🖥️ 2. Operator’s Workstation

  • A power socket and an Ethernet port must be available near the operator’s desk.

  • The connection between the operator’s PC and the Apstec Merlin system should be established via Ethernet cable, either directly or through a local network (minimum speed: 100 Mbit/s).

đź”’ 3. Remote Access & GDPR Compliance

  • Remote Access: Remote access is required for technical support and system monitoring via a secure, encrypted Internet channel. If an Internet connection is not possible, the setup must be coordinated with the APSTEC Technical Support Team.

  • GDPR Compliance: All data is processed locally on the device — no cloud processing is required for Apstec Merlin operation.
