The VFO B display normally shows the VFO B frequency. As you've probably discovered, it also shows decoded CW or DATA-mode text, menu entries, memory numbers and their labels, and the RIT/XIT offset (as you turn the offset knob).

You can also set up the VFO B display to show a variety of useful system parameters, including:

  time (24-hour)
  date (US or EU format)
  supply voltage
  current drain
  KPA3 heatsink temperature
  front panel compartment temperature

If you have the TECH MD menu entry set to ON, the list expands to include PLL voltages, audio output voltage (AFV), and dBV (audio level relative to most recent AFV reading). The latter is very useful for comparing signal levels (usually, you'd turn AGC OFF in this case).

To access these special displays, simply tap DISP, then rotate VFO B until you find the display of interest. Tap DISP again to return to the normal VFO B display.
