Accessing and Configuring the Graphical User Interface (GUI)
This section describes how to access and configure the LX via the GUI. To perform this procedure,
you need a PC with Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 1.4.2 or later installed.
NOTE: For optimum GUI performance, MRV recommends that your PC run at 500 MHz or better.
The minimum requirement for desktop color settings is 256.
IMPORTANT
If your browser is connected to an LX running an older software version, you must close
the browser completely and clear the cache before connecting your browser to an LX running a
more recent software version. This is because the Java saves the applet to your PC. If you fail to
close the browser completely, the browser will use the old applet when you connect to the
LX running a later software version, and therefore some features will be missing from the GUI
windows.
