminal is
not registered or is searching for a channel, the value
displayed is either "Searching A" or "Searching B", depending
on the state of the modem. Once a channel is detected, a
numeric value for the channel displays.
This shows either "None" or a numeric value between 1 and
7. "None" indicates a successful registration without any
errors. If a numeric error code is displayed, an error has
occurred. Tap the button to display details about the error.
