Networks Graph
Click the Networks Graph to show signal strength over time, drawing the rows selected in the
Networks Table. Drops in signal strength indicate poor signal coverage and can be
referenced against the Waterfall and Density views to determine if interference is to blame.
Please note, this data comes from the wireless network card and not the Wi-Spy.
Device Finder
This view shows a signal strength over time graph similar to the Networks Graph, but also
shows the signal strength of a selected frequency range. Device Finder will enable you to
actively seek out transmitters so you can know exactly what is happening in your networks.
Amplify the results of Chanalyzer’s built-in device finding feature with our Device Finder
Directional Antenna, an accessory that allows you to track down offending devices quicker
than with a Wi-Spy alone. Don't let mystery devices stay a mystery.
Click and drag across the density pane to highlight a continuous interferer. A contextual
menu will appear. Select Device Finder.
Chanalyzer will now track the amplitude levels over time of the frequency selection made in
the density pane. As the user gets closer to the source, the line graph will trend upwards.
