Advanced Display overview
Advanced Display can show one to four simultaneous tiles. Each tile selects its own receiver and visualization, while all tiles share the same live or recorded timeline. Route the window to another display without losing the main receiver workspace.
Available in Advanced Display tiles
| View | Best for |
|---|---|
| Spectrum + Waterfall | Exact frequency, bandwidth, level, and conventional time history |
| Persistence | Density, weak intermittent signals, steady carriers, and noise-floor variance |
| 3D Receiver Spectrum | Peak shape and neighboring energy across one live receiver span |
| 3D Waterfall History | Drift, repeated bursts, changing bandwidth, and temporal structure |
| Research 3D Terrain | Interactive orbiting inspection of accumulated signal history |
| Spectrum Tunnel | A forward-looking camera through the same received history surface |
Detached receiver analysis
Select POP OUT on any receiver card to open a resizable analysis window. The window can switch views live without closing the receiver or interrupting the rest of the array.
| View | What it measures or shows |
|---|---|
| Spectrum + Waterfall | Adaptive live spectrum and scrolling history |
| Persistence | A decaying frequency-by-amplitude density histogram with current trace and max hold |
| 3D Terrain | Interactive history geometry viewed from an orbiting camera |
| Spectrum Tunnel | The same measured history from a camera at the leading edge of the terrain |
| Band Occupancy | Time-bucketed activity scored against a displayed threshold above the receiver floor, with observed duty cycle |
| Direction Compass | Relative-amplitude lobes for bearing-assigned receivers, receiver agreement, and an amplitude-weighted resultant |
| IQ Constellation | Complex raw baseband across the received span, including noise cloud, carrier structure, clipping, and 8-bit quantization |
Array-wide views
Rosebud compares receiver sectors, inferred bearing, movement, and timeline context in a radial array display. Aggregate Spectrum stitches ranges partitioned across multiple receivers into one full-range spectrum and waterfall.
Open one to four Advanced Display tiles
- Open ADVANCED DISPLAY from the workspace.
- Choose the number of view tiles.
- Select a receiver and visualization in each tile header.
- Set palette, accent, grid, background, contrast, and gamma for the display environment.
- Move the window to the intended monitor and maximize it.
Live raw baseband
IQ Constellation requests a low-rate display copy of complex baseband only while that viewer is attached. The receiver and normal spectrum path continue operating. The view represents the whole sampled span, not a single demodulated channel, and labels RTL 8-bit lattice behavior so quantization does not look like invented signal structure.
Rendering behavior
WebGL2 is preferred for accelerated 3D views. Persistence and several analysis displays use efficient canvas rendering, while terrain views have a canvas fallback when a working GPU context is unavailable. Reducing tile count, FFT zoom, or waterfall speed can improve frame rate on older systems.
