Installing the RadioLinx Industrial Hotspot Browser

Use the RadioLinx Industrial Hotspot Browser Configuration Tool (hereafter called the IH
Browser) to set up and configure the RLX2-IHx series radios. It is designed for personal
computers running the Microsoft Windows operating systems.

following versions:


Microsoft Windows 10
Other Microsoft Windows operating system versions may work but have not been tested
by ProSoft Technology and are not officially supported.
In addition, these items may be needed:

An RS-232 port on the PC or a USB-to-serial convertor cable, to use serial
encapsulation features or to access system debugging information.
