By adding minimal information about your buildings and floors at your 
site, you support improved monitoring for your network. You can 
manually add building and floor information or you can import a floor. 
For information about importing a floor plan, see “Import a Floor Plan” 
on page 126.

1 Select the RF Planning tool bar option.

2 In the Organizer panel, click the name of the network plan. 

3 Select Create Site in the Task List panel. The Create Site wizard, a series 

of dialog boxes, prompts you for information about the new site.

4 In the Site Name box, type a name for the site (1 to 80 alphanumeric 

characters, with no spaces or tabs), and click Next.

5 To change the Country Code, select the country where the network is to 

be deployed in the Country Code list.

6 In the Channel Set (802.11b/g) list, select the set of operating channels 

for any 802.11b/g MAP radios you plan to use (if different from the 
default), and click Next.

site, and click Finish.

When you specify the number of buildings a site contains, 3WXM creates 
each building using the default settings. You can edit the buildings 
3WXM creates or you can add new buildings.

alphanumeric characters, with no spaces or tabs), and click Next.

4 In the Number Of Floors box, specify how many floors the building has.

When you specify the number of floors a building contains, 3WXM 
creates each floor using the default settings. You can edit the floors
