Satellite color codes

The status of the channels being used and the satellites being tracked is shown by color-coding in the Constellation window.

Name	Color code	Description
Dark Gray		The channel is idle.
Black		The channel is searching for a satellite or there is an unknown error.
Magenta		The channel is in wide frequency band pull-in state.
Red		The channel is in frequency lock loop or narrow frequency band pull-in state or the channel is locked to a satellite but the ephemeris data indicates the satellite is unhealthy.
Blue		The channel is in alignment mode or the channel is locked to a satellite but the ephemeris data is old (not updated within the last 3 hours) or the channel is locked to a satellite but ephemeris data for the satellite has not yet been received.
Dark Green		The channel is locked to a satellite and the observations are good.
Light Green		The channel is attempting to re-aquire the satellite.
Green Yellow		The channel is attempting a fast re-aquisition or steering or the channel is locked to a satellite but no compatible ionospheric or differential correction is available for the satellite.
Yellow		The channel is locked to a satellite but there was an anomaly during computation of the satellite's position.
Cyan		The channel is locked to a satellite but an error has occurred. Possible errors include a satellite coordinate error, an elevation error due to the satellite being below the cut off angle, large misclosure due to an excessive gap between the estimated and actual positions or an invalid IODE (Issue of Data Ephemeris).
Light Gray		The channel is locked to a satellite but the satellite has been locked out by the user.
Orange		The channel is locked to a satellite but there is no observation.
