Usage Guidelines
There are two ways to change an W-AP104, W-AP105, W-AP175 series, W-AP120 series, W-AP130 series, or W-
AP90 series into a spectrum monitor. You can assign that AP to a 802.11a and 802.11g radio profile that is already
set to spectrum mode, or you can temporarily change the AP into a spectrum monitor using a local spectrum
override profile. When you use a local spectrum override profile to override an AP's mode setting, that AP will begin
to operate as a spectrum monitor, but will remain associated with its previous 802.11a and 802.11g radio profiles. If
you change any parameter (other than the overridden mode parameter) in the spectrum monitor's 802.11a or 802.11
radio profiles, the spectrum monitor will immediately update with the change. When you remove the local spectrum
override, the spectrum monitor will revert back to its previous mode, and remain assigned to the same 802.11a and
802.11 radio profiles as before.
