| Universal FSK Decoder - Main
Control Panel |
The WiNRADiO Universal FSK Decoder is an extremely
versatile signal decoding utility for WiNRADiO receivers. Using WiNRADiO
models with in-built DSP (WR-3150i-DSP) will
provide the best decoding quality; however, the Decoder will also work
well with a sound card.
The Decoder contains several powerful analysis
tools, making it possible to determine transmission characteristics of
an unknown signal automatically.
Looking at the Decoder main control panel on the
right, you will see a drop-down list at the top, labeled Protocol.
Here you can select the type of coding protocol used. Using the Add
or Edit buttons, new protocols can be added, either created
entirely from scratch (the number of variable parameters makes the
number of usable protocols almost unlimited), or by deriving new
protocols from existing ones by modifying some of their parameters.
A "protocol" consists of all the various
settings and parameters which are needed to be able to decode a signal,
including the type of coding, mark/space frequencies, baud rate,
character format, translation table, etc.
The first stage of the signal decoding chain is
the level detector, visible at top-left of the main control panel above.
This detector allows the user to determine whether
an adequate audio signal level exists at the decoder input. This
facility is available only when a sound card is used; in such case the
level should be adjusted either using the receiver or sound card volume
settings. With WiNRADiO DSP receivers, the level control is automatic.
