Notes:
• Install after logging into your computer using an account with administrator rights.
• To play recorded video, install VLC media player 1.11-1.13 or Apple QuickTime 7 or later on your computer.
VLC media player 2.0.x doesn't work with some network cameras. For network cameras that record in MPEG-4
format, VLC media player is recommended.
• If VLC media player is installed, use the default installation location (C:\Program Files (x86)\VideoLAN\VLC in
Windows 7 64-bit or the Application folder in Mac OS).
• If surveillance cameras or client tools installed under C:\Program Files (x86)\BUFFALO\SurveillanceServer\Bin)
are blocked due to the OS firewall, refer to the OS help for how to disable the firewall.
• Install Client Tools on one or more computers connected to the same network as the network camera(s) and the
TeraStation. Surveillance camera settings are shared for all cameras on the network.
