4 Creating an MM8000 Add-on distribution package
4.1 Add-on installation kit
The MM8000 files for configuring a Generic DVR are distributed as an add-on kit
to be installed after the standard MM8000 software setup. Starting from an add-on
kit template, you can create the add-on installation kit with your own files and easily
install your Generic DVR configuration package on each MM8000 system that re-
quires it.
Contact the DMS8000 Customer Support to get the add-on installation kit tem-
plate for Generic DVR.
