You can fix rubber feet on the bottom. The height is then increased by 2.5 mm.
(*) With an ENTRY system license you can only use 4 analogue cameras, because this is the maximum
number of analogue cameras that is supported by the ENTRY system license. This is for instance the case
with the ADPRO FastTrace 2 Lite.
(**) With an ENTRY system license you cannot use IP cameras, because this is not supported by this
specific system license. This is for instance the case with the ADPRO FastTrace 2 Lite.
Note
You are not allowed to draw any other streams from the IP cameras than those destined for the
FastTrace 2. If you do need to draw other streams from the IP camera for any reason, use the
single stream mode (for more information, see the XOa Client Software User Manual).
If you have to use streams for other applications as well, then also use the single stream mode.
