RF Syncing to StrataSync using an ONX-

620/630

RF Synchronization Steps
• Make sure your meter’s CM MAC Address/Addresses has/have been provisioned
with your CMTS correctly. Note: Most people choose to provision only CM MAC 1 as
that is the default CM MAC address auto-selected by the meter. You can locate your CM
MAC addresses information under System Settings -> Hardware and Software Revisions
-> under Cable Measurement -> CM MAC 1, 2, 3, 4 & 5

• Make sure you are selecting the correct CM Mac address that you provisioned for the
region you are testing in this region’s/network area CMTS/Billing System
(OneCheck/DOCSIS Check -> Configure -> DOCSIS Service Plan)

• Go to the Connection application -> wait until you get an IP address -> once you get
an IP address -> select “Sync” -> this will take you to the StrataSync application.
• Once in the StrataSync menu -> verify that your settings such as account ID, tech ID,
server address (StrataSync.ViaviSolutions.com or jdsu.viavisolutions.com), are all
correct and the server port is listed as 443.
• Hit “Start” -> wait for successful sync message.

Troubleshooting RF Sync issues:


➢ Make sure you are selecting the correct CM Mac address that you provisioned to your
CMTS (DOCSIS Service Plan). Please see steps above.
➢ Make sure your meter has been provisioned with your CMTS correctly. What
happens when you go to CATV -> Connection -> do you get an IP Address?
- If you do not get an IP, this could indicate that your meter is not provisioned to
your CMTS correctly. Please ensure your selected CM MAC has been provisioned
correctly.
- If you get an IP address, then press the “Home” key, and then go to System -> Web
Browser -> update the URL to a website address e.g. “google.com”. If you are unable
to navigate to the website, get a “Welcome to an Activation Page” message, or
you get an error message, then this means your CM MAC address is not provisioned
correctly. You need to get your selected CM MAC address re-provisioned/added into
your billing system/CMTS correctly.
➢ There could be a connectivity issue in your network. Try RF Syncing your test at a
different location.
➢ Check to make sure the RF connectors are well-tightened or try with new RF barrel
connectors. Also make sure that the Coax cable is well connected to RF port 1.
➢ Check StrataSync Settings. While in the StrataSync application, press the “sys-tray” key
(button to the right of the home key) -> select StrataSync Settings -> Make sure that the
“Use Proxy Server” settings box is NOT checked; please uncheck it if so, and then try
syncing again.
