Access control and video on Windows Server
Install EAS on Windows Server and work in the browser: ZKTeco C3 access, cameras, interactive map. Same product as Ubuntu and Astra — separate installer and a 90-day trial key.
Shots from the live Windows lab (192.168.9.112): web admin 1.61, WinSW services.
Why Windows Server and EAS
Web admin in the browser
No thick Windows ACS client: security and HR use Chrome/Edge from any PC on the LAN.
ACS + video + map
One UI for passages, cameras, and the floor plan — same as Ubuntu and Astra.

The key is OS-bound: activates only on Windows Server. No credit card.

Windows FAQ
Which Windows version?
Windows Server with a GUI. Install via setup.exe; lean/offline packages are on the hub.
Do we need a separate Windows ACS client?
No. The admin is a web UI in the browser. Guards work from any PC on the network.
Does Home Assistant run on the same Windows box?
On Windows Server, Home Assistant runs only on a separate Linux machine; EAS uses IP + token. There is no on-box HA on Windows.
Will an Ubuntu key work on Windows?
No. Trial keys are OS-bound: a Windows key activates only on Windows Server.
Install EAS on Windows Server
90-day key and setup.exe from the hub — no credit card.
