NVR Software - Installation
3.1
Installation information
Important
Since several VB scripts are used for installation, we recommend
deactivating any virus scanner during the installation procedure.
SeeTec 5 may not be installed on a compressed drive as this may
cause problems with the MaxDB. Also, do not compress drives with
an existing SeeTec 5 installation.
You are asked while installing, whether the ports used by SeeTec
should be opened in the Microsoft
®
Windows
®
Firewall. Confirm this
request with
Yes
. If you use the software firewalls of other
manufacturers, you must open the port manually, see also chapter
Firewalls and SeeTec 5
(page 177).
During the installation process DirectX is installed. If there is no
previous installation of DirectX, the system may reboot after
completing the installation. DirectX is required for joystick control as
well as MPEG-4 / H.264 display. If an error message is displayed
that DirectX could not be installed, you can install DirectX at later
point in time. You will find the setup file in the
3rdPartyTools
directory on SeeTec-DVD. Use that version only.
An error message may appear during DirectX installation on a
Windows Server
®
2003, it can be ignored.
Software products of the company Symantec (Norton Firewall
TM
,
Norton
TM
Internet Security, etc.) should not be used on the
SeeTec 5 server because these programs interrupt the
communication between server services.
Use of webguards, behavior surveillance (e.g. of virus scanners), is
not supported.
