You should set the acquisition search range for waterfall left click
action. As you adjust this control you will see the red mode
width change on the waterfall scale. You can also adjust this
value by pointing the mouse to the waterfall. Hold down the
Control key and rotate the mouse wheel. The search routine which
finds the psk signal operates on a s/n threshold detector as well as
recognizing the Psk phase modulation. You can adjust the
acquisition signal to ratio threshold for the search routine.
The PSK decoder estimates the signal to noise ratio, S/N, and the intermodulation distortion, IMD, of the received signal. This measurement is valid during periods when the other station is transmitting the idle signal. The estimates are displayed on the status bar. You can control how these values are displayed; clear or dim after NN seconds. Setting the seconds to 0 disables the clear/dim action.
Fldigi
has a multi channel psk viewer that operates in all of the psk baud
rates. You control the look and behavior of the viewer with these
settings. The number of channels to be monitored can be set from
5 to 30, spaced by 100 Hz increments. You specify where to start
the monitoring with the Start frequency which has a range of 200 to 1000 Hz. Each monitored signal is represented by horizontally scrolling text. Select Continuous scrolling for a marquee format. The text line will extinguish after the Inactivity timeout value in seconds is reached.

Fldigi
can act as both a server and a client for PskMail, a separate
application from fldigi. These two factors are in support of the
PskMail server.
If you operate fldigi as the modem for a PskMail Server you can specify
that fldigi use the psk sweetspot and that its +/- automatic signal
search range be limited by the number of Hertz entered in the Server search range control.
