Examples: 08.0,13.5,2.5,1.8 means:

Minimum Eb/No observed in the measurement interval = 8.0 dB

Average Eb/No observed in the measurement interval = 13.5 dB

Maximum TPLI observed in the measurement interval = 2.5 dB

Average TPLI observed in the measurement interval = 1.8 dB

LOSS,04.5,0.0,0.0 means:

There was a loss of demod lock during the measurement interval Average Eb/No observed in the measurement interval = 4.5 dB Maximum TPLI observed in the measurement interval = 0 dB

Average TPLI observed in the measurement interval = 0 dB (Which indicates no AUPC activity, or that AUPC is disabled.)

If the user selects CLEAR, the statistics log is cleared, and the user is taken directly back to the previous menu.
