At the maintenance page of the device window there are a couple of configuration parameters which must be set to make the software talk to the Downconverter.
| parameter | description |
|---|---|
| address | The device address (decimal) as set at the device's front panel. |
| readBackDelay | Defines the delay the driver uses when it reads back parameters recently commanded. The delay is initialized at a proved preset value which should not be changed under normal circumstances. |
| ifFrequency | Sets if frequency between 70 MHz and 140 MHz. |
| gainRange | Adjust the gain range to match the respective downconverter. |
| powerDisplayMode | Defines the display of gain or attenuation in the parameter section. |
| deviceComment | An optional text entered here appears as an addition to the tooltip which is shown while the mouse is placed over a device icon in the GUI. The "\n" character sequence is translated into a newline character, splitting the text into multiple lines. |
