2 System Overview

DigitalPatroller DP-2 is a data recording, transfer and video management system that operates solely in the digital domain. All of the components that make up the DP-2 system are designed to work together in a seamless manner to ensure maximum effectiveness with a minimum of training or intervention by line officers or supervisory personnel. The DP-2 system consists of three operational units differentiated by where each is installed:

The DP-2 In-Vehicle Data Capture System consists of components installed in the vehicle. Using a combination of automatic and manual functions, a public safety officer operates the DP-2 system to document traffic stops and other dynamic policing situations. This is done solely in an effort to capture an accurate and objective record of what transpires.

The Data Transfer System is generally installed in a garage or external parking facility where departmental vehicles are located during down time or shift changes. After digital files are recorded with the In-Vehicle Data Capture System, they are transferred using the Data Transfer System so that the management of files could begin.

The DP-2 Servers (located in a precinct, headquarters or station facility) consists of computer hardware and robust software tools (including DPView) for performing data management functions quickly and efficiently.

The DP-2 equipment comprises a digital recorder (DP-2 MDVR), one camera (a second and third camera are optional), GPS, remote microphone and Ethernet trunk/boot connector (see Figure 1). Display consists of either or both the LCD Monitor and DP-2 Mobile Data Terminal (MDT) Application.

This chapter provides a brief overview of these system components. Subsequent chapters describe each component in detail.

You may observe in this manual that certain features and functions are configurable by the system administrator.

These configurations can be varied to meet the changing needs of customers.

2.1 In-Vehicle Data Capture System

The DigitalPatroller® 2 In-Vehicle Data Capture System captures incidents in or near a vehicle using video, audio and metadata formats for storage and retrieval. DigitalPatroller DP-2 recordings become computer data files. The capture system is installed in a vehicle and supplied as a basic package with:

DP-2 MDVR DP-2 Mobile Digital Video Recorder records and stores video from the connected cameras, metadata from other equipment like GPS, audio from microphones, etc.

Camera The main camera (camera 1) is the forward view camera; a second camera may be used in the passenger compartment of the vehicle.

Vehicle Sensors The vehicle’s digital inputs send a signal to the DP-2 MDVR, which can be configured to automatically start recording the event. The inputs supported include ignition, light bar, siren, doors, brakes, crash sensor, driver airbag, “speed”, “radar”, marker button and two additional inputs labeled “GPIO10”, “GPIO11”.

NOTE: Except for the ignition input, all other inputs are optional.

GPS Records the location of the vehicle as part of the metadata in the video files.

LCD Monitor (with Control Panel)

The LCD monitor displays the video from the cameras, controls the operation of the DP-2 MDVR for recording and playback.

MDT A Mobile Data Terminal (laptop computer) that replaces the function and operation of the LCD monitor. The MDT enables you to enter data into the system with a keyboard.

Microphone One or two wireless microphones are used to record any audio; an additional microphone may be used in the passenger compartment.

Trunk Connector The connector in the trunk is used to download the recorded video from the DP-2 MDVR to the DP-2 Docking Server via a CAT-6 cable.

Optional system components include a radar system data interface. The table below lists the radar devices that are supported by the system.

2.2 Data Transfer System

After digital files are recorded with the DigitalPatroller® In-Vehicle Data Capture System, they are transferred for storage using one of the three Data Transfer Systems options:

Wired Data Transfer

Page 26 of 252

Page 27 of 252

The data transfer system (comprising one or more docking stations and interconnecting cables) is usually installed in a garage or external parking facility where departmental vehicles are located during downtime or shift changes. This system will transfer recordings (data files) created by the In-Vehicle Data Capture System to the data storage and retrieval system.

Adding surge suppressors to the LAN cable leading to the outdoor connector can cause serious degradation of upload speed.

Wireless Data Transfer

The “TX” button on the Mobile Data Terminal (or LCD monitor, depending on which option is installed) can be used to activate the wireless transfer of data via the 802.11 network when available.

The "TX" button can also be used in wired scenarios if your Department chooses to configure it that way; otherwise upload begins as soon as it is connected.

Desktop Data Transfer

The DP-2 MDVR Storage Blade can be removed from the DP-2 MDVR and placed into a Desktop Docking PC for transfer of data to the server.

Upon successful docking with the docking server, all footage is removed from the DP-2 Removable Storage Blade.

For more details see chapter 5.

2.3 DP-2 Servers and DPView

Following the transfer of digital files using the Data Transfer System, management of the files begins. The data storage and retrieval system is usually located in a precinct, headquarters or station facility, and consists of:

High-capacity computer storage server

Docking Server

One or more computer workstations

Essential software to retrieve, play and manage the files that have been transferred into the system.

When newly recorded files are transferred from a vehicle into server storage, they are added to others already residing on the system’s computer servers. This stored collection of files form a database of information.

