    It's up to you. Do you want it to be silent? If so just a /quiet

    However, you can set parameters when creating the SEP install package from the SEPM.

    so according to rafeeq 

    "Command for installing main Msi :

    msiexec.exe /i PS_1.msi /quiet

    Just replace Adobe with SEP"

    now one thing is that there is no adobe in this command and second i dont have msi file its just one single file exported from SEPM named "setup.exe"

    You need to export .msi file

    check below articles and point 4

    4) Select the way it needs to be saved (Single .exe or separate files in .MSI).

    got it

    so the argument will be

    "msiexec.exe /"filename".msi /quiet"

    what is "msiexec.exe" in this case?

    The Windows Installer technology uses Msiexec.exe for installing MSI and MSP packages. This tool gives you full control over the installation process, allowing you to set:

    • install options (install, uninstall, administrative install, advertise a product)
    • display options (full, basic or no UI during the installation)
    • restart options (if the machine will be restarted after the installation)
    • logging options
    • update options (apply or remove updates)
    • repair options (only for an installed package)
    • public properties which are used by the installation

    The usual form of the msiexec command line is this:

    msiexec.exe <install_option> <path_to_package> [package_parameters]

    Install Options

    When launching an installation package, you can set the install type through these options:

    msiexec.exe [/i][/a][/j{u|m|/g|/t}][/x] <path_to_package>

    As I already had mentioned it was /quiet

    You need to export the MSI from SEPM, this is another possibility...
