Troubleshooting

Remote network users are unable to contact the CPU IP

Check that the correct address is being used by the remote users.

Check the network settings. Check that the users network address has not been excluded in the IP access control section.

If the CPU IP is situated behind a firewall, check that the relevant ports are being allowed through the firewall and are being correctly routed.

Check the front panel indicators, the LNK indicator should be on. If the network link is a 100Mbps connection, the 100 indicator should also be on.

The remote cursor is not correctly responding to my mouse movements

Recalibrate the mouse. When doing so, ensure that the host system does not have mouse cursor trails enabled and that the top left corner of the screen is clear of application windows.

When logging on using VNC viewer, I cannot enter a username

Either, the VNC viewer is an old version (download a new one) or only the admin user has been configured on the CPU IP.
