4.6.3 Performing a Site Survey with the SA-PCR
You can run a Site Survey to compare reception at various locations. This is
extremely useful when first setting up the wireless LAN, since you can easily
determine where reception is good or bad, and where many Access Points overlap.
⇒
To run a Site Survey:
1. Open the Site Survey utility.
2. Click Survey Log to expand the bottom of the Site Survey window.
3. Bring the station to a new location.
4. Click Record. Type in the name of the location and a remark, and click OK.
The signal details of the current location appear in the Survey Log at the bottom
of the window.
5. Repeat steps 2 and 3 with other locations. The recorded readings should give
you a good idea of where reception is good or bad, and where many APs
overlap unnecessarily.
6. When you are done recording, click Print. A site survey report appears
containing information about each recorded location including signal strength
of associated AP and of neighbor APs. You can print the file by clicking the
Print button, or save the file by clicking the Diskette button. You can save the
file as text, or as a QRP file which can be viewed using this application only.
