Installing and Configuring XProtect Smart Client
XProtect Smart Client is a desktop application designed to help you manage and view video from the cameras that are connected to your XProtect VMS system. In this course you will download, install, and set up views and other items in Smart Client.
After completing this course, system integrators and end customer stakeholders will be able to:
- Download and install XProtect Smart Client.
- Set up views and other items in XProtect Smart Client.
Playlist: Working with views in XProtect Smart Client
In this playlist, you'll find video tutorials on how to view live and recorded video and work with views in XProtect® Smart Client.
Viewing live video in XProtect Smart Client
XProtect Smart Client allows you to monitor events by viewing and adjusting live video. In this course you view and adjust live video in the XProtect Smart Client.
After completing this course, operators will be able to:
- Navigate through the XProtect Smart Client.
- Monitor events by viewing and adjusting live video.
Playlist: Investigating incidents in XProtect Smart Client
This video playlist shows you how to investigate recorded incidents using timeline navigation and search in XProtect® Smart Client.
Searching and Exporting Video in XProtect Smart Client
Find evidence of an incident and export it. Users of XProtect Smart Client need to efficiently complete these tasks. In this course, you locate, and export video evidence needed for an investigation.
After completing this course, investigators will be able to:
- Investigate incidents by searching through and playing back video.
- Export evidence via video and still images.
Playlist: Exporting video evidence in XProtect Smart Client
In this playlist, you'll find video tutorials on how to export video evidence in XProtect® Smart Client.
Exporting Evidence in Media Player format
Exporting evidence in media player format is a lightweight way to share video evidence in a standard format. This eLearning covers how to enable and export in media player format.
After completion, integrators and investigators will be able to:
- Enable media player format.
- Enable individual files and combined file export.
- Export media player combined file.
- Export individual media player files.
- Export still images.
Getting Started with XProtect Web Client
The XProtect Web Client is an intuitive, web-based interface used to view, play back, and share video. This course covers the operation of the XProtect Web Client.
Installing XProtect VMS in a multi-server environment
Larger XProtect VMS installations require installing various XProtect components on dedicated servers. In this course you will help install and configure a distributed, large XProtect VMS solution.
After completing this course, partners and integrators familiar with XProtect VMS will be able to:
- Identify Milestone Support resources.
- Prepare a system for XProtect.
- Find and download XProtect.
- Install XProtect VMS on dedicated servers.
INTERMEDIATEMilestone Cloud Fundamentals
When it comes to discussing deployment of a VMS, one must have a good understanding of what ‘the cloud’ is. In this course, you explore the basic concepts of cloud computing and how they apply to both IP video surveillance in general and Milestone XProtect VMS.
After completing this course, system integrators will be able to:
- Define what "the cloud" is, including common cloud-based providers, business models, and ser vices.
- Describe how the workload considerations for IP-based video surveillance influence cloud-based deployments.
- Identify likely use cases for migrating or deploying XProtect VMS in the cloud.
- Assess the similarities, differences, and trade-offs between on-premises XProtect VMS solutions and cloud-based XProtect VMS solutions.
- Consider next steps for exploring a transition to cloud-based VMS deployments.
