ABSTRACT:
A status ribbon to display a signal characteristic for multiple channels/codes within a region of interest has a plurality of stripes. A value for each stripe is represented by a trait of the stripe, such as color or brightness. The trait may represent a range of a signal parameter or may represent a pass/caution/fail value for the signal parameter, or may represent code activity. A window may be used to select a subset of channels/codes for additional detail, the additional detail being displayed textually adjacent the status ribbon. Also a subsidiary status ribbon may be displayed for channels/codes where each stripe of the primary status ribbon represents more than one channel/code, each stripe in the subsidiary status ribbon representing a single channel/code.
