  • index.html: The main HTML document that displays the PM5644 test pattern
  • PM5644.svg: SVG version of the PM5644 test pattern used as background image

URL Parameters

You can customize the display by adding URL parameters:

Top Bar Parameters

    index.html?tbar=STATION%20ID
    
  • tbar1 and tbar2: Displays two lines of text in the top bar (small format)

    index.html?tbar1=LINE%201&tbar2=LINE%202
