Other tasks, such as installing licenses and software, require a connection to the device. In the ideal situation, you can connect your PC with Xchange installed (B) to the Xtralis database (A) and to the device (C) at the same time: In real life, you may not have both connections simultaneously. Xchange allows you to work even if you are offline (no internet connection A B) or if you are offsite (no device connection B C). The table below lists the tasks that you can perform in Xchange and which connection is required. All tasks are described in detail further in this user manual.

User Manual 5 Device Management Xtralis Xchange Tool 5.1 About Device Management The Devices section of Xchange allows you to manage the devices in your account. You can add devices to your account group, view device information, and organise devices into device groups. If you connect to the device, you can install and revoke licenses. In the menu on the left, click Devices to see the list of devices in your account. When you start with a new account, the device and device group lists are empty. Xchange lists the devices and device groups alphabetically. The Devices screen consists of the following parts: Devices (top): lists the devices (that are not assigned to a device group). From this part, you can add, edit, hide, search for, and connect to devices. Groups (bottom): lists the device groups. Click in the bottom right corner to open the device groups pane. From this part, you can add device groups, and add devices to a device group. For more information on device groups, see Organising Devices in Device Groups on page 33. 5.2 Adding Devices to Xchange Xtralis recommends to add devices to Xchange when you can connect to the device. This allows the system to check the MAC address. If you cannot connect to the device, you can already create the device with some basic information, and complete the process later when you can establish a connection. Note You must connect at least once to a device via Xchange before you can install, prepare, or transfer licenses for the device. If you have never connected to the device, the Licenses tab for the device is unavailable. You can add a device manually, or use discovery mode for ADPRO devices (recommended). In discovery mode, Xchange searches the network for all ADPRO devices that it can connect to. You can then add the found ADPRO devices in one click. 24 27816_05

Instead, use the Xchange functions as described in this manual so that Xchange can handle all files in the background for you. This prevents sync errors and other issues. You may receive a.lic file to install on a device instead of a credit token. The.lic file may be a legacy license file from the portal site (ADPRO devices only), or a downloaded backup file from the overview of application licenses (see Downloading a License File on page 67). You do not need to log on to install the file. 44 27816_05

User Manual Xtralis Xchange Tool 8 Start-Up Licenses 8.1 About Start-Up Licenses It may happen that you do not yet have all the required licenses available when you install a new device. To enable you to completely install and commission the device anyway, you can create temporary start-up licenses for the device via Xchange. The following restrictions apply: You can do this only once per device. You can create up to 20 licenses. You cannot create system licenses, only application licenses, IP channel licenses, and PIR-HLI licenses (if appropriate for the selected type of device). The timeframe is limited to 30 days: - After you create the first start-up license, you have 30 days to create additional start-up licenses. - At the end of these 30 days, all start-up licenses expire. This means that you can still create startup licenses on day 29, but these licenses will only work for 1 day. You must replace the start-up licenses before they expire by account licenses. You cannot revoke start-up licenses. Caution! Make sure that you order the required account licenses well in time, so that you can replace the start-up licenses before they expire. Take into account that you may have to go on site to replace the start-up licenses. When the start-up licenses expire, the corresponding applications on the device stop working. In case of IP channel licenses on ADPRO devices, the inputs/outputs and the PTZ of the IP cameras no longer work. The video feeds display NO LICENSE. 8.2 Creating Start-Up Licenses To create start-up licenses for a device, proceed as follows: 1. Open Xchange. 2. In the left menu, click Devices, and then double-click the device for which you want to create start-up licenses. 3. Click the Licenses tab. 46 27816_05

Xtralis Xchange Tool User Manual 4. In the Available Licenses pane, click Create. The following screen appears: Note If you do not see the Create button in the Available Licenses pane, you have already once created start-up licenses for this device, and the 30-day timeframe has expired. It is no longer possible to create start-up licenses for this device. Order the necessary licenses as soon as possible via your regular channel. 5. In the list on the left, click the type of license that you want to create, and then click add (or doubleclick the type of license). If you need more than one license of the same type, click add repeatedly until you have the required number of licenses. 6. Repeat for any other start-up license you need.

