Initialize

Initialize the optimizing algorithm by clicking the Initialize button. This makes an initial placement of the APs and prepares RF Plan for the task of determining the optimum location for each AP. As soon as you click Initialize, you will see the AP symbols appear on the floor plan.

Colored circles around the AP symbols (shown in Figure 4-16) indicate the approximate coverage of the individual AP, and the color of the circle represents the channel on which the AP is operating. The circles appear after you select an approximate coverage value on one of the Floors pages. You can also click an AP icon and drag it to manually reposition it.
