Then: Making New Features Available through Download
Manager

When you have installed new features—such as

Smart Client language versions, language packs,
etc.—they will by default be selected in the

Download Manager, and thus immediately be

available to users via the welcome page.

You can always show or hide features on the

welcome page by selecting or clearing check
boxes in the Download Manager’s tree structure.

In this example, we have specified that users who

select the Spanish-language version of the
welcome page should have access to a Spanish

version of the Smart Client, English and Spanish

versions of the Remote Client, and a French
language pack for the Smart Client:

Tip: You can change the sequence in which

features and languages are displayed on the
welcome page: In the Download manager’s tree

structure, simply drag items and drop them at

the required position.

Hiding and Removing Features

You can remove features in several ways:

You can hide features from the welcome page by clearing check boxes in the Download

Manager’s tree structure. In that case, the features will still be installed on the surveillance
system server, and by selecting check boxes in the Download Manager’s tree structure you

can quickly make the features available again.

You can remove features which have previously been made available through the

Download Manager. This will remove the installation of the features on the surveillance

system server. The features will disappear from the Download Manager, but installation files
for the features will be kept in the surveillance system server’s Installers folder, so you can

re-install them later if required.

want to remove the selected features. If you are

system server. This can help you save disk space on the server if you know that your
