SECTION 4: OSCOR AUTOMATIC OPERATION
77 REI OSC-5000E
Auto Plotting of Threat Signals
Using this option, the OSCOR provides printed information about each threat signal
exceeding the specified threat level. When the feature is activated, there are four options
for plot styles to choose from. You may choose from these choices: 1 line, 2 line, block,
and chart.
The signal listing methods provide a short description of threat signals that are
encountered. All signals are plotted as they are detected. Information about each threat
includes threat level, time and date detected, frequency and bandwidth used, and input
and demodulator selected. This plotting method provides a quick hardcopy of the
necessary signal information and requires very little paper or plotting time. Experiment
with these methods to view the various results. However, the 2-line method provides the
most information on the least amount of paper.
The plot style chart provides a graph of each threat signal encountered. This mode
requires additional paper and increases plotting time, but it provides more information
about the signal.
To toggle between the plot style, 1 line, 2 line, block, and chart modes:
1. Enter the Automatic Mode Output Configuration Menu as described above.
2. Press the F2 button (labeled PLOT STYLE) under the Outputs Menu to toggle the
plotting options through the options of 1 Line, 2 Line, BLOCK, CHART, and OFF.
Auto Tape Recording of Threat Signals
Using this option, the OSCOR will provide a timed tape recording of each received
signal exceeding the specified threat level. Refer to page 57 Tape Recorder Controls for
more information about the tape recorder.
To activate or deactivate the Auto Tape Recording Mode:
1. Enter the Automatic Mode Output Configuration Menu as described above.
2. Press the F3 button (labeled RECORDER/TIME OUT) under the Outputs Menu to
activate (or deactivate) the Automatic Recording Mode.
3. Enter the number of minutes that you wish to record of each threat signal.
Entering a number of “0” will default the OSCOR to 6 minutes.
NOTE: The tape recorder must be properly plugged into the OSCOR unit with the
2.5mm REMOTE jack connected to the tape recorder remote control jack and the
3.5mm OUT jack plugged into the tape recorder microphone input.
Display Mode
During automatic operation, other personnel may encounter the OSCOR. It is
recommended that the OSCOR screen be de-activated so that a casual observer will not
know what the OSCOR is doing.
