Local Time in Clients; Universal Time on Server
In a Milestone XProtect Central Client, time and date information is always presented in local
values, based on the Client user’s regional settings, but actions performed in the Client will be
registered in Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) on the Milestone XProtect Central Server.
This way Milestone XProtect Central is able to effortlessly process information from surveillance
systems and Milestone XProtect Central Clients located in different time zones.
System Administrators Also Use the Client
The Milestone XProtect Central Client is also used by Milestone XProtect Central administrators for
initial configuration of the system, since administrators have access to a number of otherwise
hidden configuration features in the Milestone XProtect Central Client.
Simplified Client User Interface
Occasionally, your XProtect Central administrator may have limited the number of features you
have access to in the Client, for example by removing certain buttons. Simplifying the Client user
interface this way can be advantageous in organizations where the Client is only used for simple
verification purposes or similar. If your administrator has simplified your client’s user interface,
some of the features described here may not be available to you; consult your administrator if in
doubt.
