Helios Installation Guide © 2012 MicroPower Technologies, Inc. 5 System Overview MicroPower Technologies has developed a unique power and wireless technology, TrustLinx, that is 90% lower power and 400% longer range than traditional wireless IP video camera technology. With this proprietary and patented technology, the MicroPower outdoor IP video cameras can be operational for five days without being recharged by the sun and maintain 24 hour operation at 5 frames per second (fps). In addition, TrustLinx, has a unique capability to cooperate with multiple wireless technologies that allow the transmission of video data at a potential distance of 1/2 mile with the highest possible video quality. Because of this unique and proprietary technology, the MicroPower Technologies Helios System with the MPT2500 Rugged-i Solar Wireless IP Video Camera and the MPT2700 MiniHub Wireless Video Hub work in tandem to provide a wireless IP video system which allows for the placement of the outdoor wireless IP video camera system practically anywhere that is needed. Thus, the MicroPower system eliminates the need for digging trenches to connect power to outdoor IP video cameras, significantly reducing installation time and labor costs. Up to six (6) Rugged-i IP video cameras can be associated to each MiniHub. The MiniHub is the data connection to a broadband Internet access point. The broadband Internet access point can be a wireless or wired router, or a broadband modem (cable model or ADSL modem).
Helios Installation Guide © 2012 MicroPower Technologies, Inc. 6 Installation Recommendations There are 5 major steps that are recommended for a successful installation. These are: 1. Site survey 2. System setup 3. Mounting MiniHub and Rugged-i camera 4. Adjust focus of the camera 5. Configure VMS I. Site Survey A well-thought out plan for the location of the hub and camera(s) are important steps to ensuring that the entire system can communicate and integrate with a new or existing video surveillance and management system. For complete guidance on performing a quality site survey, please refer to the MicroPower collateral titled “Site Survey Guidelines”. For best results, a line-of-sight design between the Helios system can provide a range of up to 1/2 mile. However, obstacles such as buildings, concrete, steel or stucco walls and ceilings will impact the wireless performance in terms of reach and data rate speeds. Hence, these items can affect performance and range so that the distance between the MiniHub and Rugged-i camera may need to be reduced. If the distance between the MiniHub and a Rugged-i camera is too far, then the video will either be non-operational since the MiniHub and Rugged-i camera did not pair correctly, or there will be noticeably slower frame rates. The distance between the MiniHub and a Rugged-i camera must be a minimum of 25 feet. For further education and guidelines on RF effects, refer to MicroPower document “A Guide to Optimizing Your RF Setup”. Since the Rugged-i camera is powered by solar, the impact of shadows and sun direction is an important consideration. The Rugged-i does not require direct alignment with the sun, but it is advisable to place the camera in a location which receives an adequate amount of sunlight throughout the day. The best time to perform a sun profile for all cameras is during the peak hours of sunlight from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m to determine shadow avoidance strategies. If the Rugged-i camera is being installed in the Northern Hemisphere, ideally the panels and cameras should be placed on the SOUTH side of a pole or facing SOUTH to minimize
Helios Installation Guide © 2012 MicroPower Technologies, Inc. 7 shadows created by the attached pole. East and west facing cameras are acceptable but not optimal. Avoid placing the camera on the NORTH end of a pole or facing NORTH. If the Rugged-i camera is installed in the Southern Hemisphere, ideally the panels and cameras should be placed on the North side of a pole or facing NORTH for minimal shadow impact. For more information, see the following link. http://www.ehow.com/how_6069191_install-panel-direction-aiming-degrees.html In addition, areas that are not recommended include: • Indoors • Under a roof eave • Underneath a tree canopy or foliage which does not receive adequate sunlight • Next to a building that will create shadows at a different part of the day Additionally, please make sure there are minimal obstructions to the camera antennas and that they are able to be appropriately positioned to receive and transmit data and video to the hub. II. System Setup The following steps are required when performing system setup and installations. 1. Add antennae to MiniHub 2. Configure MiniHub for the final IP address desired. 3. Reboot the hub system. 4. Add camera through the web interface. 5. Add camera antennae 6. Connect the battery cables to the camera. 7. Adjust camera settings if necessary 8. Verify the pairing between the MiniHub and Rugged-I camera in a close proximity environment. 9. View the camera connection through the web interface and Live Connection. 10. Begin mounting process of the final locations for the MiniHub and cameras.
