In addition, the Smart Client can be downloaded in 32- or 64-bit if you run a 64-bit operating systemand in 32-bit if you run a 32-bit operating system.This initial look of the welcome page is automatically provided through the Download Manager's defaultconfiguration—for more information, see Default configuration of Download Manager in the following.Default configuration of Download ManagerThe Download Manager has a default configuration. This ensures that your organization's users can accessstandard features without the surveillance system administrator having to set up anything.The Download Manager configuration is represented in a tree structure.Download Manager's Tree Structure ExplainedThe first level of the tree structure simply indicates that you are working with a XProtect Expresssystem.The second level indicates that this is the default setup.The third level refers to the languages in which the welcome page is available. In the example, thewelcome page is available in a dozen languages (English, Arabic, Danish, Dutch, French, and more).The fourth level refers to the features which are—or can be made—available to users. For example,these features could be limited to the Smart Client.The fifth level ( 5 ) refers to particular versions of each feature, for example, version 4.0, 32-bit, etc.which are—or can be made—available to users.The sixth level ( 6 ) refers to the language versions of the features which are—or can be made—available to users. For the Smart Client, which is only available with all languages embedded, the onlyoption is All Languages.The fact that only standard features are initially available helps reduce installation time and save space on theserver.
