Installing the XO Client Software on Your PC

System Requirements for the Client PC
Hardware

The following are the recommended hardware requirements to run the XO client on a PC:

  • Intel Core i5 processor with 8GB RAM
  • Graphics card with DirectX 12 support and the capability for using YUV surfaces and hardware stretching. Intel® HD Graphics 630 is recommended.

The rendering switches to the GDI mode when the graphics card does not have this support. Rendering in GDI mode is not recommended because of high CPU utilization.The embedded client application is now by default a 64-bit application, and the customers who require a 32-bit version can download it from the support site.

Caution!HD cameras can be used more optimally in a PC with better system specifications. Please take into account that double resolution, on average, results in 4 times more performance. Honeywell advises to test the settings to make sure that your PC can handle your configuration.

Software

The following are the recommended software requirements to run the XO client on a PC:

  • Windows 10 (64-bit)
  • DirectX 12 drivers
  • Internet Explorer 11

NoteFirmware with hardware version 2.0.0.0 and software version 1.0.0.1 is needed to decode firmware in the older devices still running the HIPI card hardware. It is strongly recommended to download the latest drivers for your video card from the site of the manufacturer of your card. Doing this will resolve a number of issues that you would probably encounter.

  • NVIDIA: www.nvidia.com
  • ATI/AMD: http://ati.amd.comThe client can be forced to use GDI mode. Just put gdi=1 in the [General] section of the hydra.ini file located in your data directory. The default location is:c:\users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Hydra\hydra.ini.
Installing the XO Client Software

This document describes how to install the XO client via the XO device’s web page. For this, you need to add the device’s web page to the trusted sites in Internet Explorer. Furthermore, your PC must have an IP address in the same network range as the XO device. You can also install the XO client using the stand-alone client installer. This requires an internet connection for downloading. For instructions, see the XO Client Software User Manual (21796).

NoteWebserver is disabled by default starting with ADPROXO 5.0. It can only be reenabled by a  technician on a system in which an admin user has enabled the technical grant. To install the client software using the XO device’s web page, the webserver must be enabled by the technician which is a security risk. You can get the client software from the release DVD or from the support site (www.xtralissecurity.com).

Internet Explorer Settings

NoteThe preferred browser for installing the XO client software is Internet Explorer. If you cannot use Internet Explorer, try any other internet browser. In this case, you have to install the MeadCo Neptune plugin. You can download the plugin from www.meadco.com/Neptune/Download.

When installing the XO client software via the XO device’s web page, you need to add the XO device’s IP address to your Trusted sites in Internet Explorer. The XO device’s default IP address is 10.0.0.10 with subnet mask 255.255.255.0. Proceed as follows:

  1. In Internet Explorer, choose Tools > Internet options.
  2. Click the Security tab.
  3. In the Select a zone… box, click Trusted sites, and then click Sites.
  4. In the Add this website… box, type http:// followed by the XO device’s IP address. For example: http://10.0.0.10
  5. Click Add, and then click Close.
  6. Click OK to close the Internet Options window.If installation is still not possible, you may try clearing the Enable Protected Mode checkbox in the Security tab.

Caution!Check with the IT department if you are allowed to switch off protected mode, because it may lead to  IT issues.

Changing the PC’s IP Address

The XO device’s default IP address is 10.0.0.10 with subnet mask 255.255.255.0. If you install the client software via the device’s web page, or if you want to configure a device using the XO client, you need to put your PC in the same IP range (for example, IP address 10.0.0.2 with subnet mask 255.255.255.0).

To change the PC’s IP address in Windows 10, proceed as follows:

  1. Click Start, and then click Control Panel (View by: Category).
  2. Click Network and Internet.
  3. Click Network and Sharing Center.
  4. Click Connections.
  5. Click Properties.
  6. Click Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4).
  7. For ease of initial setup, change the PC’s TCP/IP settings to the following:
    IP address 10.0.0.2
    Subnet mask 255.255.255.0
  8. Click OK to return to the Local Area Connection window.
  9. Click OK to close the window.

NoteYou can check the XO device information by running the following commands when you are connected to the device with a monitor and keyboard.
