    I'm having a problem getting any form of spectrum monitoring working with a couple of new AP-515s we purchased. The units are in Instant mode, connected to a Virtual Controller, and running 8.4. They are going to be put into a 'noisy' envirinment, some of which is going to be caused by us due to our business so I want to be able to see this noise and hopefully get these working with minimal drops.

     

    I've followed the instruction in the user guide but nothing I've been able to do will get me the Spectrum Monitor link. I've tried various settings by selecting an AP and setting its Radio mode to both Monitor and Spectrum Monitor. I've also played with the RF --> Radio settings and have enabled Background spectrum monitor.

     

    When looking at the Info of the Access Point, I am able to change 'Mode' with my settings but 'Spectrum' always reports as "Disabled". Can anyone give me some suggestions?

    In the initial code supporting the 510 Series (AOS/Instant 8.4), spectrum analysis is not supported (see datasheet, look for asterisks).

    Spectrum analysis support will be added in the upcoming 8.5 release.

    I just downloaded 8.6.2 instant code. The release notes do not show any information about spectrum being available. Any idea when it will be added?

    Thanks

    Spectrum analysis is not currently supported on AP-50x and AP-51x. It's planned to be added in 8.7.
