CAVE is a very heavy graphics dependent software and multiple issues arise when 
running remotely.  There are limitations even when running CAVE in a Virtual 
Machine (for example satellite RGB products will not load because of the 
graphics limitations). We have provided CAVE installs for multiple operating 
systems (linux has the most functionality). With CAVE running locally, it can 
connect to a remote EDEX.
