7" Modero Widescreen Touch Panels
In the Protected Setup page:
1. Press the Wireless Settings button (located on the lower-left) to open the Wireless Settings page.
2. Navigate to the Access Point MAC Address section of this page and press the on-screen
Site Survey button. This action launches the Site Survey page which displays a listing of all
detected WAPs in the communication range of the internal card.
The card scans its environment every four seconds and adds any new WAPs found to the list.
Every scan cycle updates the signal strength field.
Access points are tracked by MAC Address.
If the WAP’s SSID is set as a blank, then N/A is displayed within the SSID field.
If the WAP’s SSID is hidden (not broadcast) it will not show up on the site survey
screen but it can still be configured via the SSID field on the specified security mode
screen.
If a WAP is displayed in the list is not detected for 10 scans in a row it is then
removed from the screen. In this way, a user can walk around a building and see
access points come and go as they move in and out of range.
