📦 Unboxing the AI Pro

When you first launch the AI Pro application, a welcoming screen appears. From here, you have the option to create a new project, open one from your local drive, or access it from the Ecahal cloud. In this article, we will explore the new layouts and features introduced in the AI Pro.

The New Layouts and Features

Upon opening the AI Pro, the first striking change you'll Notice is the cool new dark theme. However, that's just the beginning. The layouts have been completely revamped to focus on improving usability. One of the key highlights of this update is the introduction of separate workspaces: Design, Inspect, Survey, and Live.

Workspaces for Improved Usability

1. Design Workspace

The design workspace is where you bring your floor maps to life. It serves as a central hub for defining buildings, drawing walls, and setting up your wireless network. You can define requirement areas, specify wireless network settings, and even utilize automatic tools for access point placement. The goal is to make the entire process of defining your environment more intuitive.

2. Inspect Workspace

The inspect workspace is all about data analysis. By selecting any spot on the map, you can immediately see the connections and which access points are detected in that location. The right-HAND side displays the updated values, showing whether the selected spot meets the specified requirements. Moreover, you can also analyze spectrum and waterfall graphs for each selected spot or view a summary of the whole floor. This workspace proves to be a handy tool for analyzing data efficiently.

3. Survey Workspace

If you're familiar with our iOS mobile server application, the survey workspace will feel like home. This workspace is designed specifically for on-site surveys, whether continuous or stop-and-go. It provides all the necessary capabilities to perform comprehensive surveys right on-site.

4. Live Workspace

Now, let's dive into the most interesting workspace of all - the live workspace. This is where the true power of Sidekiq, our AI wireless network analyzer, comes into play. With your Sidekick connected, you can Visualize the spectrum in real-time, select different access points, view waterfall graphs, and switch between radius and channels view. In AI Pro, we've also added the ability to switch between different color schemes for improved accessibility.

Analyzing Data in the Inspect Workspace

The inspect workspace in AI Pro offers a robust set of tools for analyzing data. By selecting any spot on the map, you can Instantly view the connections and access points detected in that location. The right-hand side continuously updates to show if the selected spot meets the specified requirements. This makes it incredibly convenient to analyze data and ensure that all requirements are met in each location.

Moreover, you can take your analysis further by selecting spots on the survey path. This allows you to view the spectrum graph and waterfall graph from your Sidekick, providing a detailed view of the wireless environment. You can scroll through measurements and analyze them separately. Alternatively, deselecting everything gives you a summary of the entire floor and requirement areas, allowing you to gauge whether the requirements are being met overall.

On-Site Surveys with the Survey Workspace

The survey workspace in AI Pro is specifically designed for on-site surveys. Whether you prefer continuous or stop-and-go survey methods, this workspace provides all the necessary capabilities to conduct thorough surveys. By utilizing this workspace, you can Gather data directly on-site, enabling you to make more informed decisions regarding your wireless network design and optimization.

Real-Time Monitoring with the Live Workspace

The live workspace is undoubtedly the most captivating feature of AI Pro. With Sidekiq connected, you gain access to real-time spectrum views, allowing you to visualize the wireless environment instantaneously. You can select different access points, view waterfall graphs, and switch between radius and channels views. Additionally, the ability to switch color schemes enhances accessibility for users who may have difficulty distinguishing certain colors. The live workspace empowers you to monitor and analyze your wireless network with unprecedented real-time visibility.

Network Filtering and Heatmap Analysis

One of the powerful tools introduced in AI Pro is the network filter. Not only can you filter out custom access point groups, but you can also filter out specific networks or view all networks simultaneously. This enables you to analyze your heatmaps and performance metrics selectively. By customizing access point groups, you can focus on specific areas or zones of your environment to gain deeper insights into network performance and coverage.

Custom Access Point Grouping

In AI Pro, you have the flexibility to define custom access point groups. By selecting specific access points and marking them with colors, you can create custom groups that are automatically added to the filter. This feature allows you to streamline your analysis by selecting and analyzing specific groups of access points. Whether it's a particular area or a subset of access points, custom grouping provides a powerful way to dissect and evaluate your wireless network performance.

Conclusion

The AI Pro is a Game-changer when it comes to wireless network analysis and optimization. With its new layouts and intuitive workspaces, conducting on-site surveys and analyzing data has never been easier. The real-time monitoring capabilities in the live workspace, coupled with the power of Sidekiq, provide unmatched visibility into your wireless network. The network filtering and custom access point grouping features further enhance analysis capabilities and enable you to make data-driven decisions. Upgrade to AI Pro and unleash the full potential of your wireless network.
