•
Radio Serial Number – The ID of the XM receiver
•
Bit Error Rate – The rate of errors being received. The bit
error rate for at least the ground station of one of the
satellites needs to be below 60 to get a good signal.
•
Service Level – The subscription level of service that the
customer has purchased.
The Communication Status column has the following fields:
•
Receiving Data – A check mark indicates that data
(communication) is being received from the XM receiver.
A red “X” indicates that data is not being received.
•
Receiving Valid Data - A check mark indicates that valid
data (processed and useable weather data) is being
received from the XM receiver. A red “X” indicates that
received data is not valid.
NOTE: If a green check mark is displayed under “Receiving Data”
and a Radio Serial number is displayed, then there is valid
communication between AV8OR ACE and the weather
receiver. A red X under “Receiving Valid Data” indicates a
critical problem. It could mean a subscription problem (try
the Refresh Mode update procedure listed below) or a
weather receiver failure.

•
