Axis Labels

Show Frequencies

Click "Inspector" on the Side Bar. This will allow you to hover over a point in any of the displays to get the Frequency, Amplitude, and Popularity. This function will work live, and on pause.

Markers

Chanalyzer 3.0 allows the user to mark certain points on the spectrum by double-clicking. To remove them, simply double click on the marker you would like to remove.

Channels

Make sure you have WiFi chosen on the axis label (link), then select one of the channels (1-11), and you will be able to display the general range the WiFi uses. You can use this to troubleshoot and visually see what channels generally overlap and where interferencing may possibly be occurring. To remove the overlay, simply click the channel on the axis label again.

Signatures

'Signatures' is one of the great new tools Metageek has implemented to help users identify shapes in the spectrum. When Signatures is selected on the right navigation tab, there will be several options listed; 802.11b, 802.11g, 802.11n, Uniden Cordless Phone, and Wireless Mouse/Keyboard.
