Installing the Smart Client
The Smart Client must be installed on your computer before you are able to use it.
Typically, you download the Smart Client from the surveillance system server, then install it on
your computer. Alternatively, your surveillance system administrator may ask you to install the
Smart Client from a CD (see page 13).
In some organizations, your surveillance system administrator will be able to install the Smart
Client on your computer through the network, in which case you will not have to perform any
installation yourself.
Download and Installation from Server
