NOTICE
Disabling transmission of SMART data to Hexagon Manufacturing Intelligence is not advised. If you do
this, it will make difficult diagnosing potential problems with your equipment. This could increase machine
downtime.
RDS Toolbox requires the authorization to communicate with the networks to access the
HEXAGON Server.
Ensure that RDS Toolbox is registered for Windows® firewall or any other firewall to access
internet through the network.
When updating to a newer version, RDS must first be uninstalled, to be able to install the new
version: during the update installation, click on YES to uninstall the previous version before
processing to the new installation.
All settings, configuration and options are preserved.
It is recommended to disable any firewall as it may prevent RDS from functioning properly.
Depending on the version of Windows®, it may be necessary to confirm some message
boxes or allow some installation such as Jungo driver installation, dotnetfx, netfx, Sentinel
driver...

it or prompt to activate it: Access Windows® control panel > group "Programs" > "Turn
Windows features on or off".