Helios Installation Guide © 2012 MicroPower Technologies, Inc. 8 For most systems, the pairing between the MiniHub and the Rugged-I Camera have not been performed. If the pairing between the MiniHub and Rugged-I camera has been performed by the factory (steps 1 – 5 have been completed), the user only need to perform the VMS setup. Refer to the documents titled VMS setup for your specific VMS. During the configuration and pairing exercise, the antennas for the MiniHub and Rugged-i Camera are required to be attached before the battery connection with the camera is connected. A. Accessing the MiniHub Accessing the MiniHub is similar to setting up a wireless router in the home. A display or network console is used to directly address the MiniHub. There are two basic topologies in which the MiniHub can be addressed. The common method for systems which already have a sophisticated network in place is addressing the MiniHub through a network switch. It is also possible to communicate to the MiniHub from a server directly to the MiniHub through a crossover cable. Below are illustrations of both topologies. Network Switch Topology Crossover Cable Topology
Helios Installation Guide © 2012 MicroPower Technologies, Inc. 9 B. System Setup via the MiniHub It is important to configure the MiniHub first, prior to pairing the MiniHub to the Rugged-i cameras. System setup is performed through a web Interface while addressing the MiniHub through a network console, similar to how a wireless router is configured in a home setting. The MiniHub must be connected to a network switch prior to configuring the MiniHub or directly to a laptop/network server through a crossover cable. Communication to the administration console application of the MiniHub is performed through a standard browser via a network console. (Note: The MiniHub is a fully operational Linux server. Any application that is loaded on to the MiniHub will nullify the MicroPower Technologies warranty.) To configure the MiniHub, you will need to: 1. Connect the AC power cable to the MiniHub and plug into a power source. 2. Connect MiniHub Antennae 3. Power on the MiniHub using the toggle button on the rear of the unit. Make sure the Rugged-i camera and MiniHub are at least 25 feet away from each other. 4. Configure the network console so that it can directly address the MiniHub. The default IP address of the MiniHub is 192.168.0.100. You may need to modify the IPv4 adapter settings of the network console to match the default MiniHub IP address, since it is required to be in the same domain to be addressable. To communicate to the MiniHub, the first three numbers of the IP address of the network console need to match that of the default MiniHub IP address. In this case, it is necessary to enter 192.168.0.XXX where XXX is any number not previously issued within connected network. Power Toggle Button Antenna Connector(s) AC Power
Helios Installation Guide © 2012 MicroPower Technologies, Inc. 10 Below is an example screen of modifying the IPv4 properties in Windows to make this change. Press OK. 5. To communicate to the MiniHub through the network console, type the default IP address of the MiniHub in a browser. http://192.168.0.100 This is a temporary IP address which will eventually be modified through the system setup application. At this point, a login screen will appear. This is the MicroPower Technologies setup application. This login screen will look like the following:
Helios Installation Guide © 2012 MicroPower Technologies, Inc. 11 Type in admin for the username. The password should be left blank. At this point, the System Setup Web Interface will appear. Six tabs will be available; System Setup, Add/Remove Camera, Camera Settings, Hub Interface, Camera Info and Hub Status. All instructions and menu options to this Installation Guide pertain to Version 16.16 or greater. You will note Version 16.16 by looking up the Version number in the Hub Status Tab. The firmware version is located in the Web Interface on tab, Hub Status, under the heading PKTVER. See below.
