Installing Third-Party Software on Your FTB-500

Installing Third-Party Software on Your

FTB-500

Since your FTB-500 is equipped as a conventional laptop computer would
be, you can install third-party software on it, provided that it is compatible
with Microsoft Windows XP Professional. However, EXFO does not provide
any support for the installation, use or troubleshooting of such third-party
software. Should you need help, refer to the corresponding third-party
software documentation or technical support.

Protecting your Unit with an Antivirus

Software

Since each customer has different security standards and rules for their
computers and test systems, EXFO does not provide an antivirus on the
FTB-500. In this manner, you can apply your own standards and antivirus
strategy once you receive your unit, as you can install third-party software
on it, as you could on any standard laptop computer.
