Identities
This feature helps your VNC viewer 
to confirm that a revisited MC5-IP 
is genuine and not another device 
masquerading as an MC5-IP. The list 
given will retain the identities of all 
visited units (that have full security 
enabled). 
When you first make a secure 
connection to the MC5-IP, the 
security information for that MC5-IP 
unit is cached within this Identities 
tab (i.e. the “identity” is known). 
The next time that you connect to 
the MC5-IP, its identity is checked 
against the stored version. If a 
mismatch is found between the 
current and the stored identities 
then a warning will be issued to 
you.
If an existing MC5-IP is fully reconfigured then it will need to issued with a new 
identity. In this case the previous identity, listed in this tab, should be removed so 
that a new identity can be created on the next connection.
