The first time the demo is used it may trigger a firewall alert. This is a normal response for any program that
uses the network. In this case it will be necessary to tell the firewall to allow the program to use network
connections. If the firewall is told to block connections the utility will not be able to contact the Ethernet
Axia sensor. In this case you may need your IT department to undo the firewall block.

If the demo is unable to make contact with the Ethernet Axia sensor, the force and torque values will display
zero and the Force units and other configuration-related items will each display a question mark.
