install, and the parameter /quiet indicates a silent installation.

On the target computer, the Smart Client is by default installed in C:\Program Files\
Milestone\Milestone Smart Client. With the TARGETDIR property, you are able to specify a

different installation folder. Example:

C:\Documents and Settings\you>msiexec /I "C:\folder_to_which_file_was_
copied\SmartClientInstaller.msi" /quiet TARGETDIR=C:\required_

Remote Client

In the following, the Remote Client is briefly introduced. For detailed information about

the Remote Client, see the Milestone XProtect Remote Client User’s Manual, available on

the XProtect Basis+ software DVD as well as from www.milestonesys.com.

The Remote Client provides remote users with feature-

rich access to the surveillance system. It lets users
access multiple servers at a time, allowing remote user

access across systems.

The Remote Client does not offer nearly as many
features as the Smart Client (see page 140). However,

the Remote Client is accessed through a browser and run

straight from the XProtect Basis+ server. This eliminates

the need for installing any client software. See system
requirements for the Remote Client under System

Requirements on page 14.

Accessing a Remote Client

The Remote Client is run directly from the XProtect Basis+ server; you simply access it through a

browser:

1. Open an Internet Explorer browser (version 6.0 or later), and connect to the surveillance

system server at the URL or IP address specified by your system administrator. When you

connect to the XProtect Basis+ server, you will see a welcome page.


If using Windows Vista, the

Remote Client must be added

as a trusted site in your
browser (from your browser’s

Tools menu, select Internet

Options > Security > Trusted

sites).

2. On the welcome page, select

your required language in the
menu in the top right corner.

Then go to the welcome page’s

Remote Client section, and
click the required Remote

Client language version link.
