The FORMAT screen presents the results of six signal format checks. A given
check reports back either OK or ERROR. The waveform monitor continuously
performs the format checks. The results are not saved or latched; once an error
condition clears, the indicator returns to OK. The FORMAT screen is identical
for V1.X and V2.X firmware except for the CABLE selection for the DISPLAY
bezel button.
