Color by Density
The more often a signal is detected at a specific
amplitude and frequency, the brighter the point on the
graph becomes. Low density signals are represented
by dark blue, and high density signals are represented
by red.
Color by Amplitude
Chanalyzer creates a density map of the most used
points in the user-selected timespan. The less
trafficked frequency points appear more transparent,
while high-use frequencies appear more bright or
intense.
Chanalyzer uses color to represent amplitude height.
Reds indicate higher amplitude and dark blues are
lower amplitudes levels.
Display Options
The Density View has several view options that can
be toggled on and off. Users can employ
combinations of these options to troubleshoot more
efficiently.
Waterfall View
The Waterfall View graphs amplitude over time for
each frequency in the selected ISM band. The
Waterfall View uses a color scale to represent
amplitude levels – low are dark blue while high
amplitudes are bright red. This emphasizes instances
where wireless devices like cordless phones or
microwaves may have changed the spectrum. For
example, when a microwave is started or a cordless
phone changes channels, it is very noticeable in the
Waterfall View.
Details Pane
The Details pane (bottom-right of Navigation pane) contains a number of tabs with more in-depth information
about Wi-Fi networks and recorded Wi-Spy data. You can quickly alternate between tabs by pressing CTRL +
TAB.