Helios Installation Guide © 2012 MicroPower Technologies, Inc. 12 6. Begin configuration of the MiniHub by selecting the System Setup tab. This is the menu used to specify the final IP address, hostname, WiFi channel, Wi-Fi bandwidth, narrow band channel number, narrow band channel power and time out period. Typically, you will only need to change the IP address. To configure the IP address, single click the IP address. The user will then be directed to a Configure Hub IP address menu. See below. This menu allows a user to modify a static IP address, gateway address, subnet address or choose Dynamic otherwise known as DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol). Note: Caution should be used in using DHCP, since the IP address will be dynamic, making it difficult to determine the appropriate IP address to access the setup menu in the MiniHub. The only access to the MiniHub for setting modifications is by using the IP address as the URL in the web browser. Hence, using DHCP would require assistance from the IT administrator to perform discovery to determine the assigned IP address of the MiniHub at the moment in which modifications are desired. The new Hub IP address should correspond to the IP address within the subnet of your network. For instance, should your devices be assigned an IP address of 192.168.100.1, 192.168.100.5 and 192.168.100.10, then a viable Hub IP address would be 192.168.100.150.
Helios Installation Guide © 2012 MicroPower Technologies, Inc. 13 This allows other devices within your subnet network, including the NVR, to communicate with each other. Input the desired IP address and select Update. After updating the “Configure Hub IP Address menu”, you will be directed to the previous menu, System Setup. When Apply is selected at the System Setup tab, a dialog box will be displayed informing the user that a system reboot is required, since the MiniHub will not be configured for the new IP address until a reboot is complete. A manual reboot is performed by toggling the power button in the back. The other variables (WiFi Channel, Demod Level, Narrow Band Chan, Narrow Band Pwr) are selectable, but should not be necessary to change. 7. Address the hub through the network console and type in the new modified IP address. http://xxx.xxx.xx.xx The administration login screen will reappear. If there is a problem, then the IP address may need to be readjusted on the IPv4 properties page so that the network adapter is within the same domain as the new MiniHub IP Address.
Helios Installation Guide © 2012 MicroPower Technologies, Inc. 14 C. Add/Remove Cameras This is the menu used to add or remove cameras that are associated with the specific hub that is being configured. 1. Connect the antennas to the camera. 2. Select Tab labeled Add/Remove Camera. 3. Select option to “Add New”. A pop-up window for the MAC address of the camera is displayed. Add the MAC Address that is printed on the sticker of the Rugged-i camera. The sticker is located inside the camera enclosure. You will need to open the safety latch on the camera in order to access the inside of the Rugged-i camera. Press OK when the MAC address is entered. 1. Follow Step 3 again to add additional cameras (maximum of 6)
Helios Installation Guide © 2012 MicroPower Technologies, Inc. 15 2. Inside the camera enclosure, connect the battery charger cable to the battery connector. The camera ships with a fully charged battery pack. However, when the Rugged-i camera is shipped from the factory, the battery charger is disconnected from the battery connection. While the camera enclosure is open, it is best to attach the battery charger connectors together. You should hear a beep that indicates power being supplied to the system, when you complete the connection. The LED indicator light (on the left side while peering inside the camera) should glow red when the battery is connected. 3. Close the camera housing then lock the safety latch.
Helios Installation Guide © 2012 MicroPower Technologies, Inc. 16 D. Camera Settings The tab, Camera Settings, is used to customize each Rugged-i camera associated with the paired MiniHub. 1.

Off Stream Displays the stream ID of the camera StreamX where X can be 0 to 5 Use the Apply button at the end to apply new settings for that specific camera The Align button is used for aligning antennas. See below for further information.