Xtralis Xchange Tool User Manual 8.3 Replacing Start-Up Licenses by Account Licenses When you replace a start-up license by an account license, Xchange simply updates the start-up licenses on the device. There is no need to open the ADPRO/XOh software and make any changes. All the settings in the ADPRO/XOh software remain as they are, and the applications keep working as before. Caution! You must replace the start-up licenses using Xchange as described below. Do not add the account licenses to the device. If you add an account license instead of using it to replace a start-up license, the start-up license will expire and the corresponding application will stop working. IP channel licenses for ADPRO devices are an exception to this rule: the ADPRO device will try and replace expired start-up IP channel licenses by account IP channel licenses. However, Xtralis does not guarantee that your IP cameras will continue to function. Therefore, if you want to be sure that everything works properly without interruption, follow the replacement instructions below. To replace start-up licenses by account licenses, proceed as follows: 1. Order the required licenses via your regular channel. You will receive one or more credit tokens. 2. Redeem the credit token(s). See Redeeming a Credit Token on page 36. 3. In the menu on the left, click Devices. 4. Double-click the desired device. If you cannot connect to the device, ignore the warning message. 5. Click the Licenses tab. 6. In the list of installed licenses, click the start-up license that you want to replace.

User Manual Xtralis Xchange Tool 9 Revoking Licenses 9.1 About Revoking Revoking a license means that you uninstall a license from a device. Xchange moves the license back in the list of available licenses in your account. You can then install the license on a different compatible device in your account. Remember that ADPRO licenses are not compatible with XOh devices, and vice versa. Note Some licenses are available in sets. For example, you can purchase IP channel licenses for ADPRO devices in sets of 4. If you purchase such a set, you install or revoke always the complete set. It is not possible to install or revoke only 1 license from such a set. This does not apply to sets of 64 ADPRO IP licenses: you can install and revoke each of the 64 licenses one by one. You take care of the full revocation process in Xchange, you do not use the License Portal site. If you still have legacy revocation files available from the License Portal site, you can import them into Xchange. For more information, see Importing Revocation Files on page 53. To revoke a license, you need to connect to the device, but you do not need to log on immediately in Xchange. However, as long as you do not log on, the revoked license remains unavailable for installation on a different device. In this case, Xchange creates a revocation file on your PC. As a workaround, you can transfer that file to another Xchange user (in your account group) who is able to log on. This user can then import the revocation file into Xchange, which moves the revoked licenses to the list of available licenses. For more information, see Importing Revocation Files on page 53. 9.2 Revoking Licenses To revoke a license, proceed as follows: 1. If the license that you want to revoke is still in use (linked to a video channel on its device), open the client software first, and unlink the license from the video channel. Note For ADPRO devices: if you have a revocable set of 4 IP channel licenses, unlink the license from all 4 video channels first. You can see which video channels are linked to the license in Xchange (in the device s installed licenses overview), or in the ADPRO client software (in the About screen). 2. Open Xchange. If possible, log on. 3. In the menu on the left, click Devices. 4. Double-click the device from which you want to revoke the license, and then click the Licenses tab. 5. In the Installed Licenses list, click the license, and then click Revoke. 6. Repeat for any other license that you want to revoke from this device. 7. If you have revoked the wrong license, click the license in the list of installed licenses, and then click Undo. 52 27816_05

User Manual Xtralis Xchange Tool 11 Transferring Licenses If you need to replace an existing device, you can transfer all the application licenses from that device to a compatible replacement device in one go. Afterwards, you must revoke the licenses on the source device, or send the device for repair if revoking is not possible. The licenses have status in transfer as long as you do not revoke them on the source device. Caution! You must revoke the licenses on the source device as soon as possible (or send the device for repair if revoking is not possible). If you have licenses in transfer for longer than 60 days, Xtralis locks your Xchange account. In that case, contact Xtralis for assistance. You can transfer from any device, including hidden devices and devices to which you cannot connect, as long as the correct identifier (MAC address) is available in Xchange, and as long as the device belongs to your account group.

User Manual 12 Restoring/Updating the System License Xtralis Xchange Tool Note System license management is only available for ADPRO devices. 12.1 About System Licenses As of Xchange version 1.3.5, Xchange creates a backup copy of the ADPRO device s system license on your PC when you connect to the ADPRO device for the first time. You can then restore the system license on the ADPRO device when necessary. The backup copy of the system license includes the encoder card licenses for the analogue video channels. Xchange stores the backup copy in the following location: C:\Users\Username\AppData\Local\Xtralis\XChange Tool\Devices\MAC-Address\System License where Username is the name of the Windows user that is currently logged on, and MAC-Address is the MAC address (identifier) of the ADPRO device. Caution! Xchange creates a backup copy only once, at the first time you connect to the ADPRO device. Xchange does not update the backup copy each time you connect. Xtralis recommends that you back up and restore your system license using the ADPRO client software. Furthermore, if there is an update available for the system license (for example, to upgrade suitable FastTrace 2E or ift units to 32 IP channels with the ADPRO XOa software), you can use Xchange to install the new system license on the ADPRO device. Note For more information about upgrading a FastTrace 2E device to XOa and 32 IP channels, see Field Alert #6 Upgrading to XOa 3 (27881). For more information about upgrading an ift device to 32 IP channels, see Field Alert 7 Upgrading ift to 32 Channels (29477). 12.2 Restoring a System License You can only restore a system license from a local backup copy if you have connected to the device once before using Xchange version 1.3.5 or higher. Caution! Before restoring, consider that the backup copy may be outdated. Remember that Xchange only creates a backup copy once, at the first time you connect to the ADPRO device. If anything has changed in the system license on the ADPRO device since that time, (for example, you have added encoder card licenses), these changes are not included in the backup copy.

