Chapter 4 — On-Site Mapping

4-1

Introduction

NEON Signal Mapper integrates with the handheld spectrum analyzers to pull in signal data 
and place it on a map. The NEON Signal Mapper app includes a visualizer that displays the 
signal strength of a custom set signal on a floor plan image for real time visualization and 
debugging. This chapter provides the basic On-Site Mapping process. Refer to the NEON 
Signal Mapper website and follow the NEON Signal Mapper procedures and menu interfaces 
to perform On-Site Mapping.

Pair the Tracking Unit and Android Device

The NEON Tracking Unit is a small, wearable device that collects inertial and pressure data 
used by Signal Mapper to calculate user location. It connects over Bluetooth to your Android 
phone or tablet.
Before pairing the tracking unit and the Android device, turn on the tracker by pressing the 
power button. The top LED blinks green (Anchor mode) when power-on is complete. 

NFC Touch Pairing

Touch the TRX logo on the tracking unit to the back of the phone to pair with NFC Touch 
Pairing. After pairing is successful, the top LED on the tracker will blink blue, indicating it is 
on and connected to NEON (Tracker mode). If Signal Mapper is not currently open, this will 
also launch the app.
For the most accurate position data, wear the unit facing front while tracking. Proceed to 

“Initialize Your Location with Signal Mapper” on page 4-2

.

If your Android device does not have NFC, continue with the instructions below to pair and 
connect manually.

Note

The tracking unit is detectable within the first two minutes of power-on. If you do 
not complete the pairing in time, turn the tracker off and on, then try again.
