  • Page 30: Remote Control Via Vnc

    A VNC connection requires both the remote client (a smartphone can be a remote client) and the EnviroPro PLC to be on the same local network. Typically, this means that the first three numbers separated by dots of both IP addresses must match. For example, 192.168.10.43 and 192.168.10.205 are likely on the same local network because they both...
  • Page 31 Picture Details Step 2 – Identify the Local Network Subnet Windows: We need to determine the IP address of your remote client so that we can assign a proper IP address to the controller. Ensure your remote client (e.g., a desktop or a smartphone) is connected to the same network as the controller before continuing.
