Working with Remote Desktop
By default, the remote access to your unit with Remote Desktop is not
enabled. However, once you enable it, all the accounts with administrator
rights can use Remote Desktop. If you want accounts with limited rights to
be able to use it as well, you must specifically grant them access.
You can also configure the unit to prevent users from accessing it remotely.
Accessing Your Unit with Remote Desktop
To be able to connect to the unit using Remote Desktop, you must:
Allow the remote access to your unit (only necessary the first time that
you access your unit with Remote Desktop).
Know the IP address of the unit and provide it in the connection
settings on the computer.
Use an account that is secured by a password. Remote Desktop will
not allow any connection with empty passwords.
Enter the appropriate user name when Remote Desktop application
prompts you. Usually, this user name must correspond to the user
name of the person currently logged on the unit. Otherwise, you will
disconnect the person that was already connected.
