This initial look of the welcome page is automatically provided through the Download Manager's default
configuration for more information, see
Default Configuration of Download Manager
in the following.
•
Default Configuration of Download Manager
The Download Manager has a default configuration. This ensures that your organization's users can access standard
features without the surveillance system administrator having to set up anything.
The default configuration provides users with access to two features: A NetGuard-EVS and a NetGuard in language
versions matching the language version of your NetDVMS system.
The Download Manager's configuration is represented in a tree structure. Example: With an English version
of NetDVMS, the Download Manager's default configuration would be represented in a tree structure like
this.
Download Manager's Tree Structure Explained
•
The
first level of the tree structure
simply indicates that you are working with a NetDVMS system.
•
The
second level
refers to the languages in which the welcome page is available. In the example,
the welcome page is available in a dozen languages (English, Arabic, Danish, Dutch, French, etc.).
•
The
third level
refers to the features which are or can be made available to users. In the example,
these features are limited to NetGuard-EVS and NetGuard.
•
The
fourth level
refers to particular versions of each feature, such as version 3.5, which are or can
be made available to users.
•
The
fifth level
refers to the language versions of the features which are or can be made available to
users. In the example, only English versions are initially listed. This is because the example is from
an English version of NetDVMS; had you installed a Japanese version, only Japanese versions
would initially be listed.
In the example, NetDVMS has been installed an English-language version. If we expand one of the other
languages in the tree structure's second level, for example Arabic, we will see that users who select the
Arabic version of the welcome page will initially also only have access to English versions of NetGuard-EVS
and, potentially, NetGuard.
The fact that only standard features are initially available and only in the same language version as the surveillance
system itself helps reduce installation time and save space on the server. There is simply no need to have a feature or
language version available on the server if nobody is going to use it.
You can, however, easily make more features and/or languages available as required. See
Making New
Features Available
in the following for more information.
•
Making New Features Available
Making new features including new language versions available to your organization's users involves two procedures: First
you install the required features on the surveillance system server. You then use the Download Manager to fine-tune which
features should be available in the various language versions of the welcome page.
Installing New Features on Server
If the Download Manager is open, close it before installing new features on the server.
Installation files for NetGuard-EVS language versions, language packs, etc. are by default available on your
surveillance system server in a folder called
Installers
. The
Installers
folder is located in the NetDVMS
installation folder.
