How to check whether the device’s

show “Installed”. If the file is not listed, make sure your Security
Settings in Internet Explorer are configured properly and then try
reloading the device’s home page. Most likely, the ActiveX control
did not download and install correctly. Check your Internet Explorer
security settings and then close and restart Internet Explorer. Try to
browse and log in again.

security settings prohibit
downloading ActiveX controls”.

Set up the IE security settings or configure the individual settings to
allow downloading and scripting of ActiveX controls.

server running on your LAN.
