Top Level Menu Functions

 

File

• Info – Display file info for selected file.
• Protect – Write protect current file to avoid accidental deletion.
• Copy – Copy selected file to SD/USB media.
• Delete – Delete selected file, Yes/No.
• Format – Erase and Format internal SSD, Yes/No.
   

Constellation

Allows configuration of recorded frequency bands. Within the constellation options are signal bit-depth (quantisation) and bandwidth settings. Depending on the combination of bit depth and bandwidth, the number of configurable RF channels will be automatically adjusted to maintain the maximum available disk (SSD) bandwidth.

• Quan/Bandwidth – Adjust both quantisation (bit depth) and recorded signal bandwidth. Changing bandwidth will clear the RF channel settings requiring new RF channel selection by the user.
• RF Channel 1/2/3 – Configure the centre frequency for each available RF channel. Only frequencies containing valid GNSS signals for the selected bandwidth will be shown. In addition to this, once a frequency has been selected on one channel, the same frequency cannot be used on another channel.
• Load Custom Profile – Allows the user to select a profile that has been previous saved via the Web Server.
   

Play Options

Allows control over how LabSat will replay a file.

• Loop – Selected file will replay continuously.
  • Pause – Define a pause duration between loops.
• From – Specify a time in the scenario to replay from.
• For – Specify how long the scenario will replay for.
   

Record Options

Allows control over how LabSat will record a file.

• For – Specify how long the LabSat will record for.
