Setting Default Description
Laptop Min/Max
(sec)
90/360
This timer determines how often to calculate the location for laptop (non-
legacy) devices. Taken with the data samples the calculation acts as
follows:
l After the minimum timer (default is 90 seconds), check to see if the
number of data samples received from all APs that hear this client are
greater than or equal to the number of samples setting for legacy laptop
devices (default of 3 data samples).
l If so (Yes to question above), then recalculate the client device's location
based on the samples received.
l If not (No to the question above), then wait until the number of sample
setting is met before recalculating. If the number of samples is never met,
wait until the maximum timer (default is 360 seconds) and then
recalculate.
Laptop Number of
Samples
3 See definition above.
Phone Min/Max (sec) 60/240
This timer determines how often to calculate the location of phones. Taken
with the data samples the calculation acts as follows:
l After the minimum timer (default is 60 seconds), check to see if the
number of data samples received from all APs that hear this client are
greater than or equal to the number of samples setting for legacy laptop
devices (default of 3 data samples).
l If so (Yes to question above), then recalculate the client device's location
based on the samples received.
l If not (No to the question above), then wait until the number of sample
setting is met before recalculating. If the number of samples is never met,
wait until the maximum timer (default is 240 seconds) and then
recalculate.
Phone Number of
Samples
3 See definition above.
RFID Min/Max (sec) 30/120
This timer determines how often to calculate the location of RFIDs (such as
devices with tag readers for tracking). Taken with the data samples the
calculation acts as follows:
l After the minimum timer (default is 30 seconds), check to see if the
number of data samples received from all APs that hear this client are
greater than or equal to the number of samples setting for legacy laptop
devices (default of 4 data samples).
l If so (Yes to question above), then recalculate the client device's location
based on the samples received.
l If not (No to the question above), then wait until the number of sample
setting is met before recalculating. If the number of samples is never met,
wait until the maximum timer (default is 120 seconds) and then
recalculate.
