The percentage of transceivers being indoor and outdoor can be selected thanks to this panel. . It will work in combination with the chosen propagation model that you will select. By default the transmitter and receiver are located outdoor. For each elements of the link, it is possible to add   or remove   a probablity probability of indoor.

Attenuation of external walls separating indoor and outdoor propagation environments. This parameter is  associated to the selected propagation model model.

Wall loss stdandard deviation (indoor - outdoor)
Wall loss standard deviation associated to the selected propagation model.


Note that when opening a workspace created prior to SEAMCAT version 5, all settings are mapped to the current SEAMCAT version running on your machine. As the parameter local environment didn’t exist before version 5, a warning may appear indicating that “local environments are skipped for multiple interfering links”. This means that SEAMCAT was not able to automatically set the parameters of the local environments (most likely due to a scenario with multiple interferers). Therefore, there is a need to edit the local environment manually.
