6.2.8 VNC Configuration
LOYTEC devices equipped with an LCD display also provide remote access over Ethernet
to the LCD display. The VNC protocol is used for this purpose and the device implements a
VNC server for exposing the display. The VNC server is by default disabled on the device.
On the PC a VNC client needs to be installed. Using the default settings, the VNC client
connects to port 5900 of the device. The password is ‘loytec4u’.
The VNC server can be configured on the
Ethernet
tab of the port configuration. To turn
on the VNC server, enable the
VNC for LCD UI
checkbox. The VNC protocol settings are
displayed in the settings box on the right-hand side as shown in Figure 62. The
VNC port
and
VNC password
can be changed. As a default, only one VNC client may connect. This
limit may be increased in
Max VNC clients
. In order to protect changes made on the LCD
UI over VNC with a PIN code, the
Admin PIN code
can be configured. To disable PIN
protection, enter ‘0000’.
