The following icons or dashboards could indicate a situation that requires immediate attention:

Table 1-3.  Navigator health issues

1.8.3

Communication alert troubleshooting

The Wireless Planning tool, AMS Wireless SNAP-ON, can help by providing more 
information for communication alerts. In live mode, it displays the communication 
relationships between devices, giving a comprehensive overview of the network and 

identifying trouble spots, such as pinch points. 

1.8.4

Device alert troubleshooting

AMS Configurator or AMS Device Manager (depending on Navigator version) can 
provide recommended actions for advanced troubleshooting of device alerts 
remotely. From the device explorer view, a Gateway will display all devices connected 

to it. Knowing the tag of the device with the alert, the DD for the specific device can be found 
and opened by double clicking the icon of the corresponding tag in AMS Device Manager.
