7.6.3 Frequently Asked Questions

A) Hilo Remote will time‐out and disconnect from LynxRedirector if it doesn’t get a message from the Hilo for 3 seconds. This will
be shown in Hilo Remote as a disconnected Wi‐Fi icon: . This can occur if you are out‐of-range of your Wi‐Fi router, or if there
is heavy Wi‐Fi traffic causing missed packets for Hilo Remote. Move closer to your router, or reduce the Wi‐Fi traffic then Hilo
Remote will automatically try and re‐establish the connection.
Q) Can I run more than one copy of Hilo Remote?
A) The Hilo can only communicate with one copy of Hilo Remote at a time. If you launch Hilo Remote on the Host

Hilo Remote will go into its “disconnected” state after 3 seconds and it will automatically try and reestablish communication with the
Hilo.
Q) My Host Computer is on a different sub‐net, or is completely different network, how can I connect?
A) Hilo Remote V1.0.0.6 and up allows you to specify the Host Computer’s IP address using the Select Connection dialog on the
Target Computer/Tablet:
