Enabling The Upnp User Interface - FLIR M400 Installation Manual

Enabling Universal Plug and Play (UPnP)

Enabling the UPnP User Interface

In some cases, Windows will discover UPnP devices and provide its own user interface to control
them. Windows Vista and Windows 7 automatically detect network devices in the Network page. If
UPnP devices are hidden, a prompt at the top of the screen will ask to display hidden devices.
With Windows XP, install the optional user interface (UI) component using the steps below. This UI
component Web page a balloon tip for newly discovered devices and places an icon for each
device in the My Network Places folder. To enable the UPnP UI, follow these steps:
1. Click Start, click Control Panel, and then click Add or Remove Programs.
2. In the Add or Remove Programs dialog box, click Add/Remove Windows Components on the
left side.
3. In the Windows Components Wizard, click Networking Services and then click Details.
4. Select the Universal Plug and Play check box.
5. Click OK, and then click Next in the Windows Components Wizard. The Windows XP
installation CD may be required.
See if any UPnP-enabled devices exist on your network by opening My Network Places. If there
are UPnP devices on the local network, they will appear here with a generic icon based on the
device type. In the future when a UPnP device is installed on the network, a notifying icon will
appear briefly in the System Tray. When you see this icon, go to My Network Places to view the
new device. Double-click on the icon to bring up the Web page.
