Use the built-in help system

XProtect NVR features a very comprehensive built-in help system, with help and advice on many
levels.

The built-in help system in XProtect NVR comes from the XProtect software. When the XProtect
software is used on an XProtect NVR, the help system will differ slightly from what you will experience
on your XProtect NVR. This will primarily be evident in the descriptions of installation and the licensing
model (you basically do not have to worry about installation or licensing on an XProtect NVR) as well
as in the descriptions of the number of cameras and other hardware devices you are able to add to
your system. You will find, however, that the majority of the help system’s content applies for XProtect
NVR too.

The help system will provide you with information on:

Concepts (such as What is a PTZ camera?)

Procedures (such as How do I configure a PTZ Camera?)

Basic facts (such as Can I use the character # when I name a PTZ camera?)

Useful tips (such as keyboard shortcuts, etc.)

The help system matches the tasks you work on, and a search feature quickly lets you find related
information.

To access the help system from anywhere within the Management Application, click the Help button in
the toolbar. Alternatively, press F1 on your keyboard.

The XProtectSmart Client features a similar help system.
