Then click “Test Certificates” to check whether the network connection between engineering client and system server is good.
Note: Only the certificates are installed, you can click the button, otherwise you will get an error if certificates are not installed.
Please make sure the firewall has been switched off, otherwise it will lead to test certificates failure.
