Branding the Remote Update System (RUS) Installer

The Sentinel Remote Update System (RUS) is an executable utility that you can customize (brand) and send to your end users to enable secure, remote updating of the license and memory data of Sentinel protection keys after they are deployed. RUS branding enables you to associate the RUS utility with the Batch Code of the keys that you want to update. You can also define, format, and preview the GUI that is to be displayed in the RUS.

You can rebrand the RUS installer to include the name and logo of your company. You can use the formatting toolbar to give a professional look to your company name by adjusting the font size, type, color, and alignment. You can also provide a link to your company's official website. All changes made on this page are visible when you generate and run the RUS installer.
