To access the Site Survey Tool:
1. From the Protected Setup page, press the Wireless Settings button to open the Wireless Settings page.
2. Press the Site Survey button. This action launches the Wireless Site Survey page, which displays a listing
of all detected APs in the communication range of the internal card.
The card scans its environment every four seconds and adds any new APs found to the list. Every
scan cycle updates the signal strength fields.
Access points are tracked by MAC Address.
If the AP’s SSID is set as a blank, then N/A is displayed within the SSID field.
If the AP’s SSID is not broadcast, it will not show up on the Wireless Networks screen.
If a AP is displayed in the list is not detected for 10 scans in a row, it is then removed from the
screen. In this way, a user can walk around a building and track access points as they move in and
out of range.
3. Sort the information provided on this page by pressing on a column name. This moves the sorting arrow
to that column, where it may be toggled up or down.
Up arrow - indicates that the information is being sorted in an ascending order.
Down arrow - indicates that the information is being sorted in a descending order.
4. Select a desired Access Point by touching the corresponding row. The up arrow and down arrow will be
grayed out if ten or fewer access points are detected. If more are detected, then they will be enabled as
appropriate so that the user can scroll through the list.
5. With the desired AP selected and highlighted, click the Connect button to be directed to the selected
security mode’s Settings page with the SSID field filled in. From there, either Cancel the operation or fill
in any necessary information fields and then click Save.
Selecting an Open, WEP, and WPA-PSK Access Point and then clicking Connect will open the
corresponding Settings page. For any other security mode, clicking Connect will only return to the
previous page without any information being entered.
In an Open security mode, after selection and connection to a target AP, the SSID name of the
selected AP is saved for the open security mode.
In a Static WEP security mode, after selection and connection to a WEP Access Point, the user is
then redirected back to the Static WEP security screen, where the SSID field is already filled out.
The user is only required to enter in the remaining WEP key settings.
A similar process occurs for WPA-PSK access points. For any other situation, the security mode
switches back to the previous page and security and connection parameters must be entered in as
usual.
If the panel detects more than 10 APs, the Up/Down arrows at the far right side of the
page become active (blue) and allow the user to scroll through the list of entries.
Access points using channel 8 should never be used, as the MVP-5200i may receive
too much interference from other devices in the area.
If active roaming between channels is necessary, make sure to enable the Active
Roaming on Channels 1,6,11 field in the Wireless Settings page (page 59).
