Install Viewer
The first time you access the webpages of the camera, you may be prompted about the
installation of Viewer. This add-on is required to view camera images in the webpages. The

install.cab
. It does not give rise to any security risks. You
can install it safely.
Important: You are strongly advised to remove a previous installation of Viewer from your
computer before you initially access the camera over the network or when you encounter an
"A new version is available" message. For more information, see Appendix: Delete the
existing Viewer software.
