3.2.2.1 Site Survey
The WQXM-PG Wi-Q Gateway has a built in Site Survey feature.
This part of the portal functionality allows the installer to conduct
an on-site survey of the wireless communication between the
Gateways and the Wi-Q Controllers without the use of a third-par-
ty application. This feature is useful when positioning the Gateway
antennas for optimal communication with the controllers. Addition-
ally, it helps the installer to identify the best channels to select for
the Wi-Q Gateway and controllers. We recommend a Site Survey
be performed during this step of the planning process. For addi-
tional information on the Survey Mode and how to use it, please
see “3.2.3.3 Survey Mode” on page
23.
3.2.2.2 Plotting the Plan
A Site Plan indicating building dimensions, distances between
buildings, possible obstructions, parking segment, and other gated
access points, contact the facilities maintenance or project engi-
neer if needed. If none are available, visit the site, take measure-
ments and draw up a plan. A sample plan is shown in figure 4.
3.2.2.3 Device Identification
Each device in the system will have its own unique identity. It will
be important to document that identity, along with capacities and
locations, and to give each device a common name such as “Park-
ing Garage” or “Admin 1”. At a minimum, record the Media Access
Control number (MAC address) for each device. This 12-digit num-
ber is assigned by the manufacturer of a network device so that it
can be recognized as a unique member of a network.
