Remotely accessing the scans on the SD card
To access scan files stored on the scanner‘s removable SD card from a connected remote device,
enable the Remote Access to Scans option in the Manage / General Settingsscreen of the TX5
Controller software first. Then open Windows Explorer on the remote device and enter the following
address into the address bar: \\WLAN_IP_ADDRESS_OF_SCANNER\Scans (for example
\\172.17.16.23\Scans). You should have access to the scans now and can download them to the
remote device.
Note – Copying the files from the scanner via WLAN may take a while, depending on connection
speed and signal strength.
