Feature/Function Description
Enable Location Tracking RSSI
Scan
Devices can report RSSI scan data to ADSP. This option allows you
to use that data in location tracking. Once this option is selected,
you can adjust the location tracking refresh rate from 1 to 60
seconds. The optimal rate is 1 second. (You must have a Proximity
and Analytics license before this option is visible.)
Scan Mode You can choose channels to monitor by selecting one of the
following scan modes:
• Default Scan - the table displays the channels that will be
scanned and is not editable.
• Extended Channel Scan - the table displays all standard
channels plus the extended channels that will be scanned.
• Extended and Emergency Channel Scan - the table displays all
channels including emergency channels that will be scanned.
• Custom Scan - the table displays all available channels and
allows you to select channels, select the 802.11N extension, and
set scan weight for each selected channel.
A scan weight of 1 specifies that the selected channel will be
scanned once during each scan rotation. A scan weight of 2
specifies that the selected channel will be scanned twice and so
forth. The scan sequence is determined by the specified scan
weights. All selected channels are initially scanned once during
the scan rotation. Any selected channels that have weights of 2
or more are then scanned again at the end of each rotation
period for the number of times specified by the weight value.
For example, if channels 1, 6 and 11 are assigned scan weights of
1, 2 and 2, the channel scan sequence is 1-6-11-6-11. Another
example is if channels 1, 5, 6 and 11 are assigned scan weights of
2, 1, 3 and 3, the channel scan sequence is 1-5-6-11-1-6-11-6-11.
• Channel Lock - used to lock a Sensor on a specific channel
for scanning. A drop-down menu is displayed where you can
select a channel.
Note: Note that all channels in the 2.4 and 5 GHz bands are grouped
together.
