VisiWave Site Survey

The following items are included in this package:

  1. VisiWave Site Survey Application
  2. This software application runs on a Windows laptop computer and is responsible for both collecting the survey information in the field and creating reports that clearly document the results of the survey and the state of your wireless environment.

  3. Support and Maintenance
  4. Each VisiWave license includes free support for the lifetime of the product. Support includes email and call-back technical support along with free access to maintenance releases (release where only the third number in the version number changes).

System Requirements

Required

  • Windows 7/8/8.1/10/11
  • The data collection application requires a laptop PC running Microsoft Windows version 7/8/8.1/10/11 that is portable enough to be carried while performing a site survey. Windows 7/8/8.1/10/11 provides support for many wireless network adapters.

  • Portable Document File (PDF) viewer such as Acrobat or FoxIt Reader
  • Viewing the user's guide requires a PDF viewer application such as Adobe's Acrobat Reader or FoxIt Software's FoxIt Reader. Also, site survey reports generated in the PDF format require a viewer to be viewed. You can optionally generate reports in HTML format which do not require this viewer. To download Adobe Acrobat Reader, visit Adobe's Web site at: http://www.adobe.com/. To download FoxIt Reader, go to http://www.foxitsoftware.com/.

  • Supported Wireless Adapter
  • A supported external USB or integrated wireless network adapter is required. A free utility called VisiWave CheckAdapter is available for download. This utility tests your wireless adapter to see if it is supported.

    View a partial list of support adapters. In some cases, the latest drivers from the adapter manufacturer may be required.

  • OpenGL Capable Graphics Adapter (Pro version only)
  • VisiWave Site Survey Pro requires a computer with a graphics adapter and driver that support OpenGL v3.0 or later. Most modern laptops and tablets provide this support, but some older or low-end computers might not.

  • Memory Requirements for VisiWave Site Survey Pro
  • Performing RF simulations for doing predictive surveys can require a large amount of computer memory. We recommend at least 8GB of RAM. If you have less than this, you may not be able to complete simulations that are more complicated.

  • Supported Floor Plan Image
  • You will need a "top view" or "bird's eye view" of the survey area. This image can be in GIF, JPEG, PNG, TIFF, or Windows BMP format. If you currently have a CAD drawing of your area, most CAD programs can export a floor plan view in JPEG format. Or, you can scan in a paper-version of your floor plan. Or, you can take a digital picture of a floor plan sign, such as a building directory or the fire-escape map found on the back of hotel room doors. In the worst case, you can create a rough drawing by hand of the walls of the area being surveyed. If you are surveying an outside area, you can use screen captures of any of the many online mapping services or scanned in images of printed maps.

Optional

  • Wi-Spy Spectrum Analyzer
  • This USB device is required in order to collect spectrum (interference) data using VisiWave.

  • Utility Cart
  • A utility cart of some type works very well for carrying your laptop while conducting an indoor site survey. Placing the laptop on the cart allows you to easily click on the screen and gets rid of the burden of having to carry the laptop.

VisiWave Traffic

The following items are included in this package:

  1. VisiWave Traffic Application

    This software application runs on a Windows laptop computer and allows you to analyze and visualize your wireless traffic.

  2. Support and Maintenance

    Each VisiWave Traffic license includes free support for the lifetime of the product. Support includes email and call-back technical support along with free access to maintenance releases (release where only the third number in the version number changes).

System Requirements

  • Windows 7/8/8.1/10/11
  • You will need a PC running Microsoft Windows version 7, 8, 8.1, 10, or 11.

  • OpenGL Graphics Adapter
  • You will need a graphics adapter that supports OpenGL and is compatible with the software. This comes standard with most modern computers. For the best performance, you may want to install an advanced graphics adapter.

  • Supported Wireless Adapter
  • To capture wireless packets from within VisiWave Traffic, you will need a wireless adapter with an NDIS driver that supports monitor mode. You can test your wireless adapters within the program by selecting Test Adapter under the Capture menu.
