NOTE: “Internet access? IT Department will
confirm if this is to be made available to the server
or not. Internet access makes for easier licensing
of some VMS systems, like qulu, and provides for
remote technical support and updates.
5. Physically install your IP cameras and configure
correct static IP settings for each before installing
the VMS – unless otherwise advised.
INSTALL QULU
While your Vista PC should be suitable for other VMS
software, we hope you intend to use it with Vista’s VMS -
qulu. 30-day 4-channel trial licences are included on the
PC to allow you the qulu experience. Simply follow the
instructions to install it;
1. Login as admin (not administrator).
2. Double-click the short-cut titled “Install qulu”
on the Windows desktop.
3. The following versions of qulu are displayed.
INSTALL QULU (CONTINUED)
NOTE: If installing qulu for the first time for this site, or
there are no other existing qulu servers, install the latest
version of qulu; 2.6.0.13109, by right-clicking and selecting
[Run as Administrator], then continue with the procedure.
Only install an older version if adding the server or
client to an existing site of the same version.
If the site has internet access, you may be able to
update existing servers to the later version first.
Alternatively, copy the later 2.6.0.13109.exe file to
existing servers and installing over the top will also
upgrade the older servers.
Always seek Vista Technical Support help or advice
before doing so, if you need guidance, and ensure you
always make a backup copy the qulu database first.
