2.4 Screen Details
The application uses five primary screens. Each screen reports or allows data changes to
occur. The refresh rate of the program (the amount of time it takes to refresh every value
in the application with newly reported results from all RF terminals) is dynamic and is
shown on the Terminal Screen.
External processes (such as entering remote commands on the Terminal Screen,
modifying values on the Status Screen, modifying values on the Comm/Util Screen, or
reducing the baud rate, etc.), tend to increase the refresh rate. As the user reduces requests
to the application, the refresh rate is also reduced. This effectively increases the number
of times per second the application can query the RF terminals for updated information.
Note: When interfacing with terminals that are configured for Transmit-Only, screens
and commands referring to down conversion or receive functions are not available.
