Clicking the Accumulate button changes the behavior of the AP scan list. Instead of displaying only the 
current AP scan list, the list includes all of the access points (based on MAC address) that have appeared 
in the scan list since the Accumulate button was last clicked. 

After a scan line is added to the list, it is never removed nor updated with new scan information unless 
the signal strength (RSSI) of the latest scan is greater than or equal to any detected previously from that 
access point. The Time of Day field, which appears only in Accumulate mode, indicates the date and 
time when the signal strength of each access point was at its maximum.

The Accumulate mode provides a convenient way to list all access points within a facility, not just those 
that may be visible at one time from a particular location. By using the information in the Time of Day 
field with a site map and a wristwatch, you may be able to determine the approximate location of each 
access point in the list.

Clicking the Accumulate button again deactivates the Accumulate mode and returns the current AP scan 
list.

You can use the Save AP Scan List and Open AP Scan List options in the AP Scanning drop-down menu 
to save and reload accumulated scan lists back into the application at a later time.

You can use the site survey utility’s proximity beeper to identify areas where wireless coverage is good 
or weak based on the client adapter’s proximity to access points within a particular area. The beeper can 
be set to sound as the client adapter approaches or moves farther away from an access point.

Follow these steps to configure the proximity beeper.

Choose Options from the site survey utility’s Action drop-down menu. The Options window appears
