Description
Use of the app
The Scan Controller TCP Settings app is provided to set network settings for REVOLON and DISS6 scan controllers. It is needed for the initial hardware installation on the microscope or lab network, and for subsequent changes to the network.
Please make sure any TCP change is compatible with the existing microscope or lab network!
For connection to the scan controller, client apps will also require these TCP settings. If a client app fails to connect to the device, please double check app setting with the TCP settings on the display panel on the front of the hardware scan controller.