As the database grows to potentially thousands of files, searching for any one file in particular may be difficult unless the database could be searched quickly and efficiently using easy-to-understand methods. To facilitate this, each stored DigitalPatroller DP-2 file contains unique identifying data, such as squad number, date and time.

In order to perform data management functions quickly and efficiently, robust software tools are included with the DigitalPatroller DPView. DPView is the software used to retrieve and view incident videos.

3 In-Vehicle Data Capture System

The DigitalPatroller In-Vehicle Data Capture System consists of components installed in the vehicle itself. The DP-2 equipment comprises a digital recorder (DP-2 MDVR), LCD monitor, camera, GPS, remote microphone and Ethernet trunk/boot connector. These items are described in the following sections.

Figure 1 - DP-2 In-Vehicle System

3.1 DP-2 Mobile Digital Video Recording

At the heart of the DP-2 system is the Mobile Digital Video Recorder (DP-2 MDVR).

Page 29 of 252

Figure 2 - DP-2 MDVR Exploded View

DP-2 will operate, but cannot record video until the temp rises/lowers to operational limits.

The hard disk blade cannot operate below 0˚C (32˚F). The DP-2 MDVR has a temperature sensor that disables the drive and enables a heater to pre-heat the drive to its correct operating temperature. A power-up pre-heat time of approximately one minute per degree °F or ˚C should be allowed under these circumstances. Pre-heat time may be affected by cabin heating, ambient temperature changes, and other factors. These temperature modes are displayed on the LCD monitor (see 4.2.1

Input supply voltage to DP-2 MDVR must be in the 9VDC to 28VDC range.

Digital inputs need to respect the following constraints:

Signals must last at least 50ms (this includes debouncing time)

Low signals must be in the 0VDC to 1VDC range

High signals must be in the 9VDC to 24VDC range.

3.1.1 DP-2 MDVR Mounting Plate

Each DP-2 MDVR is supplied with a mounting template, mounting plate and screws. These should be used when mounting the DP-2 MDVR.

Figure 3 - DP-2 MDVR with Mounting Plate

Mounting Plate

Figure 4 - DP-2 MDVR Mounting Plate

The DP-2 MDVR unit should be mounted in the interior of the vehicle with typical locations including the cage between the driver and passenger seats and the rear floor board. The specific mounting location is determined by the vehicle configuration and the customer’s preference. Trunk mounting is not recommended without appropriate mitigation of the physical and environmental conditions in the trunk, which in most cases will require special mounting brackets, protection from liquids and debris, and supplemental heating and/or cooling of the trunk.

The DP-2 MDVR can be mounted on its side or flat or upright, as long as the connector panel faces downwards and all cables are routed downwards from the connectors.

Note that all 10/100 Ethernet connections are hubbed to a single NIC (see section 3.1.2, above). Only one connection will work at a time.

3.1.4 DP-2 MDVR Configuration

The DP-2 Configuration utility is versatile, allowing loading and saving of the configuration locally, to/from the unit or database, as required.

See also:

Installation of DP-2 QuickConfig - section 4.10.2.

Equivalent DPView DVR Config function - section 7.4.2.

The functions offered by Quick config and DVR config - section 7.3.

After the DP-2 MDVR is installed, a standard laptop PC is used to log on to the MDVR and set site-specific parameters using the DP-2 QuickConfig application. This is required to allow the unit to dock to the DP-2 Server. Typically, the configuration is loaded from the DP-2 MDVR (see section 7.3.1.2) and saved back to the same DP-2 MDVR (see section 7.3.5.2). Local files on the laptop can be created and used as templates to simplify this step (see sections 7.3.1.1 and 7.3.5.1).

If configured on the server, software updates are sent to the DP-2 MDVR during docking, as described in 3.1.5. During the first docking, configuration is also uploaded to the DP-2 Server. From then on, the configuration on the server overwrites the configuration on the DP-2 MDVR unit during each docking. The configuration stored on the server can be updated with the DP-2 QuickConfig tool (see sections 7.3.1.3 and 7.3.5.1), or with the equivalent DVR Config function of DPView.

As new configuration items are added with newer software versions, it is recommended to perform basic configuration in the vehicle (in particular server addresses), and detailed configuration through the DP-2 Server after the first docking of the vehicle. The server also has the facility to deploy options across multiple vehicles, simplifying the configuration of vehicles.

3.1.5 DP-2 MDVR Software Update

You must configure the DP-2 MDVR to enable it to transfer data before you can use it. This is described in section 4.10. This allows it to both upload its video and obtain the latest MDVR software available on the server.

The software of the DP-2 MDVR units must be upgraded to the latest release available. All production releases of the DP-2 MDVR software can be upgraded through the docking process. The administration action to do this is described in section 7.1.

