RF Explorer Pro Waterfall
OpenGL 3D graphics supported
This is a powerful, high performance 2D/3D visualization of historical sweeps, displaying the most recent captured sweep in front, with older sweeps in the background.
It is a very efficient and practical way to display intermittent or time-changing signals that may not be easy to detect any other way.
The color map used by the Waterfall screen is defined by the Top and Bottom amplitude signals configured on the spectrum analyzer.
Signal peaks that are close to the top will show red region whereas signals close to the bottom will display blue, with a color gradient in between.
The "heat" of the display color code can be dynamically adjusted by changing the Top and Bottom amplitude settings anytime.
Settings
Press and hold the finger on the waterfall screen anytime to enable a context sensitive menu.
Signal Type
- Real Time: Show real time captured activity.
- Max Hold: Show maximum value of all captured samples.
Set Perspective...
You can choose between Perspective1, Perspective2, ISO and 2D different perspectives, the perspective 2D view that is best suited for accurate signal research.
Set History Sweeps...
Determine historical time to be displayed as last 30, 60 or 120 seconds.
Set Visible Items...
- Transparent: Define 3D graphics as transparent when selected, or opaque when unselected.
- Visible Floor: Display a gray, opaque grid floor when selected.
- Visible Draw: Sometimes useful to know the performance of the graphics card representing frames per second (FPS) of the waterfall display.
Save Screen...
Store Waterfall screen to an PNG image file.
Full Screen Switch
Toggles full-screen mode on and off, providing a clearer view of the spectrum when necessary.
