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. 
MACHINE CONFIGURATION 
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.