User Manual 13 Synchronising Devices Xtralis Xchange Tool A device is out of sync when the license information on the device and the license information in the Xtralis database are different. This may happen, for example, if a license transfer or revocation is not properly completed. In that case, you need to synchronise the device again with the Xtralis database. The information in the database overrides the information on the device. This means that when you synchronise, Xchange overwrites the information in the device by the information from the Xtralis database. Xchange indicates devices that are out of sync by a black exclamation mark in the device list: You need to log on to synchronise a device. To synchronise a device that is out of sync, proceed as follows: 1. Open Xchange and log on. 2. In the device list, double-click the device that is out of sync. The device detail screen appears: 3. To see the differences between the Xtralis database and the device information, click click here for detail.

User Manual Xtralis Xchange Tool 14 Synchronising Legacy FastTrace 2 Devices If you upgrade FastTrace 2 devices from a software version lower than V2.06, the system automatically converts your existing analytics licenses to the new license formats. OPD (Outdoor Perimeter Detection) licenses are converted into IntrusionTrace application licenses. Loitering licenses are converted into LoiterTrace application licenses. The following warning appears in the client software: If you see this message, you need to synchronise your upgraded FastTrace 2 device with the Xtralis database. Xchange takes care of this synchronisation process automatically; there is no need to create or upload synchronisation files. To synchronise a legacy device, proceed as follows: 1. If the device is not yet available in Xchange, add it. 2. Connect to the device. Make sure that the connection is successful. Xchange creates a registration file in the background, which contains the information on the licenses currently installed on the device. 3. Log on in Xchange. (You can go offsite if necessary.) Xchange automatically synchronises the licenses on your legacy device. You can now manage your legacy device in the same way as your new devices. 64 27816_05

Xtralis Xchange Tool User Manual 17 Account Management 17.1 Account Groups and Users An account group is a group of Xchange users that can manage the same pool of licenses and devices. If you are the first person in your organisation to work with Xchange, you register your account via the License Portal site. This creates a new account group on the email address that you provide. You are automatically granted administrator rights to the account. If you have administrator rights, you can add users to your Xchange account group. All users in the same account group share licenses. If one user in the group adds licenses to the account (by redeeming a credit token), the new licenses appear in the list of available licenses for any user in the same group. Any user can then install the licenses on a device. Likewise, if one user in the group revokes a license from a device, the license becomes available again to all users in the group. Devices also belong to an account group. The first user that adds a device to Xchange, determines the account group to which the device belongs. Any user in the same account group can install new software, or install/revoke licenses on that device. However, when you open the device list, Xchange does not automatically display all the devices in the account group. All users in the group have to add the devices in their device list, and create their own device groups. This allows each user to have a limited list with only the devices that are in their care. It is not possible to manage licenses or devices that are in a different account group. However, it is possible to merge different existing account groups into one. For example, one of your colleagues has also registered via the License Portal site, instead of requesting a username and password from you. Your colleague then belongs to a separate account group. If you have administrator rights, you can add your colleague s account to yours. For more information, see Merging Existing Account Groups on page 80. It is technically possible to add devices to your list in Xchange that are already registered in a different account. If you know the identifier or IP address, and a valid username and password (for ADPRO devices), you can connect to the device and consult the device information (software, installed licenses). However, you cannot install licenses on such a device. Xchange indicates devices that belong to a different account group by a red exclamation mark in the device list: 17.2 User Profiles Xchange knows the following user types, or user profiles, each with their own access rights to the Xchange application: Administrators: Administrators can perform all the tasks described in this manual. Technicians: Technicians can perform all daily maintenance tasks, but the following restrictions apply: - They can only edit their own user data. - They cannot merge account groups. 17.3 Account Information The My Account section in Xchange allows you to display account group information, and to manage account groups and users. You need to log on to access the My Account section. To display account information, proceed as follows: 1. Open Xchange and log on. 2. In the menu on the left, click My Account.
