Description

Pelco, Inc. has developed and tested a plan for implementing McAfee

VirusScan

Plus with SiteAdvisor

™

2007. VirusScan Plus provides an

additional degree of protection against viruses and can be installed, configured, and activated on your DX8100 digital video recorder (DVR).

To ensure correct and effective installation of VirusScan software on the DX8100, read and follow the steps presented in this document. For

additional information about configuring and using VirusScan, refer to the McAfee VirusScan Plus 2008 User Guide.

NOTE: New viruses are created every day. To remain effective, your antivirus software must be active and updated on a regular basis. Pelco is

not responsible for the failure of an individual or organization to update antivirus software and virus definition files. Scanning the hard disk

system for viruses while the DX8100 is recording may result in lost video data. Virus scanning should only be performed manually while the

DX8100 is not in record, search, or playback modes. Pelco is not responsible for damage or loss to equipment, software, video, or other data

resulting from computer viruses. Please refer to your antivirus software manual for more information on protecting against the viruses.

Working with McAfee VirusScan Plus

• Using the automatic update feature: The automatic update feature is enabled by default, and VirusScan Plus will attempt to access the

Internet to download new virus definitions. The update feature should be configured to be compatible with the network environment in

which the DX8100 is installed. If the network has security protections that block the DX8100 from accessing the Internet, the automatic

update feature should be disabled. For information about disabling the automatic update feature, refer to Configuring on page 3.

• Using the automatic scan feature: To minimize any impact that an automatic scan might have on recording video, configure the

automatic scan to run at a time that does not conflict with recording video.

Installing

You have to exit from the DX8100 application to the Windows® environment and momentarily stop the unit from recording video to install the

VirusScan Plus software. You must have administrator privileges to exit to Windows and be currently logged on as an administrator.

1. To exit the DX8100 application and return to the Windows environment, do the following:

a. From the DX8100 menu bar, choose File > Exit. The “Shut down” dialog box appears.

b. Click “Exit to Windows.”

c. Click OK. The “Log On to Windows” dialog box appears.

d. Enter the Windows password and click OK. The system logs you on to the operating system.

2. To install VirusScan Plus, follow the installation instructions provided in the McAfee Quick Start Guide.

NOTE: The DX8100 does not display icons in the taskbar notification area. Therefore, there is no visible indication that VirusScan Plus has been

installed.

3. To restart the unit and log on to the DX8100 application, do the following:

a. On the taskbar, click Start > Shutdown. The Shut Down Windows dialog box appears.

b. In the drop-down box, select Restart.

c. Click OK. The DX8100 server restarts and displays the DX8100 application window.

d. Log on as Administrator.

4. After you install VirusScan Plus, you must configure the application to operate with the DX8100. For information about how to configure

VirusScan Plus, refer to Configuring on page 3.
