RX Testing
Overview¶
The RX Scoreboard is a developer/troubleshooting feature that shows the outcome of every receiver packet cycle with a single character. Enable it with -DPRINT_RX_SCOREBOARD when compiling any RX environment and connect to the debug serial UART, usually the same as the CRSF output UART for most environments.
⚠️ For that reason, it should not be enabled during normal RC control operations since it will get mixed in with real CRSF data sent to the FC.

Name Origin¶
The term scoreboard originated from an Apache (web server) feature that would display the state of every work as a single character in a text block. Thanks to them for the feature name and the dodecatillion web pages they've enabled serving.
