Functions of the software module

The "Spectral Scan" software module enables you to run a spectral analysis directly on the access point. There is no need to purchase any additional software or hardware as the integrated features can be used to analyze the frequency ranges and bands in question. This gives you a graphical overview of the frequency response characteristics within your WLAN at all times, so that you can detect interference and safeguard against it.

Clicking on the menu optionExtras > Spectral scan in WEBconfig opens the window shown below:

The Spectral Scan can also be started from LANmonitor. To do this, right-click the relevant device in the list and select Display spectral scan in the context dialog.





Important: When the WLAN module is disabled (Setup > Interfaces > WLAN > Operational), a message is displayed and the spectral scan cannot be started. Configure the access point for "Base station" operation or ensure that a WLC configures the AP.

The following entries, buttons and selection menus are available here:

Important: During the analysis, the WLAN module being analyzed does not send any data or transmit any SSID.
