Typically no settings need to be changed on your computer in order to use STRATOS I/O on your computer, however, depending on your network configuration and policies imposed by your IT department there may be adjustments that need to be made for STRATOS I/O to interact with the radios.
ENCOM Stratos I/O makes use of certain network services to carry out its configuration and management tasks. Because of this, you will need to configure your network's firewalls and routers to allow access to these services.
Below are the following ports that must be opened between the radios and the computer on which ENCOM Stratos I/O is running:
** IMPORTANT **
ENCOM is not authorized to configure your computer's firewall or configure your computer's network settings. You will need to reach out to your IT Department and they will need to open these ports for you.

NOTE: Because ENCOM Radio Heartbeat packets and ENCOM I/O Device Discovery packets are broadcast packets, they are not usually able to pass through routers or firewalls.
This means that the Stratos Automatic Device Discovery feature may not work if a router or firewall is present between the computer running Stratos and the Radios or I/O devices.
In this case, you need to use the add or find radio functions to manually add the Radios to the Radio List, and use the add Gateway function to manually add I/O Gateway devices to the I/O device list.
