Did you try it on the github-pages where this is coming from?

wiedehopf/graphs1090: Graphs for readsb / dump1090-fa / dump1090 (based on dump1090-tools by mutability) (github.com)

and there’s already a larger thread about it:

Graphs for dump1090 -- my version with install script

As i don’t like all the clutter the adsb receiver-project introduces, i’ve written an install script for the collectd graphs for dump1090. It is not widely tested yet and feedback regarding the layout of the graphs is very welcome. I’ve kept it rather close to the receiver-project. Installation and configuration are described on the github page: GitHub - wiedehopf/graphs1090: Graphs for readsb / dump1090-fa / dump1090 (based on dump1090-tools by mutability) If you already have graphs install…

thanks for the information. yes that’s right, I’ve installed this program on my RPi. however I can’t read this chart. because I didn’t find a manual to read it. I see a lot of information such as signal level, noise, mean level, peak level and others.

The graphs1090 graphs are based on Performance Graphs which were part of Joe Prochazka’s ADS-B Receiver project many years ago. His GitHub repository for that project still exists though his website is gone, and in the wiki in that repository is a page about his performance graphs which explains most of them: Performance Graphs · jprochazka/adsb-receiver Wiki · GitHub

Be aware that it’s for his original version of Performance Graphs. Some of the graph titles or colors in the newer graphs1090 are different (but the titles aren’t that different) and some graphs have been added.
