When you change the Minimum Signal Decay exponent, Maximum Signal Decay exponent, Signal Decay
Slope (Beta), and Signal Decay Inflection (Alpha) the RF view and location tracking for unobstructed
regions is affected. In the obstructed regions, only Location Tracking is affected, RF view is not affected.
When you calibrate manually, the graph is automatically updated.
To calibrate RF views automatically, do the following.
1.
Go to Locations.
2.
From the location tree, select the location for which you want to calibrate RF views.
3.
Generate the RF Coverage/heatmap using the steps explained in the View RF Coverage/Heat Maps
section
4. Clicking the Calibration link. The Calibration dialog box appears.
5.
To calibrate automatically, click Calibrate under Automatic Calibration. The graph is updated when
you click Calibrate.
6.
To calibrate manually, change the values of the Signal Decay Slope (Beta) and the Signal Decay
Inflection (Alpha). The system uses these parameters when computing the RF and defines the region
around the transmitter that is unobstructed.
7.
Adjust the confidence.
8.
Click OK or Apply to complete calibration if you have adjusted the parameters manually such that the
two curves are parallel (but not coinciding).
Note: You can change the intrusion detection display threshold and the intrusion prevention display
threshold from Configuration>System>Advanced Settings>Live RF View Settings.
Zoom in / Zoom out Layout
The Zoom slider is to the left of the Locations page. Move the Zoom slider up, to zoom in the layout.
Move the Zoom slider down, to zoom out the layout.
Select an appropriate resolution for rendering of heat maps. A lower resolution would mean a much faster
rendering, although with a high pixelization effect. High resolution would mean a much slower rendering
due to a large number of pixel cells for which values are being calculated. You can zoom in to a maximum
of 400% of the actual size. You can zoom out to a minimum of 25% of the actual size of the layout image.
Adjust the Layout Opacity
Move the Opacity slider to the right and left to adjust the opacity of the layout. This slider is on the top
right side of the Locations page.
•
Decrease the image opacity to comprehend the RF coverage in a better way.
•
Increase the image opacity to pinpoint exact device placement information.
Add Note
You can add notes to the location layout. These notes could be additional explanatory text or comments
related to the devices or the layout, in general.
To add a note to a location layout, do the following.
1.
Go to Locations.
2.
Select the desired location. Ensure that the layout has been added. If the layout is not added, add a
layout first.
