About virus scanning
Virus scanning uses a considerable amount of system resources on scanning all the data which
XProtect Download Manager is archiving or using. The scanning process may temporarily lock each
file it scans, which can further impact system performance negatively. Therefore, you should disable
any virus scanning of affected areas (such as camera databases, and so on.) on the system server as
well as on any archiving destinations if you are allowed to in your organization.
About time servers
Once your system receives images, they are instantly time-stamped. However, since cameras are
separate units which may have separate timing devices, power supplies and so on, camera time and
your system time may not correspond fully. This may occasionally lead to confusion. If your cameras
supports timestamps, Milestone recommends that you auto-synchronize camera and system time
through a time server for consistent synchronization.
For information about how to configure a time server, try searching www.microsoft.com for time
server, time service, or similar.