Helios Installation Guide © 2012 MicroPower Technologies, Inc. 17 E. Align Mode The very last button, Align, is a special button for determining the best alignment of antennas between the MiniHub and Rugged-i cameras. The Web Interface allows the user to see the Narrow band and Wideband wireless performance for each individual camera. This mode is especially useful while performing the installation, optimizing the camera, Minihub, and antenna location and placement for the best performance for each camera. By selecting Align, the user will be directed into a new menu set that provide radio measurements on the signal power, quality and noise of the narrowband (NB Signal) and wideband (WB Signal) link. The opening menu will look like below. The meters are defined as you move left to right; top to bottom are:
Helios Installation Guide © 2012 MicroPower Technologies, Inc. 18 • NB Signal (cam) = (915 MHz) signal strength received by the camera • NB Signal (hub) = (915 MHz) signal strength received by the MiniHub • NB Quality (cam) = (915 MHz) signal quality received by the camera • NB Quality (hub) (915 MHz) signal quality received by the MiniHub • WB Signal = (2.4 GHz) signal strength • WB Noise = (2.4 GHz) noise level • WB Quality = (2.4 GHz) signal quality Note: The Narrow Band (NB) antennas have yellow bands on the bottom of the antenna on both the camera and the MiniHub. The Wideband (WB) Band antennas have red bands. The steps for optimizing the alignment of the camera and MiniHub are: 1. Maximize the Narrow Band signal strength 2. Maximize the Narrow Band signal quality 3. Maximize the WiFi band signal strength 4. Maximize the WiFi band quality IMPORTANT: YOU MUST SELECT STOP AFTER COMPLETING THE ALIGNMENT EXERCISE. IF STOP IS NOT PERFORMED, THE CAMERA AND MINIHUB WILL NOT OPERATE PROPERLY.
Helios Installation Guide © 2012 MicroPower Technologies, Inc. 19 Detailed instructions #1. Adjust the Narrow Band signal strength to be as high as possible. Acceptable ranges are -15 to -70. -15 is considered to be higher than -70. The values of the signal strength received by the camera and MiniHub are expected to be approximately the same value. If they are not within 5 units of each other, please call the factory for assistance. #2. Adjust the Narrow Band quality value to be as high as possible. Acceptable ranges will vary based on the RF environment. However, in general, values above 35 should yield an acceptable operation. #3. Adjust the WiFi Band signal strength to be as high (closer to zero) as possible. Acceptable ranges vary by environment. However, it will certainly work within the range of -40 to -60. -40 is considered to be higher than -60. If the Demod value is decreased to 36 Mbps, then acceptable values are -40 to -65. If the Demod value is decreased to 24 Mbps, then acceptable values are -40 to -70. #4. Adjust the WiFi Band quality value to be as high as possible. Acceptable ranges will vary based on the RF environment. However, in general, values above 70 should yield an acceptable operation. IMPORTANT: YOU MUST SELECT STOP AFTER COMPLETING THE ALIGNMENT EXERCISE. IF STOP IS NOT PERFORMED, THE CAMERA AND MINIHUB WILL NOT OPERATE PROPERLY. F. Hub Interface When the MiniHub is shipped from the factory, the standard default mode hub interface to the VMS system is set to the Native Mode. In the Native mode provides RTSP over UDP (unicast) or HTTP over TCP as the primary interface to a VMS generic driver. For some VMS systems, it is more appropriate to us the alternate mode, emulation mode. Please refer to the specific VMS setup guide for the desired VMS guide to be used. Below are a set of instruction on how to change the Hub Interface from the Native Mode to the emulation mode.
Helios Installation Guide © 2012 MicroPower Technologies, Inc. 20 Set Hub Interface to Emulation Mode Note: Before adding cameras, the setup requires specifying a collection of IP addresses for each camera. Before proceeding, obtain IP addresses from your network administrator that are not assigned to other devices and which conform to the subnet of the network over which the cameras and MiniHub will be communicating. 1) Point your browser to the IP address you assigned to the MiniHub and use the updated IP address to log in to the web management interface of the MiniHub. 2) Select the Hub Interface tab in the web management interface. This will display the Video Interface options. 3) Video Interface can select either the Native or Emulation mode. Select the Emulation Mode via the pull-down menu. 4) Upon selection of the Emulation Mode, a table of camera MAC addresses and associated IP Addresses will appear. These are camera MAC addresses that have already been entered using the Add/Remove Camera menu. Complete the table by entering static IP address(es) for each camera associated with this specific MiniHub, as provided by your system administrator. There must be a unique IP address for every camera that is to be added. 5) Once all the IP address(es) have been entered, select Apply.
