AMS Wireless SNAP-ON™ Application
The AMS Wireless SNAP-ON™ application gives users more power to manage their wireless networks. With this application, users upload an image of their process unit for customized planning of their wireless network.
- Plan your wireless network and compare it to best design practices
- Troubleshoot your wireless network quickly and easily
- Maintain your wireless network with reports of key network parameters
Drag and drop functionality enables quick and accurate plotting of devices. Once the layout is complete, the AMS Wireless SNAP-ON application checks the plan against Emerson factory-recommended best practices and visually identifies deviations from best practices to allow the user to update their network layout.
After the self-organizing network is installed, the AMS Wireless SNAP-ON application provides a comprehensive view of the wireless network by graphically displaying the parent-child communication paths and other key diagnostic and performance parameters. This helps the user identify potential trouble spots, such as pinch points or low power modules.
