Chapter 4, Establish CaseViewNet Connection, provides instructions on how to start WiFi wireless
realtime communication between Case CATalyst V8.20 or higher and the CaseViewNet client
computer. In order to establish WiFi CaseViewNet communication, you must have first configured
the Linksys E1200 router. See WiFi Wireless Router Configuration on page 7 for more information on
router configuration, establishing a network name and setting a passphrase.
Client Without Wireless Capability
In a situation where a client does not have built in WiFi capability, you can:
connect an Ethernet cable between one of the four available Ethernet ports on the
Linksys E1200 router and the client’s computer network port or NIC card. Connect up to four
Ethernet cables to four computers and continue with the setup instruction.
connect a serial cable between the Case CATalyst computer and the CaseViewNet client
computer. Certain CaseViewNet features are not available. See the CaseViewNet Help for
additional information about serial connection, including setup.
Computer Settings for Anti-Virus and Firewall Programs
Most anti-virus software installed on computers contain a firewall. A firewall is a system that secures
the wireless network, shielding it from access by unauthorized users. It can also restrict data from
flowing in and out of the network. Software firewalls can restrict the data flow from the Case
CATalyst network computer and the CaseViewNet client computers. Often, changing a setting in the
software firewall can eliminate the restriction.
Stenograph has tested several anti-virus software packages and provides recommended settings for
the Case CATalyst and CaseViewNet computers to help ensure unrestricted data flow. The latest
CaseViewNet anti-virus information can be found on the Stenograph web-site,

documentation or vendor.
