Multisync is a system that coordinates the scanning activity between multiple scanners that operate as a cluster (co-operatively scanning the same channels.) Successful use of Multisync depends upon low-latency (fast) communication between the PCs that control these scanners, so it is normally required that the PCs be connected to the same LAN (Local Area Network.) In addition, due to standard NAT firewall security, it is normally impossible for PCs to directly intercommunicate if they are on different LANs.
The 'Multisync LAN Conflict' warning is not 100% definitive - it is possible that this is a false positive - but if the problem persists for more than 30 minutes, it is extremely likely that this is a real issue.
The feed site PCs operating scanners under a single feed site number need to be connected to the same Local Area Network (LAN).
