Following is a detailed list of information available on the PairingInfo page.
Chassis - This field reports a unique identifier for the chassis. In systems that contain multiple
chassis, this can be used to identify each card in the system.
➢ See Section 4.1 on how to assign unique identifiers to multiple chassis within a system.
Slot - This field identifies the card’s location within a chassis, numbered 1 through 6.
CardIP - This field shows the IP address of the COM51 card that resides in the chassis and slot
combination to its left. If the system is connected to a network providing DHCP the issued IP
address will be displayed.
➢ This field is also a link to see the Syslog for that card.
RID - This field reports the AT&T / DIRECTV Receiver ID, or RID. This value is the first of
two parameters required to obtain authorization on the AT&T / DIRECTV network.
CAM_ID - This field reports the AT&T / DIRECTV CAM ID. This value is the second
parameter required to obtain authorization on the AT&T / DIRECTV network.
➢ You can click on the hyperlink in this column to be taken directly to that card’s CAM Log (see
Section 6.2.4 for more information on reading a card’s CAM log).
Serial_Number – This field contains the unique electronic serial number of the board assigned
at the time of manufacture.
Authorized – This field reports whether the COM51 card’s CAM has been authorized.
➢ A value of ‘1’ indicates that the card has been authorized, thereby enabling the card to receive
AT&T / DIRECTV programming.
➢ A value of ‘0’ indicates that the card has not been authorized.
Paired – This field reports the pairing status of the CAM card.
➢ In order to be capable of receiving an authorization to the AT&T / DIRECTV network, the RID
and CAM data must first be paired.
➢ If this has not happened, then the card cannot be authorized until the pairing is resolved.
➢ A value of ‘1’ indicates that the RID and CAM are successfully paired; a value of ‘0’ indicates that
they are not.
SW_Version – This field reports the software version that currently resides on the COM51 card.
