7.3.2Accuracy

The Accuracy tab on the Toolbar allows you to set four levels of accuracy for RF computations with 1 being the lowest (default) and 4 being the highest. Computation time for creating RF maps increases with the accuracy level.

7.3.3Opacity

The Opacity option helps you view the floor model and coverage together. Select the Opacity value from the drop‐down list. Opacity value of 0% makes the coverage colors transparent while a value of 100% makes the coverage colors opaque.

7.3.4Show Grid

Click from the Toolbar to view the grid on the layout. This helps view the cell distance.

7.3.5View Layout Model

Click from the Toolbar to view the layout model. This helps you verify the locations of the devices placed on the layout along with the original .gif or .jpg image.

7.3.6Show RF Signal

Click . from the Toolbar to view the RF signals of the layout. This helps you view the color‐coded signal coverage of the devices on the layout, across different views.

7.3.7Show Spillage View

Click from the Toolbar to invoke the Spillage View. This view displays color‐coded RSSI distribution over and around the perimeter of the current layout. It helps you analyze the security exposure due to spillage of the signals outside the perimeter of the current layout. You can minimize the security threats from war drivers and eavesdroppers based on the results of the Spillage View. Planner assumes the area outside the layout to be free space for RF prediction.

Higher Sensor coverage outside the perimeter of the layout indicates a better coverage for security exposure. With larger coverage, a device that is far away from the layout perimeter can also be detected by the Sensor and the transmission can be prevented, if found malicious.