3.2 DP-2 MDVR Video Storage Options

Each DP-2 MDVR must have a DP-2 Removable Storage Blade in order to record video – see Figure 2. Different models of storage blade are available – see Appendix B (section 8.3) or contact your sales representative for the latest models.

These storage blades each contain one or two identical disk drives, and these are either ruggedized hard-drives (suitable for automotive use) or solid state hard-drives (suitable for helicopter and other high vibration environments). The size of the drives and the storage mode determines the amount of video able to be stored between complete data transfer sessions.

Page 34 of 252

The DP-2 MDVR storage modes are described below.

3.2.1 DP-2 MDVR Storage Modes

The type of storage blade is automatically detected by the DP-2 MDVR. When a single-drive blade is connected the DP-2 MDVR stores all video to the single drive, regardless of configuration.

When a two-drive blade is connected, the DP-2 MDVR will store video to one or both drives, according to the configuration of the unit:

‘First-found’: Use only a single drive. In case of errors accessing the preferred drive, uses other drive until first drive becomes available again.

striping mode: Alternate between the two drives. Provides maximum storage capacity, particularly useful when using solid-state drives, which tend to be of smaller capacity.

Redundant mode: minimize video loss by capturing live video and data streams on both drives at the same time. This mode is described in detail below.

The storage mode is set via the DP-2 Configuration Tool (see 7.3.3).

3.2.2 Fault-tolerant Redundant Mirroring

To minimize the chances of video loss, in this mode, the DP-2 MDVR:

Detects write errors and restores missing video on the fly

Continues writing to the remaining drive when one drive fails

Restores synchronicity in the event that the failed drive recovers.

Only one drive is used for reads. If a drive fails, then the DVR will read from the other drive. The system will direct all future writes to the remaining drive.

If the failing drive comes back online, the DVR will recognize this and re-synchronize the data.

The TX button (Figure 21 R) is used for initiating upload to the DP-2 Servers. Pressing the button initiates the video upload process. Docking status is shown on the DP-1 LCD screen, and successive audio alerts stating “transmission started” and “transfer complete” sound.

The system administrator can make wired and/or wireless docking automatic or manual. See chapter 7 DP-2 System Administration for more details.

4.3 MDT Menus and Controls

The DigitalPatroller 2 Mobile Digital Video Recorder (DP-2 MDVR) can also be controlled using a laptop PC running the Mobile Data Terminal (MDT) control software.

The MDT application software is automatically updated, installed and started by the DigitalPatroller 2 MDVR whenever the MDT Downloader application is started. This ensures the latest compatible feature set is ready for operation.

Figure 32 - MDT Menus and Controls

The DigitalPatroller 2 MDT software, installed on a vehicle’s existing laptop, provides the means to operate the system, as well as enable video display, secondary status indicators, supplementary data displays and voice announcements for a number of actions. The main screen has seven clearly differentiated display areas:

1. Buttons that correspond to the Menu selections in the DP-2 LCD Monitor at the top (for details see 4.3.3)

2. Camera, Microphones, and Playback control buttons at the left of the screen (for details see 4.3.5)

3. MDT view screen, transmit and playback controls

5. Camera control buttons

6. Indicators that show which sensors of the vehicle are active and the status bar at the bottom of the screen.

The vehicle’s sensors send a signal to the DP-2 MDVR, which can be configured to automatically start recording the event. Digital inputs supported include ignition, light bar, siren, doors, brakes, crash sensor, driver airbag, “speed”, “radar”, marker button.

4.3.1 Running MDT

Double-click the Integrian Mobile Data Terminal shortcut on the in-vehicle laptop PC. Depending on system configuration, this directly loads the main screen (Figure 32) or displays an MDT login screen.

4.3.2 Logging on to the MDT

The Administrator sets the type of login required. Depending on how your department is set up, you will login using one of the following methods:

7 character login: five digits plus a two digit checksum (This is the Integrian recommended method for security purposes).

5 character login: five digits which connects all recorded video to the user associated with the five digit login.

5 character alpha-numeric login: 5 alpha-numeric characters which can be any combination of lowercase or uppercase letters and/or numbers. After successful login all recorded video will be connected to that user with that 5 character login.

Procedure 28 - Logging on to MDT

Note: If the type of login is set to mandatory, unspecified, the MDT opens a keyboard login screen.

Figure 33 - MDT Officer Login Keyboard

Page 72 of 252

Note: If the type of login is set to alphabetical, the MDT opens a keypad login screen for an alpha-based login.

Figure 34 - MDT Officer Login Keypad

Note: If the type of login is set to mandatory, numeric, the MDT opens a number pad login screen.

Figure 35 - MDT Officer Login Number Pad

1. Enter your ID.

2. Click Clear to correct mistakes. Cancel closes the MDT.

Example: If your login ID is your badge number and has only four digits, you must enter a leading zero (0) to make it five characters. (i.e. Badge number 1234 would become 01234).

