Installing viewLinc
This section outlines how to install viewLinc on a server or a
remote host, including a description of the four methods by
which devices can be connected to the system. The four
methods are:
• using a vNet device to connect devices to the network
• using a Digi device to connect devices to the network
• using USB port to connect devices to viewLinc Server or
Remote Host
• using Serial port to connect devices to viewLinc Server or
Remote Host
If you are connecting 300 Series Transmitter devices, they
are connected either wirelessly or using a Digi device. Refer
to your Vaisala product User Guide for more information.
