Introduction
1. Locate the XProtect Smart Client installation program (.exe) file - MilestoneXProtectSmart
Client.exe or MilestoneXProtectSmart Client_x64.exe for 32-bit and 64-bit versions
respectively. You find the file in a subfolder under the folder httpdocs. The httpdocs folder is
located under the folder in which your Milestone surveillance software is installed.
The path is typically:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Milestone\Milestone Surveillance\httpdocs\Smart Client
Installer\[version number] [bit-version]\All Languages\en-US
For example:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Milestone\Milestone Surveillance\httpdocs\Smart Client
Installer\6.0a (32-bit)\All Languages\en-US
2. Run a silent installation using one of the following two options:
a Run with default parameter settings:
To run a silent installation using the default values for all parameters, start a command prompt
(cmd.exe) in the directory where the installation program is located and execute following
command:
MilestoneXProtectSmart Client.exe -–quiet
This performs a quiet installation of XProtect Smart Client using default values for parameters
such as target directory and so on. To change the default settings, see below.
b Customize default parameters using an xml argument file as input:
In order to customize the default installation settings, you must provide an xml file with
modified values as input. In order to generate the xml file with default values, open a command
prompt in the directory where the installation program is located and execute following
command:
MilestoneXProtectSmart Client.exe --generateargsfile=args.xml
Open the generated args.xml file in a text editor such as Notepad, and perform any changes
needed. Then execute following command in the same directory to run a modified version of
the silent installation.
MilestoneXProtectSmart Client.exe --arguments=args.xml --quiet
