To connect x-touchPANEL to a PC/laptop via Ethernet, a network cable is required. In a network,
each x-touchPANEL must be assigned an individual IP address. If, e.g., you want to include
several x-touchPANEL into an existing company network, consult your IT specialist for the IP
addresses.
For networks with Firewall, Switch, etc., please also contact your IT specialist.
