Issue EcoStruxure Building Activate Flex Server fails the Wi-Fi Signal Strength test.   Product Line EcoStruxure Building Activate Environment EcoStruxure Building Activate Flex Server EcoStruxure Building Activate Partner Portal Cause If the Flex Server Gateway is configured on Wi-Fi, it must achieve a RSSI value greater than -75 or value does not go below -80 more than 3 times. If these conditions are not met, Gateway will fail the test.   Resolution Below steps should be checked/followed to check the issue: Check Network Type: Ignore this issue if gateway is using a GSM network Verify Wi-Fi Receiver: Ensure the Wi-fi receiver is properly inserted into the USB port of the gateway Optimize Placement: Make sure the Gateway is near or in line of sight with the router to improve signal strength. Restart Router: Restart the router and check with your network provider for any issues.

  Issue EcoStruxure Building Activate Flex Server doesn't pass the GSM Signal Strength test.   Product Line EcoStruxure Building Activate Environment EcoStruxure Building Activate Flex Server EcoStruxure Building Activate Partner Portal Cause The Flex Server must achieve a GSM Signal Strength greater than 14 to pass the test. If the signal strength is less than 14, the test will fail.   Resolution Below are the troubleshooting steps which should be checked/followed: Ensure the Gateway is located in an area with good network coverage. If possible, reposition the Gateway to improve signal strength. Verify that the APN settings for the SIM card in the Device Management Dashboard are correct. Change the network carrier and reconfigure the APN again

  Issue The LEDs on the Flex server indicate the status of the gateway's connection with the Internet and server. This document contains the details that will help in understanding the gateway status.   Product Line EcoStruxure Building Activate Environment ESXBFXSVR00B008 ESXBFXSVR0BC008 ESXBFXSVRBCW008 Cause The behavior of top LEDs and Bottom LEDs are different in terms of troubleshooting and understanding the Flex server state. Resolution The LED blink patterns are indicators used to check the status of the internet connection, server connection, SD card health, gateway firmware health, device connection, and data transfer.

  Issue While performing the verification tests, an error is displayed: 'error: There is no change in the configurations' as shown below:   Product Line EcoStruxure Building Activate Environment EcoStruxure Building Activate Partner Portal Cause This error occurs under the following conditions: The user made changes in the Partner Portal but later reverted to the original settings/configuration, assuming there should be some changes, and then started the verification tests again. The user chose to perform the test and verification process once post-submission, resulting in this error message. Resolution When the verification process is initiated, it goes through four checkpoints. The user can safely ignore this error message and proceed with the tests directly. Clicking on the 'Load Mapping' button will remove this error message.
