Click Configuration > Wireless > DCS.

Select Enable Dynamic Channel Selection to turn on this feature.
3
Set the DCS Time Interval. This is how often the NXC surveys the other APs
within its broadcast radius. If you place your APs in an area with a large number of
competing APs, set this number lower to ensure that your device can adjust
quickly changing conditions.
4
Select DCS Sensitivity Level. This is how sensitive the APs on your network are
to other channels. Generally, as long as the area in which your AP is located has
minimal interference from other devices you can set the DCS Sensitivity Level to
Low. This means that the AP has a very broad tolerance.
5
Select Enable DCS Client Aware. Select this so that the APs on your network do
not change channels as long as any wireless clients are connected to them. When
they must change channels, they will wait until all stations disconnect first.
6
Select a 2.4 GHz Channel Deployment scheme. Choose Three-Channel
Deployment to have the device rotate through 3 channels. Choose Four-
Channel Deployment to have the device rotate through 4 channels, if allowed.
