Installation and Network Requirements
Network Capacity
We recommend that you install all iControl Edge devices, as well as any associated equipment, on a
dedicated LAN. The quality of service of your iControl Edge system (including streaming bit rate, frame rate,
and the number of concurrent users possible) is directly related to the capacity of your network.
Network Clients
Users can access the iControl Edge Application Server using a Web browser (Microsoft Internet Explorer or
Mozilla Firefox) on a client PC or laptop running Windows®. When a user logs on and launches an iControl
module (e.g. iC Web), the software is automatically downloaded from the Application Server and runs on
the client PC or laptop.
