The Reception Status menu displays the following information:
NOTE: Some of the parameters apply to DVB-S or DVB-S2 modes only. They are displayed according to
the mode used.
■ C/N – displays the measured carrier to noise ratio [dBc]
■ Eb/N0 – displays the measured energy per bit to noise power spectral density ratio [dB]
■ Link Margin – displays the measured link margin level [dB]
■ BER – DVB-S only. Display the bit error rate detected
■ PER Value – DVB-S2 only. Display the packet error rate detected
NOTE: The BER/PER error rate is given in decimal number x 10-X (i.e., a.b E-X)
■ Carrier Locked – displays the carrier locking status: Locked (Yes) / Unlocked (No)
■ Demodulator Locked – displays the demodulator locking status: Locked (Yes) / Unlocked
(No)
■ Tuned Frequency – displays the reception tuned frequency [MHz]
■ Frequency Offset – displays the reception frequency offset from configured frequency
[MHz]
