Hello, when we install Dewesoft (X3sp9) normally we opt out: launcher, Cameras and VNC.

The last installer question ist about the firewall.

Which exclusions will be added in this case when we select "Yes"?

Dear Stefan,


On top of Dewesoft there will be two more exclusions. when you confirm "Do you want Dewesoft to be added to the Windows Firewall exclusions?" during installation process. 


Dewesoft Launcher (RunEXE)

The port for RunEXE is 1999 but opened will be all.



Dewesoft NET 

First NET measurement unit connects to the port 8999 (set by default) on client when data transfer is initiated. Subsequent MUs connect to the next port counting downwards. Port 8999 is reserved as command port on MUs and slave clients.

Hello Matic,

thanks, this means when we neither use launcher or NET no firewall exclusions have to be set?