Helios Installation Guide © 2012 MicroPower Technologies, Inc. 21 6) Reboot the Hub by moving to the Hub Status Tab, and selecting the Reboot Hub button. G. Demod For longer distances, it is recommended that lower demodulation levels be used. For instance, 36 Mbps or 24 Mbps would be more appropriate for especiallly long distances between the camera and the MiniHub. Each individual camera can be have their own demodulation level. Reboot Hub
Helios Installation Guide © 2012 MicroPower Technologies, Inc. 22 G. Live View The tab, Camera Info, is used as a diagnostic tab for MicroPower technical support and for connecting Live Video to test the connection. In particular, Live View can help determine whether a valid video stream is present, and whether non-operation is occurring because of the VMS interface or the camera operation. Below is the opening menu for Camera Info. Selecting the camera of interest will diplay two additional tabs; Camera MAC Address and Live View. The tab, Live View, will initiate a video connection between the MiniHub and the Camera. Select connect. This should display a live video screen of the camera. This display can be used to focus the camera when the camera is mounted in its final position.
Helios Installation Guide © 2012 MicroPower Technologies, Inc. 23 H. Battery Status Additional Status codes are available in the tab where the camera MAC address is displayed. The two primary status codes are: • Battery Status • Camera Status Battery Status provides an indication whether the solar charging subsystem is charging or discharging. Below is an example screen of when the solar subsystem is discharging. Camera Status provides an indication whether the camera state is active, lost or asleep. When the camera is asleep indicates the voltage on the battery is too low to maintain operation.
Helios Installation Guide © 2012 MicroPower Technologies, Inc. 24 III. Mounting the MiniHub’s External Antenna For professional installations, the MiniHub is required to use an external antennae. MicroPower supplies an external antenna kit complete with a low loss RF cable, 2:1 splitter and a directional antennae. For optimal results, the height of the external antenna from the MiniHub should be located at a minimum above any pedestrian traffic that may occur in the line-of-sight between the MiniHub and Rugged-i camera(s). Directional Antenna for the MiniHub The directional antenna attached to the MiniHub is required to communicate to the various cameras. The directional antenna supplied by Micropower can transmit and receive both the 900 MHz and 2.4 GHz frequencies. However, the 900 MHz and 2.4 GHz channels from the MiniHub must be combined before being connected to the directional antenna. In order to connect the channels together, a 2:1 splitter must used. The 2:1 splitter must be connected as shown below. The output of the 2:1 splitter is connected to the low loss RF cable.
Helios Installation Guide © 2012 MicroPower Technologies, Inc. 25 Directional Antenna Specifications The directional antenna should be mounted in a horizontal position. It is mounted straight to the cameras. The cameras must be within 60 degrees of each other to the MiniHub antenna. The directional antenna are mounted using a U-bolt to a tower or attached to the side.
Helios Installation Guide © 2012 MicroPower Technologies, Inc. 26
Helios Installation Guide © 2012 MicroPower Technologies, Inc. 27 IV. Mounting the Camera and the Directional Antenna Attach the mounting arm to the final location for the Rugged-i camera housing. Below is the specification for the mounting arm. The camera should be placed in an area which i receives an adequate amount of direct sunlight throughout the day. Ideally the camera should be placed on the south side. Other options are east and west locations, taking careful consideration to avoid mounting the camera on the North side location. The locking mounting bracket will allow the camera to remain in this position after it is installed. The camera must use directional antennae and mounted using the included bracket.
Helios Installation Guide © 2012 MicroPower Technologies, Inc. 28 IV. Adjusting the Camera Image Camera Lens Close-up View 1. While viewing the camera image through the Video Management System (VMS) camera image window, adjustments can be made to the camera’s focal length, iris or focus. 2.

