Summit WM3000 Series Controller System Reference Guide 299
Applications (users) inform SOLE (wireless LAN controller) about a facility map, location of
infrastructure and zones. A zone is an area of specific interest with respect to whenever an asset
becomes visible or invisible in that area.
SOLE uses the following input variables as needed for the specific tag type calculating location:
User configurations
RSSI propagation based on facility layout and RF barriers as specified by the user
Smart surroundings (fixed wireless devices such as printers, price verifiers, near me tags as installed
in the facility)
Runtime RF environment
SOLE is capable of providing locationing from external 3rd party location engines such as Aeroscout,
and Ekahau. SOLE also has a self learning process that adapts with a changing environment. SOLE also
provides an open platform for supporting new architectures, future algorithms or newer asset types.
Defining Site Parameters
In order for the locationing engine to function properly the site parameters must first be defined. Sites
are defined on an X,Y axis with the upper left corner of the site being assigned a value of 0,0. When the
locations of tags are displayed, they are displayed in the same X,Y format relative to the origin value of
0,0.
To configure your site parameters:
