tab under Internet Options.
To play back live video images, an appropriate ActiveX must be
installed on the computer. If necessary, the required software
and controls can be installed from the product CD provided.
a. Insert the CD into the CD-ROM drive of the computer.
If the CD does not start automatically, open the root
directory of the CD in Windows Explorer and double
click BVC-installer.exe
