HMX 2050 or HMX 1070 user station by unplugging the power supply from the electrical outlet. To reduce the risk
of electric shock or damage to your equipment, turn on the remote workstation and the HMX 2050 or HMX 1070
user station and HMIQDHDD or HMIQSHDI transmitter in the order described in the following procedures.
You can install the HMX system with the HMX 1070 or HMX 2050 user station either by a point-
to-point or networked configuration.
Point-to-point installation HMX 1070 and HMX 2050 user station
In a point-to-point configuration, no administrator setup of the transmitter or the user station is
required. This enables you to install the system quickly, directly out-of-the-box. However, if you
choose the point-to-point configuration, you can install only one transmitter and user station pair on
a subnet, and both must be on the same subnet.
