Onsite Sync & Device Issues

Where to Find It

Admin portal > Onsite, Signage, or room/device management

Start from the admin area that owns the affected device or room, then compare what ema shows with what is physically happening onsite.

Symptoms

  • a venue screen is stale
  • room state is wrong on-site
  • a device shows as offline or unpaired
  • recent schedule or content changes are not visible

Triage Order

Onsite Device Triage
  1. Check whether the device is still paired.
  2. Check the device heartbeat.
  3. Verify the screen or room assignment.
  4. Confirm whether the onsite runtime is syncing normally.
  5. Look for a wider venue or network issue if several devices fail together.

Typical Causes

  • device replacement without re-pairing
  • local connectivity problems
  • stale runtime state
  • incorrect logical destination assignment
Do not troubleshoot only from the desk

When possible, have one person at the physical device and one person in the admin portal. Pairing and assignment issues are much easier to spot when both views are checked at the same time.
