5.6 Custom Survey
The Custom Survey page (Figure 81) displays two separate charts that can be configured to show different radio
channel characteristics over three time scales (seconds, minutes, or hours). The custom survey is similar to the
channel survey (see the previous section) except that it allows two sets of channel-related data to be displayed
—
which is useful for diagnosing channel utilization problems.
The default selection on the Custom Survey page shows the total percentage of transmitted frames over a
60-second period in chart one, and the total percentage of received frames over a 60-second period in chart two.
From this default view you can determine if there are too many transmissions being sent from this radio and if there
are too many radio messages being received from other sites in the radio network. To display different data, select
the data components from the drop-down list, select a time interval, and click Save Changes to refresh the graphs.
Each graph displays a percent channel utilization using the selected criteria and time interval (seconds, minutes or
hours).
