Display I/Q Map
.
An I/Q State Map is displayed from the current values in the I/Q Values table.
The I/Q State Map in this example has four symbols. The I/Q State Map uses the following four
unique values: 0.5, 1.0,
0.5, and 1.0 to create the four symbols. It is not the number of values
that defines how many symbols a map has, but how those values are combined.
