3.3.2 Setting the Firewall to Allow RMC100 Ethernet Browsing
This topic is pertinent to all computers with a firewall, especially Windows XP SP2, which includes
a firewall.
If you computer has a firewall, it may prevent RMCWin from finding RMC100s when browsing the
Ethernet network from the Communication Options Tab. This problem will appear with Windows
XP Service Pack 2 since it includes a Firewall with default settings that block the RMCWin
Ethernet browsing. Other firewalls may cause the same problem. If your RMC is behind a firewall,
make sure the firewall forwards port 1324 to the RMC’s IP address.
There are two methods of fixing this problem in Windows XP:
Create an Exception for RMCWin
This method leaves the Firewall enabled, and creates an exception only for RMCWin.
Disable the Firewall
This method is the easiest, but it may be undesirable since it may make your computer vulnerable
to viruses and intruders.
The following instructions describe how to perform these two tasks on Windows XP:
