After each update, the MX10 has to be disconnected from the power supply and restarted after about 1 minute, to make sure that all concerned circuit elements are started with the new software.

In case of a firewall, it has to be ensured that the MX10 sends data via the UDP ports 14520 (PC sends) and 14521 (PC receives commands; these ports are configured by default in the MX10 and can be changed in the MX10 menu under “PC Config+Monitor”... - Page 36 As described here for ESTWGJ, other interlocking programs can be connected with the MX10. NOTE: MX10 can not communicate via LAN and USB at the same time. As soon as the MX10 recog- nises a valid LAN connection, USB is deactivated.
