Event Viewer integration software, simply run the installers and follow the prompts. All
your previous software settings are remembered, so you do not need to re-configure the
software.

Be aware that the Avigilon Control Center uses a new default port number (38880) for
server communication. The upgrade installers will automatically update the port numbers
accordingly. If you had set a custom port number, the system will continue to use the
custom port number.
