OPERATION 30 ULTRAVIEW REMOTE 2 INSTALLATIO N AND OPERATIONS MANUAL
Remote System Operation
Connecting using a web browser
Connecting to the UltraView Remote 2 from a network location or over t he internet can be done two ways; using the
Built-in Java VNC Viewer or Downloading Windows VNC Viewer from the unit and installing it on the remote
computer. It is recommended that the Windows VNC viewer be downloaded from the unit and installed on the
remote computer. The VNC viewer is more robust than the J ava applet and has more functionality and features than
the Java applet. If you experience problems using the J ava applet, switch to the VNC viewer application.
To connect to the UltraView Remote 2 from any workstatio n, start a web browser and enter the assigned IP address
for the unit in the URL field of the browser (Example http://1 92.168.0.44). The UltraView Remote 2 will respond with
the below three options displayed in the browser’s windo w.
The first time a connection to the UltraView Remote 2 is made, it is recommended that you download the Windows
VNC viewer from the unit, save it and run the VNC viewer to c onnect to the unit directly. Some operating systems
may request permission to run or save the program. Save the pr ogram to the location wanted and create a desktop
ICON for the program. The next time the RealVNC viewer is ne eded, just click on the desktop ICON to connect.
After the installation is complete, run the VNC viewer pr ogram and the VNC Viewer Connection Details window will
display. Make sure that the Server IP address is correc t and the port number is 5900. If the port number was
changed during the unit configuration procedure, this num ber will match that VNC port configuration number.

Password
Click on the OK tab and VNC Authentication box will dis play. Enter the Username and password and click OK.

address is locked out and remote access is denied. The loc kout of an IP address will show up in the log as
IP address “Blacklisted”. (See the troubleshooting section f or the procedure to unlock the IP address)
Click on the OK tab and the remote connected computer’s v ideo will display.

be encrypted.
