Microsoft Windows 2000 or XP
Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.5 or greater with Active X control
permission enabled

Setting Up Your Browser
There are two security settings in Internet Explorer that need to be set up
properly on each client PC from which
Polycom ReadiManager LX100 will be
accessed:
Allowing ActiveX controls
Setting the Polycom ReadiManager LX100 server as a trusted server
The settings described below refer to the Internet zone. The same settings
should also be applied to the Local Intranet zone as well, especially if
Polycom ReadiManager LX100 is setup with a WINS Name.
Allowing ActiveX controls
Many Active X controls are used in Polycom ReadiManager LX100. The first
time that a feature that requires an ActiveX control is used, the ActiveX
control will be automatically downloaded to the client PC. To make sure
the necessary ActiveX controls are downloaded properly, you may need
to change some security settings in Internet Explorer.
To set ActiveX control settings
1. Launch Internet Explorer on the client PC, and from the Tools menu,
choose Internet Options.
2. In the Internet Options dialog box, click the Security tab.