If the Software and the Documentation have been licensed to Licensee for a limited term as specified in the applicable sales acknowledgement, invoice, or otherwise, then this EULA will be effective only until the end of such term. Software that is subject to any evaluation or limited term license may contain code that can disable most or all of the features of such software upon expiration of such evaluation or limited term license, and unless Licensee has paid the applicable license fee for any additional licenses, Licensee shall have no rights to use such Software or the corresponding Documentation upon expiration of any such license. 9.3. Obligations Upon Termination or Expiration. Licensee agrees, upon any termination or expiration of this EULA, to cease use of, and to destroy or return to MPT, all copies of the Software and the Documentation. At MPT's request, Licensee will certify in writing to MPT that Licensee has complied with these requirements. Notwithstanding anything in this EULA to the contrary, Sections 1, 3, 4, 5.3, 5.6, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10.2, 10.3, 11, 12, and 13 of this EULA shall survive any expiration or termination of this EULA and continue in perpetuity. 10. LIMITED WARRANTY; DISCLAIMER; LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. 10.1. Limited Warranty. MPT warrants only to the original Licensee that, for a period of two (2) years following MPT's initial shipment of Software (and not Updates thereto) to such Licensee, such Software, as delivered to such Licensee, will substantially conform to the corresponding Documentation. Licensee's sole and exclusive remedy, and MPT's entire liability, under this warranty is for MPT to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the defective or malfunctioning Software to substantially conform to the corresponding Documentation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, MPT will have no liability for any defective or malfunctioning Software under this Section 10.1 if (a) Licensee fails to notify MPT of the defect or malfunction during the Warranty Period, or (b) the defect or malfunction is caused by (i) use of such Software in combination with any hardware or other software that has not been approved in writing by MPT, (ii) the negligence or fault of Licensee or a third party, (iii) Licensee's failure to follow the instructions set forth in the corresponding Documentation, or (iv) modifications to that Software made by any person other than MPT or an authorized representative of MPT. 10.2. Disclaimer. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN SECTION 10.1 ABOVE, THE SOFTWARE AND THE DOCUMENTATION ARE PROVIDED “AS IS”, AND MPT AND ITS SUPPLIERS AND LICENSORS DO NOT MAKE AND SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIM ALL EXPRESS AND IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF EVERY KIND RELATING TO THE SOFTWARE, THE DOCUMENTATION, AND/OR USE OF THE SOFTWARE OR THE DOCUMENTATION (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ACTUAL AND IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON INFRINGEMENT), AS WELL AS ANY WARRANTIES THAT THE SOFTWARE OR THE DOCUMENTATION (OR ANY ELEMENTS OF EITHER) WILL ACHIEVE A PARTICULAR RESULT, OR WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR FREE. 10.3. Limitation of Liability. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL MPT OR ITS SUPPLIERS OR LICENSORS BE LIABLE UNDER ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY FOR ANY CONSEQUENTIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, PUNITIVE, OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES OF ANY KIND (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, DAMAGES ARISING FROM LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, DATA, OR USE, OR FROM INTERRUPTED COMMUNICATIONS OR DAMAGED DATA, OR FROM ANY DEFECT OR ERROR, OR IN CONNECTION WITH LICENSEE'S ACQUISITION OF SUBSTITUTE GOODS OR SERVICES OR MALFUNCTION OF THE SOFTWARE, OR ANY SUCH DAMAGES ARISING FROM BREACH OF CONTRACT OR WARRANTY OR FROM NEGLIGENCE OR STRICT LIABILITY) IN CONNECTION WITH THIS EULA, THE SOFTWARE, THE DOCUMENTATION, AND/OR ANY USE OF THE SOFTWARE OR THE DOCUMENTATION, EVEN IF MPT OR ANY OF ITS SUPPLIERS OR LICENSORS OR ANY OTHER PERSON HAS BEEN ADVISED OR SHOULD KNOW OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES, AND NOTWITHSTANDING THE FAILURE OF ANY REMEDY TO ACHIEVE ITS INTENDED PURPOSE. WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, MPT'S MAXIMUM AGGREGATE LIABILITY IN CONNECTION WITH THIS EULA, THE SOFTWARE, THE DOCUMENTATION, AND/OR USE OF THE SOFTWARE OR THE DOCUMENTATION SHALL NOT EXCEED THE TOTAL AMOUNT OF ANY LICENSE FEES AND/OR MAINTENANCE FEES PAID BY LICENSEE IN CONNECTION WITH THE SOFTWARE. 11. U.S. GOVERNMENT RESTRICTED RIGHTS. 11.1. Commercial Software. The Software and the Documentation are deemed to be “commercial computer software” and “commercial computer software documentation,” respectively, for purposes of Federal Acquisition Regulations (“FAR”) 12.212 and the Defense FAR Supplement (“DFARS”) 227.7202-1, 227.7202-3, and 227.7202-4, and the restrictions set forth in such regulations, and this EULA shall be deemed to be the license described in such regulations. Any use, modification, reproduction, release, performance, display, or disclosure of the Software or the Documentation by any agency, department, or entity of the United States Government (the “Government”) shall be governed solely by the terms of this EULA and is prohibited except to the extent expressly permitted by the terms of this EULA. The Software and the Documentation are also deemed to be “restricted computer software” for purposes of FAR 52.227-14(g)(3) (Alternate III (June 1987)) and FAR 52.227-19, which clauses are incorporated herein by reference subject to the express restrictions and prohibitions set forth above. 11.2. Certain Technical Data. Any technical data provided by MPT in connection with the Software or the Documentation that is not covered by the above provisions is deemed to be “technical information related to commercial computer software or commercial
