21.4 Remote Desktop connection
Remote Desktop is a Windows application, which can be used to access and control
the instrument from a remote computer through a LAN connection. While the instru-
ment is in operation, the contents of the instrument screen are displayed on the remote
computer. Remote Desktop provides access to all applications, files, and network
resources of the instrument. Thus, remote operation of the instrument is possible.
Risk of unauthorized access
If you enable the Windows Remote Desktop application on the instrument, anyone
using the network who knows the computer name and login data can access it. To pre-
vent unauthorized access, make sure that the Remote Desktop application on the
instrument is disabled: "Start" > "Settings" > "Control Panel" > " System"
