To indicate the direction of the antenna's coverage, change the value in
the Directionality of antenna box. The default value of 0 degrees directs
the antenna's coverage to the right on the floor plan. For example, to
move the coverage 90 degrees (so that the antenna's area of coverage
faces downward as you view the floor plan), type 90 in the box.
You can verify and change the antenna's coverage direction after you
finish using this wizard. To verify the antenna's coverage, select the MAP
on the floor plan, right-click, and select Show RF Coverage and 802.11b
or 802.11g from the dropdown list. To adjust the coverage, select the
MAP, right-click, and select Edit Properties from the dropdown list to
display the Modify MAP or Modify DAP wizard. In the wizard, click Next
to display the configuration page for the radio, and edit the value in the
Directionality of antenna box.
3WXM assumes that the external antenna will be installed so that the
front faces in the direction of coverage (not up or down), and so that the
antenna cable connector faces down or up and not to the side. 3WXM
also assumes that the antenna does not provide any coverage behind
itself.
The Antenna Type and Directionality of antenna boxes appear only if the
MAP model supports an external antenna.