Helios Installation Guide © 2012 MicroPower Technologies, Inc. 34 computer software documentation” for purposes of FAR 12.212 and the restrictions set forth therein, and is deemed to be “technical data or information related or pertaining to commercial items or processes” developed at private expense for purposes of DFARS 227.7102-1 and 227.7102 2 and the restrictions set forth therein, and this EULA shall be deemed to be the license described in such regulations. Any use, modification, reproduction, release, performance, display, or disclosure of such technical data by the Government shall be governed solely by the terms of this EULA and is prohibited except to the extent expressly permitted by the terms of this EULA. Such technical data is also deemed to be “limited rights data” as defined in FAR 52.227-14(a) (Alternate I (June 1987)) and for purposes of FAR 52.227-14(g)(2) (Alternate II (June 1987)), which clauses are incorporated herein by reference subject to the express restrictions and prohibitions set forth above. Such technical data shall also be deemed to be “technical data” for purposes of DFARS 252.227-7015, which clause is incorporated herein by reference subject to the express restrictions and prohibitions set forth above. 11.3. Third Party Acceptance of Restrictions. Licensee shall not provide the Software, the Documentation, or the technical data described in Section 11.2 above to any party, including but not limited to the Government, unless such third party accepts the same restrictions as are set forth in this Section 11. Licensee is responsible for ensuring that the proper notice is given to all such third parties and that the Software, the Documentation, and such technical data is properly marked with the required legends. Nothing in this Section 11.3 shall be deemed to modify the restrictions on transfer or disclosure set forth elsewhere in this EULA. 12. GOVERNING LAW; ENFORCEMENT. 12.1. Governing Law. This EULA and the rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall be governed by the laws of the State of California, without reference to conflicts of laws principles; provided, however, that if the Software and the Documentation is licensed outside the United States, then certain local laws may apply. The parties agree to the non exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts in San Diego County, California in connection with the litigation of any dispute pertaining to this EULA and waive any objection to such jurisdiction based on venue or personal jurisdiction. IN ADDITION, THIS EULA WILL NOT BE GOVERNED OR INTERPRETED IN ANY WAY BY REFERRING TO ANY LAW BASED ON THE UNIFORM COMPUTER INFORMATION TRANSACTIONS ACT (UCITA), EVEN IF THAT LAW HAS BEEN ADOPTED IN CALIFORNIA, AND THE UNITED NATIONS CONVENTION ON CONTRACTS FOR THE INTERNATIONAL SALE OF GOODS IS HEREBY EXCLUDED. 12.2. Equitable Relief. Licensee acknowledges that any actual or threatened breach of the provisions of this EULA will constitute immediate, irreparable harm to MPT for which monetary damages would be an inadequate remedy; that injunctive relief is an appropriate remedy for any such breach or threatened breach; and that, in such event, MPT will be entitled to immediate injunctive relief without the requirement of posting bond. 13. MISCELLANEOUS. Except as otherwise expressly agreed in a written, signed agreement between MPT and Licensee, this EULA sets forth the entire agreement between MPT and Licensee with respect to the Software, the Documentation, and/or Licensee's use of the Software and the Documentation, and it is expressly agreed that the terms of this EULA will supersede the terms in any of Licensee's purchase orders or other ordering documents. There are no implied licenses with respect to the Software or the Documentation. No provision of this EULA may be waived, modified, or superseded except by a written instrument signed by each of MPT and Licensee. No failure or delay in exercising any right or remedy shall operate as a waiver of any such (or any other) right or remedy. The language of this EULA shall be construed as a whole, according to its fair meaning and intent, and not strictly for or against either party, regardless of who drafted or was principally responsible for drafting this EULA or any specific term or condition hereof. This EULA shall bind and inure to the benefit of the parties and their successors and permitted assigns. Both parties are acting as independent contractors with respect to the activities hereunder. In the event of any legal proceeding between the parties arising out of or related to this EULA, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover, in addition to any other relief awarded or granted, its costs and expenses (including but not limited to reasonable attorneys' and expert witness' fees) incurred in any such proceeding. If any provision in this EULA is invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall be construed, limited, or altered, as reasonably necessary, to eliminate the invalidity or unenforceability and all other provisions of this EULA shall remain in effect. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Should Licensee have any questions concerning this EULA, or if Licensee desires to contact MicroPower Technologies for any reason, please contact the company at: 4225 Executive Square, Suite 430, La Jolla, CA 92037, or send an email to MicroPower Technologies at support@micropowerapp.com.
