Inspector
This creates a hovering box above the cursor that displays specific numbers regarding a
particular frequency amplitude point.
Waterfall View
This 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 levels 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 turned on or a cordless phone changes channels, it is very noticeable in the
Waterfall View.

Device Interferers Table
When connected to a CleanAir AP, Chanalyzer will begin populating the Interfering Devices
table with any non-Wi-Fi transmitters that are detected. The table is fully filterable by
Device Type, Severity, Duty Cycle, and Signal Strength.
