To obtain the latest configuration settings, software options and updates, and ownership
registration information, the OneExpert CATV can synchronize with a VIAVI server via the
internet. The synchronization also stores any user files saved on the unit to the StrataSync
server.
This procedure should be undertaken immediately upon receipt of the unit and on a regular
(daily) basis thereafter to ensure that the unit is as up-to- date as possible and to allow all
user information to be backed up. Before attempting to synchronize with StrataSync, please
confirm your server settings with your manger or your company's IT organization.
To sync with StrataSync
1. If you haven’t already done so, specify the user information on the User Info menu
(see "Specifying user information" on page 41 ). A valid account ID must be
entered in order to synchronize with the StrataSync server.
2. Connect the ONX to an active internet connection (Ethernet cable from cable
modem or router to ONX port 1 RJ-45 connector).
3. Verify the ONX has a valid IP Address.
