Charts

Enable top chart Check the box to enable the top chart.

Select the desired chart to display in the top chart panel

on the main view. There are two options:

• Waterfall This time-based graph shows the aggregate

energy collected for each frequency since the start

of the airView session. The energy color designates

its amplitude. Cooler colors represent lower energy

levels (with blue representing the lowest levels)

in that frequency bin, and warmer colors (yellow,

orange, or red) represent higher energy levels in that

frequencybin.

The Waterfall View’s legend (top-right corner) provides

a numerical guide associating the various colors to

power levels (in dBm). The low end of that legend (left)

is always adjusted to the calculated noise floor, and the

high end (right) is set to the highest detected power

level since the start of the airView session.

• Channel Usage For each channel, a bar displays a

percentage showing the relative “crowdedness” of

that specific channel. To calculate this percentage, the

airView Spectrum Analyzer analyzes both the popularity

and strength of RF energy in that channel since the start

of an airView session.

Note: AF-5X channels are not related to Wi-Fi

channels which are determined by IEEE standards.

AF-5X channels are numbered consecutively

starting with 0 and are 28 MHz in width.

Enable Waveform chart (middle) Check the box to

enable the middle chart. This time-based graph shows

the RF signature of the noise environment since the

start of the airView session. The energy color designates

its amplitude. Cooler colors represent lower energy

levels (with blue representing the lowest levels) in that

frequency bin, and warmer colors (yellow, orange, or red)

represent higher energy levels in that frequency bin.

The spectral view over time will display the steady-state RF

energy signature of a given environment.

Enable Real-time chart (bottom) Check the box to

enable the bottom chart. This graph displays a traditional

spectrum analyzer in which energy (in dBm) is shown in

real time as a function of frequency. There are three traces

in this view:

• Current (Yellow) Shows the real-time energy seen by

the device as a function of frequency.

• Average (Green) Shows the running average energy

across frequency.

• Maximum (Blue) Shows updates and maximum power

levels across frequency.

Real-Time Traces

The following settings apply only to the Real-time chart:

Current Real-time Trace Check the Enable box to enable

the real-time trace. When enabled, the yellow outline on

the Real-time chart represents the real-time power level of

each frequency. The refresh speed depends on the FPS.
