86CHAPTER 5: PLANNING THE 3COM MOBILITY SYSTEM

Adjusting the Origin 3WXM uses a building’s origin point to understand what is above or below Point a given floor. When calculating RF coverage, 3WXM needs to understand where MAP access points on adjacent floors are located so that 3WXM can

take RF from those MAPs into account when assigning channels.

If an imported drawing has an origin point defined, 3WXM tries to use that origin point. Otherwise, 3WXM places the origin point in the upper left corner of the drawing by default.

You are not required to use the upper left corner of the building as the origin point. You can select an easily identifiable feature on all floors, such as an elevator shaft. Or, to include additional features that are not on the floor itself, you can extend the drawing beyond the exterior walls by moving the origin farther up and left.

To adjust the origin point

The following example shows a floor plan with an origin point in the upper left corner of the drawing.
