• NID without diplexer – The primary SmartID (connected to the SCH with a USB
cable) should be connected at the RG (in place of the RG), and the remaining
SmartID probes should be connected at the receivers (in place of the receivers).
• NID with diplexer – The primary SmartID (connected to the SCH with a USB
cable) should be connected at the RG (in place of the RG), and the remaining
SmartID probes should be connected at the receivers.
When a diplexer is on the network, the VDSL connection must be disconnected.
• INID – The primary SmartID (connected to the SCH with a USB cable) should
be connected at the INID coax connection feeding into the home (disconnected
from the INID), and the remaining SmartID probes should be connected at the
receivers.
When connecting a SmartID to a wall plate, it is recommended to use a coax
jumper cable of at least 3 feet in length.
Ensure that all devices except SmartIDs are disconnected from the network.
4. On the SmartID menu, select Whole Home Check .
5. On the Select SmartID Test Plan screen, select whether to test through a diplexer ( RG -
Through Diplexer ) or not ( RG - No Diplexer ).
• For the NID without diplexer configuration, select RG - No Diplexer .
• For the NID with diplexer configuration, select RG - Through Diplexer .
• For the INID configuration, select RG - No Diplexer .
6. Begin the test. During the test, a pop-up message appears if any of the following is
detected:
• Near-end connection issue (e.g. open, short, loose connection, poor fitting, poor
barrel on SmartID)
• Far-end connection issue (e.g. poor connection, fitting barrel, etc; partial short)
• SmartID(s) detected but not mapped issue
• SmartID mapping placement questionable (due to processed FDR data producing
ambiguous length/location data for the particular SmartID probe)
• Excessive noise ingress measured
• Network Map obscured message warning for diplexer, filter, amplifier, etc.
• Test fails if there is filter(s) or amplifier(s) present in the network
Note that the “RG – Through Diplexer” test allows a diplexer in the network.
After the test completes, the result test summary appears.
