Common Tools

Web Browser/Chromium

Some of the testing apps, like AutoTest, Ping/TCP, and Discovery, give you the option to Browse to internet addresses using a web browser application. AirCheck G3 has the Chromium browser pre-installed.

Telnet/SSH

The JuiceSSH application pre-installed. Both the AutoTest and Discovery apps provide links to start a Telnet or SSH session using the current device address. Selecting these options opens JuiceSSH and starts a session. You can also open JuiceSSH from the Apps screen.

The JuiceSSH app maintains a list of previous connections. When opened from a NetAlly app, JuiceSSH uses the first connection in the list that matches the IPv4 address or device name and type. If no match is found, a new connection entry is created and used.

As a third-party app, JuiceSSH contains its own tutorials. For additional help, tap the action overflow button at the top right of the JuiceSSH app screen, and select View our FAQ.

External Camera

The AirCheck G3 does not have a built-in camera, but you can use an external USB camera to take pictures to accompany Link-Live data. The pictures can be shared or uploaded to the Link-Live cloud service with test data. You can also edit or annotate pictures in the Gallery app. NetAlly has verified that the following cameras work with the app:

  • Logitech C270 HD Webcam

  • Microsoft LifeCam HD-3000
