     Installation:

     You must be logged in as an administrator when installing ACE.

     You don't have to uninstall ACE 1.0 before installing ACE 1.1 and 
     you don't have to enter a licence code if you already have 
     registered ACE.

     Run setup.exe (or ACE.exe if you are installing the downloadable 
     version). Follow the instructions. After the successful installation
     of ACE you will find a new icon in the folder tree on the left side 
     of Windows Explorer - called Network Cameras. 
     You may have to refresh the Explorer after the installation.

     Uninstallation / reinstallation:

     Uninstall will remove all of the objects (cameras, albums and 
     live video sites) you have added. If you need to uninstall 
     ACE and still want to keep your objects for later use, 
     back up the following file (found in the Windows/Winnt directory): 
     B70B3711_525C_11D4_B070_009027BD8645.rfo.

     ACE will create a new B70B...rfo file when it is reinstalled. 
     Replace the B70B...rfo file with the one you backed up.

     --------------------------------------------------------------------

     Known limitations:


     1. Albums, recording and snapshots:
        Use full paths (e.g. C:\images, not just images) when you 
        associate an album with a directory and when you record and save
        snapshots. 

     2. Adding Internet connected cameras:
        An Internet connected camera will not be identified autmatically 
        if you are connected to the Internet through a proxy server. But, 
        you can choose model and version manually if the identification 
        fails. Another possibility is to add a Live Video site object and 
        enter the video request in the URL field.

     3. Camera object names:
        Avoid using DNS names when you are naming a camera or Live video
        site objects in the Explorer. In some cases the Internet Explorer
        will try to open the camera object instead of connecting to the
        camera when you enter the DNS name in the Address field.

     4. Delete and View button:
        You can not use the delete and view buttons in the toolbar to
        delete objects or to change the view style (large icons, 
        details etc) of the folder view if you are running Windows 2000
        or Windows Me. Use the context meny or the View menu instead.
