This installation is complete and fully operational.
Note that the default ECS configuration is somewhat minimal (as we assume nothing about your needs).
If you provide us a description of your needs/devices, we'll promptly customize it accordingly (no charge).

Nor does it use a central server, or upload any information to same.
ECS is a portable application (i.e. no files are created or modified outside of the ECS folder).
