Access to user assistance

In the XProtect Smart Client interface, pressing F1 takes you to the relevant topic in the XProtect Smart Client user assistance. The user assistance topics are tailored to assist you with the task you’re currently working on.

From XProtect Smart Client 2024 R1, the user assistance is not installed with the software, but you can install it separately.

You don’t need to install the user assistance if your computer with XProtect Smart Client has access to the internet, because pressing F1 opens the Milestone Documentation portal with all the user assistance for all software from Milestone Systems.

If you don’t have access to the internet and no installed user assistance, pressing F1 displays a QR code and a URL which directs you to the Milestone Documentation portal.
