1. Introduction
This Quick Guide serves as an easy-to-use guide to help make your VNC connection to the
Flosense Manifold system as simple as possible. However, beware that the Quick Guide is
a supplement to the full VNC guide and for that reason cannot stand alone. So please ensure
that you have read the relevant User guide thoroughly before connecting your Flosense
system to your Machine UI or PC with VNC.
Disclaimer
Costs connected to any damages to the products, PC or Machine UI caused by lack of
following the instruction manuals, will be at the customers own expense.

•Enter the network data as seen below
For the subnet mask, it is highly recommended to input 255.255.0.0 as seen above.
When entering the IP-address, if you have input the recommended subnet mask, the first 6
digits of the IP address will be assigned to your PC/Unit by your network and you can select
the remaining digits yourself.
The first 6 digits will almost always be 192.168 as shown above, but the remaining digits
may be any number you choose between 1 and 255.
After entering the data above, click OK and your network should be ready to connect.

IMPORTANT!
The Flosense display need to have 12 digits in the IP-address field in order to successfully
register the IP-address. This means that if you wish to use the IP-address 192.168.4.5, you
will need to enter 192.168.004.005 in the Flosense software.
•Connect the Flosense display to your unit with VNC software (Here shown with
TightVNC)
Make sure that you have connected your manifolds to your Flosense display before
connecting the units with VNC, as the VNC connection is lost if the Flosense display is
turned off or rebooted.

3. Connecting through a common router
If you are connecting your Flosense display locally to a PC or the Machine UI, ignore this
part and go back to page 1.
In order to be able to connect the Flosense unit to your system using a router, the router
needs to have DHCP, for it to be able to designate an IP-address to the Flosense display.
•Connect the Flosense display to your router with an ethernet cable.
The Flosense display needs to be Turned OFF, before connecting the display to the router
as seen on the picture below. Once they are connected you can turn on the Flosense
display.
