Chapter 2: Installing Avalanche Remote Control
Remote Control comes as two separate files: the Remote Control Server installation file (
.exe
)
and the Remote Control software package (
.ava
). The installation file installs the Remote
Control server on a local computer. The Remote Control software package contains the client
software that needs to be installed on the mobile device. The software package must be added
to an Avalanche profile before it can be configured and deployed to the device.
