Connecting to Your Unit with TightVNC
Once the TightVNC Viewer is installed on your computer, you are ready to
access your unit remotely.
To connect to your unit with TightVNC:
1. Connect both the computer and your unit to the same network and
make sure they can “see” each other as network restrictions might
prevent them from communicating.
If you want to use an Ethernet network, connect an RJ-45
(network) cable to the unit’s RJ-45 port located on its top panel.
If you want to use a wireless network, see Connecting to a Wireless
Network on page 266.
You can also create a Private Area Network with your Bluetooth
device (see Transferring Data via Bluetooth on page 258).
2. Turn on both the computer and the unit.
3. On your unit, in the MAX-700 software, go to Main Menu. Select
System Info > Platform.