Helios Installation Guide © 2012 MicroPower Technologies, Inc. 35 GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION 0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed under the terms of this General Public License. The "Program", below, refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program" means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law: that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another language. (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in the term "modification".) Each licensee is addressed as "you". Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the Program (independent of having been made by running the Program). Whether that is true depends on what the Program does. 1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty; and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License along with the Program. You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee. 2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1 above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions: a. You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices stating that you changed the files and the date of any change. b. You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third parties under the terms of this License. c. If the modified program normally reads commands interactively when run, you must cause it, when started running for such interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this License. (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on the Program is not required to print an announcement.) These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program, and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it. Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or collective works based on the Program. In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under the scope of this License. 3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it, under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following: a. Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or, b. Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,
Helios Installation Guide © 2012 MicroPower Technologies, Inc. 36 c. Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer to distribute corresponding source code. (This alternative is allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you received the program in object code or executable form with such an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.) The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for making modifications to it. For an executable work, complete source code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to control compilation and installation of the executable. However, as a special exception, the source code distributed need not include anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component itself accompanies the executable. If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy the source code from the same place counts as distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not compelled to copy the source along with the object code. 4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License. However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance. 5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or distribute the Program or its derivative works. These actions are prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying the Program or works based on it. 6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein. You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to this License. 7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues), conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may not distribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to refrain entirely from distribution of the Program. If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other circumstances. It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the integrity of the free software distribution system, which is implemented by public license practices. Many people have made generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed through that system in reliance on consistent application of that system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot impose that choice. This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to be a consequence of the rest of this License. 8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the original copyright holder who places the Program under this License may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates the limitation as if written in the body of this License. 9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of the General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns. Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and "any later version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions either of that version or of any later version published by the Free Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software Foundation.
Helios Installation Guide © 2012 MicroPower Technologies, Inc. 37 10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally. NO WARRANTY 11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION. 12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING WILL AND COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
