1Introduction

One of the key advantages of the IONODES PERCEPT Body Camera compared to other body worn

video surveillance solutions is its versatile integration with Milestone XProtect VMS. It uses

extensive features from ONVIF profiles G, S and T, along with flexible network configurations (LAN

via docking station, Wi-Fi) for live video and edge recording retrieval.

This integration is supported as of IONODES PERCEPT firmware 10.3.0.12 and has been validated

with Milestone XProtect 2021 R2 and higher. This document shows steps required for a simple

integration scenario. Integrators shall adjust to their specific system.

2Typical Deployment

A typical deployment scenario includes the PERCEPT Body Camera, a Docking Station , a Wi-Fi

access point, the LAN infrastructure and the local VMS (Milestone XProtect in this case). The

PERCEPT Body Camera can record data either directly to the local VMS through Wi-Fi or to its

internal memory and then use the wired Ethernet via the Docking Station to offload the contents

to the local VMS.

3Configuring the body camera before integration

Note: As a best practice before proceeding, please consider performing a reset to default factory

settings and reinitialization of the PERCEPT Body Camera. This will remove any unwanted

configuration left over from past usage of the device. Make sure to set it up on the same subnet

as the Milestone server. For more details, please consult the PERCEPT User Manual and/or

PERCEPT Quick Start Guide.

3.1 Create a new dedicated ONVIF user (recommended)

1. Once logged into the PERCEPT’s Web GUI, go to the Security page

2. Click on the Create User button

3. In the New User pop-up window, enter Username

4. Enter Password and repeat it to confirm

5. Select Super user role

6. Click on Create User

www.ionodes.com | [email protected]

Note: The default administrator account could also be used for integrating the body camera to the

VMS. However, it is considered good practice from a security perspective to create a dedicated

ONVIF user account, specifically for this purpose. The role “Superuser” gives the account

permissions for almost everything (the only exception is managing other users on the device).

This role is required to perform firmware upgrades from the VMS.

3.2 Configure video profiles

The PERCEPT Body Camera supports two (2) H.264/265 video encoder profiles and one (1) MJPEG

profile. Each profile enabled in the PERCEPT web GUI will be accessible by Milestone for

configurable usage.

1. From the Configuration page

2. Select the Video tab

3. Enable and configure each video Profile as required

www.ionodes.com | [email protected]

Note: The Encoder Type (codec) and enabled profiles are detected by the VMS when adding the device.

These settings must therefore be configured in the PERCEPT Body Camera before adding the

device to the VMS. Changing Encoder Type will reboot the device.

Note: Once added, modifications should only be done from within the VMS and not from the device’s

web interface.

3.3 Setup local recording on the body camera

1. From the Configuration page

2. Select the Recorder tab

3. Select the Media Recording subtab

4. Select the Video Profile for edge/onboard storage recording.

www.ionodes.com | [email protected]

Note: Profile #3 (MJPEG) is not supported for edge/onboard storage recording. To use local recording

on the PERCEPT, Profile #1 or Profile #2 must be enabled.

Note: The profile configured for local recording on the PERCEPT is not required to be the same as the

stream profile used for recording within Milestone VMS.

Note: Advanced recording configurations, such as grooming, pre-recording and post-recording, are

outside the scope of this integration guide. Refer to the PERCEPT User Manual for advanced

configuration.

3.4 Setup time synchronization on the body camera

1. From the Configuration page

2. Select the System tab

3. In the NTP Configuration section, enter the IP address of the same network time server

used by Milestone VMS to synchronize time

Note: It is possible to use an Internet-based NTP server if the body camera is connected to a network

that has Internet access.

3.5 Enable data transfer mode on Docking Station

When using a PERCEPT-DCK docking station for offloading data to the VMS, the user will need to

ensure that Online Mode (data transfer via Ethernet) is enabled for the docking station.

1. From the Configuration page

2. Select the System tab

3. Select the Docking Station subtab and make sure that “Enable Online Mode” is checked

Note: If the edge retrieval is enabled, it can create a bandwidth surge of more than 200Mbps when

the body camera starts offloading data to the VMS. Please ensure that the network can handle

the increased traffic.

For configuring advanced settings related to the behavior of the Docking Station please refer to

the PERCEPT Docking Station User Manual.

4Configuring the VMS before integration

4.1 Configure the time synchronization on the VMS

The Milestone Recording Server uses by default the time that is set on the workstation PC

used to host it.

To change the time settings on the host PC of the Milestone Recording Server:

1. From the Control Panel > Clock and Region

2. Select the Set the time and date tab

3. Select the Internet Time and then go to Change settings…

4. Select the Synchronize with an Internet time server and make sure to use a valid online

time server

5Adding the PERCEPT Body Camera to Milestone XProtect VMS

Now that the basics are covered on the PERCEPT Body Camera, it’s time to add it to the Milestone

XProtect VMS.

1. In the Milestone XProtect Management Client, click on Recording Servers

2. Right-click on the recording server where you want to add the PERCEPT Body Camera

3. Choose Add Hardware from the pop-up menu
