Unit configuration
This page provides access to a selection of both basic and advanced settings for
the MC5-IP. Many of the settings displayed here are also accessible through the
on-screen menu.
Unit Name
The name entered here will be displayed on the local menus and the remote
VNC viewer/browser windows.
Encryption
Three options are available: Always on, prefer off, prefer on. The one to choose
depends on the specific details of your installation - see
Encryption settings
for
details. The use of encryption imposes a slight performance overhead of roughly 10%
but is highly secure against third party intrusion.
