5.4.5.12 Overriding Environmental Sensor Configuration

Overriding a Device Configuration
NOTE: This feature is available on the AP8132 model only.
An AP8132 sensor module is a USB environmental sensor extension to an AP8132 model access point. It provides a variety of
sensing mechanisms, allowing the monitoring and reporting of the AP8132's radio coverage area. The output of the sensor's
detection mechanisms are viewable using the Environmental Sensor screen.
To set an environmental sensor configuration for an AP8132 model access point:
1. Select the Configuration
2. Select Devices.
3. Select Device Overrides
4. Select Environmental Sensor.
5. Override or set the following

Light Sensor settings for the AP8132's sensor module:.
Select this option to enable the light sensor on the module. This setting is enabled by
default.
Define an interval in Seconds (2 - 201) or Minutes (1 - 4) for the sensor module to poll its
environment to assess light intensity to determine whether lighting is on or off. The
default polling interval is 11 seconds. Light intensity is used to determine whether the
access point's deployment location is currently populated with clients.
Select this option to power off the AP8132's radio's if the light intensity falls below the set
threshold. If enabled, select All (both AP8132 radios), radio-1 or radio-2.
