Verify System Requirements

Before beginning the setup, confirm that your system meets our recommended requirements. Unlike a minimal

LukWerks setup, remote viewing consumes more resources and requires a high-speed internet connection to

perform well.

For remote viewing, confirm that your machine matches or exceeds the recommended configuration.

Remote Viewing Using Cell Phones & Handhelds

LukWerks provides remote viewing using Windows Mobile cell phones, handhelds, and web browsers. The

common requirement for a compatible web browser is support for Windows Media Player 9. The common

requirement for the cell phone is also support for Windows Media 9. Usually you can find these phones

labeled as Windows Mobile or Windows Smartphones.

LukWerks is compatible with a wide range of Microsoft Windows Mobile cell phones and wireless handhelds. Of

course, these devices require Internet access either through a cell service provider or wireless Internet hub,

depending on your device.
