hi guys

im trying to create a script that when an access point is in range i here audiable beeps deepending on the current SNR. I rarely have more then 1 ap active at anyone time.

im new to net stumbler so im not sure the functions that i can use

i want there to be a pause inbetween the beeps relating to the current SNR

instead of OnScanResult will need to use something like OnAPActive

i will want this to run constantly whilst im running ns, in a way it will help me to locate the best snr quickly and easily

Sub OnScanResult(BestSNR)
If BestSNR >= 60 Then
PlaySound "beep.WAV"
ElseIf BestSNR >= 50 Then
WAIT(NOW()+"00:00:00.2")
PlaySound "beep.WAV"
ElseIf BestSNR >= 40 Then
WAIT(NOW()+"00:00:00.4")
PlaySound "beep.WAV"
ElseIf BestSNR >= 30 Then
WAIT(NOW()+"00:00:00.6")
PlaySound "beep.WAV"
ElseIf BestSNR >= 20 Then
WAIT(NOW()+"00:00:00.8")
PlaySound "beep.WAV"
ElseIf BestSNR >= 10 Then
WAIT(NOW()+"00:00:01")
PlaySound "beep.WAV"
Else
End If
End Sub

p.s. do i simply put paste this into notepad and save as *.txt

Have you tried the default script?

wrzwaldo knows. The default script and sounds do this already.

but where do i adjust this default script?

i cant find it anywhere in the ns program folder

by finding the default script i could learn how it works and slowly make adjustments to suit my preferences

It is internal, so you can't adjust it. It is possible to modify it, save it, and run it as an External Script.

You can't find it in the folder, because it is internal to the NS EXE file. However a search on the phrase "default script" would bring it up quick enough, right here in the Scripts Forum.

The first time is a freebie. After this, you'll need to figure out how to do your own searches, or you'll get flamed to death.

Code:

' Default event handler script

'Sub OnEnableScan
' PlaySound "SSROAM.WAV"
'End Sub

'Sub OnDisableScan
' PlaySound "SSROAM.WAV"
'End Sub

'Sub OnScanStart
' PlaySound "Windows XP Balloon.WAV"
'End Sub

'Sub OnScanResult(SSID, BSSID, CapFlags, Signal, Noise, LastSeen) ' NOT YET
' SSID : String : SSID (Network name)
' BSSID : String : BSSID (MAC address)
' CapFlags : Integer : 802.11 capability flags
' Signal : Integer : signal level (dBm)
' Noise : Integer : noise level(dBm)
' LastSeen : Time : When this BSSID was last seen
'End Sub

Sub OnScanComplete(FoundNew, SeenBefore, LostContact, BestSNR) ' NOT YET
' FoundNew : Integer : Count of new BSSIDs
' SeenBefore : Integer : Count of not-new BSSIDs
' LostContact : Integer : Count of BSSIDs missed since last scan
' BestSNR : Integer : SNR of strongest signal (dBm)

' MsgBox "OnScanComplete " & FoundNew & " " & SeenBefore & " " & LostContact & " " & BestSNR
If FoundNew>0 Then
PlaySound "ns-aos-new.WAV"
ElseIf LostContact>0 Then
PlaySound "ns-los.WAV"
ElseIf SeenBefore>0 Then
' Still seeing some
If BestSNR >= 60 Then
PlaySound "ns-signal-6.WAV"
ElseIf BestSNR >= 50 Then
PlaySound "ns-signal-5.WAV"
ElseIf BestSNR >= 40 Then
PlaySound "ns-signal-4.WAV"
ElseIf BestSNR >= 30 Then
PlaySound "ns-signal-3.WAV"
ElseIf BestSNR >= 20 Then
PlaySound "ns-signal-2.WAV"
ElseIf BestSNR >= 10 Then
PlaySound "ns-signal-1.WAV"
Else
PlaySound "ns-signal-0.WAV"
End If
Else
' Nothing seen
' PlaySound "ns-tick.WAV"
End If
End Sub

Dim GPSOk
GPSOk = True

Sub OnGPSTimeout
If GPSOk Then
GPSOk = False
PlaySound "ns-gps-err.WAV"
End If
End Sub

Sub OnGPSNoFix
If GPSOk Then
GPSOk = False
PlaySound "ns-gps-err.WAV"
End If
End Sub

Sub OnGPSPosition (Lat, Lon, Alt)
' Lat : double : Latitude, degrees east
' Lon : double : Longitude, degrees north
' Alt : double : Altitude above sea level, meters
GPSOk = True
End Sub

'Sub OnGPSSpeed (Speed)
' Speed : double : Speed, knots
'End Sub

Another (arguably better) alternative would be to enable MIDI (last tab of Options). Many modern sound cards support it, and the pitch will change depending on how near/far you are, and it's quicker than playing a sound file - check it out!
