Prerequisites for using Milestone Mobile
The following items must be in place before you can start using Milestone Mobile:

An XProtect system installed and configured with at least one user.

Cameras and views set up in XProtect ® Smart Client.

A mobile device running Android, iOS or Windows 8 and access to Google Play, App Store ℠
or Windows Phone Store from which you can download the Milestone Mobile application.

Milestone Mobile is only compatible with some versions of XProtect. See System requirements for
Milestone Mobile server (see "XProtect Mobile server" on page 6) for more information.
Access XProtect Web Client
If you have a Milestone Mobile server installed on your computer, you can use the XProtect
®
Web
Client to access your cameras and views. Since you do not need to install XProtect Web Client, you
can access it from the local computer on which you installed the Milestone Mobile server or any other
computer you want to use for this purpose.
To access the XProtect Web Client:
1. Set up the Milestone Mobile server in the Management Application.
