M8040A LAN Network Configuration
Multiple engineers can all be connected to a single M8040A via a LAN
network and controlled using the M8070B software running on a host PC.
The host PC tracks the number of licenses checked out and the number of
licenses available for use. In addition, the host PC can be a dedicated
computer running the license server or it can also run the M8070B
software concurrently. The M9537A AXIe Embedded Controller can also be
used as the host PC in this configuration.