3. Click Login when your ID is entered correctly. The main screen displays as in Figure 32.

Note: Alternatively, the number and enter keys can be used on the MDT keyboard. If the login is correct, the MDT can be used. If not, the system will continue to ask for the officer login.

When the login is correctly entered, all videos recorded will now be assigned to your ID. To change officers, click Logoff on the MDT. The next officer can now login with their ID.

4.4 Color 22x Zoom Camera

The 22x zoom camera (P/N 700-0092) is a rugged, high-resolution (720x480), software-controllable color video camera including:

automatic white balance, focus, exposure, back-light compensation

heater element to counteract condensation

blinder LED, activated during recording, visible only to subjects within the camera field of view.

The DP-2 MDVR software detects different lighting conditions and employs a range of presets to optimize the camera performance. The operator controls the camera zoom, and can command the DP-2 MDVR to operate a license zoom on this camera, when fitted as camera 1. Event triggers can also be programmed to cause automatic license zoom (see 7.3.2.8).

A color 22x zoom camera is typically directed out the front windshield of the vehicle (“Forward View Camera”) as the vehicle’s main camera (camera 1). Another 22x camera may also be directed out the rear windshield (camera 2).

Figure 48 - Color 22x Zoom Camera

4.5 Low-Light Camera

The low-light camera (P/N 700-0094V2) is a rugged, lower-resolution, color video camera including infrared LEDs to enable video capture in any lighting condition. These cameras are typically used to monitor the passenger or rear seat of the vehicle (camera 2 and/or 3).

Figure 49 - Low-Light Camera

4.6 DP-2 Wireless Microphone

In many public-safety situations, what is heard can often be as important as what is seen. Correctly capturing audio is therefore critical. To this end, the DP-2 MDVR in-vehicle video capture system supports up to two wireless microphones (the DP-2 Wireless Microphone system), one In-Vehicle microphone.

The DP-2 Wireless Microphone system is used to send an audio signal wirelessly from a transmitter worn by an officer to a receiver located in the officer’s vehicle. The receiver then sends the audio signal to the DP-2 MDVR where the signal is then recorded.

4.6.1 DP-2 Wireless Microphone Models

Two models of DP-2 Wireless Microphones are used and have slightly different characteristics, as explained below. The two models identified by their transmission

Page 83 of 252

frequency: 900MHz (shown on left, with no specific marking) and 2.4GHz (shown on right, marked with 2.4GHz).

Note: The 2.4GHz transmitter is not compatible with the 900MHz receiver and vice versa.

However, both models can co-exist on the same system provided each uses its own transmitter and receiver.

Figure 50 - DP-2 Wireless Microphone Models

The 2.4GHz DP-2 Wireless Microphone is the current model. Each model of the DP-2 Wireless Microphone system consists of three components:

DP-2 Wireless Microphone Transmitter. This transmitter and microphone pickup (see Figure 51) is a small unit worn on the body. Each transmitter comes with a self-contained rechargeable battery and accessories — a wired, external microphone and leather belt pack.

Note: You can swap 2.4GHz wireless microphones with any other 2.4GHz microphone cradle (receiver). The same charging and synchronization rules apply.

DP-2 Wireless Microphone Receiver. The DP-2 Wireless Microphone Receiver (see Figure 52), permanently mounted in the vehicle, is used to dock the transmitter for in-vehicle charging and has no user-operable controls.

DP-2 Wireless Microphone Home Charger (not shown). The DP-2 Wireless Microphone Home Charger, which looks like the DP-2 Wireless Microphone Receiver, is typically kept at the office or an officer’s residence and is used to recharge the transmitter’s battery.

4.6.4 DP-2 Wireless Microphone Signal Loss Behavior

The DP-2 Wireless Microphone Transmitter has a 1,000-feet (300m) line-of-sight range. In practice this means that if the transmitter and the vehicle in which the receiver is mounted are within 1,000 feet (300m) of each other, with no large obstructions in between, there will be no signal interruptions. If for some reason these conditions are not fulfilled (for example, when an officer wearing a transmitter enters a building) and the signal is lost, the behavior of the two DP-2 Wireless Microphone models is slightly different.

In testing, the car-to-inside-building range for the 2.4 GHz mic was found to be around 400 feet. This range will vary, depending upon conditions.

900MHz DP-2 Wireless Microphone. If the signal is lost, the Sync/Signal indicator lamps on both the transmitter and receiver (Figure 51C and Figure 52D) are not illuminated. This indicates a lost signal. The microphone audio recording stops in this case. Video recording continues unaffected by the loss of audio.

When the transmitter and receiver are again within operational distances, the signal is automatically re-established and the Sync/Signal indicator lamps light up.

2.4GHz DP-2 Wireless Microphone. If the signal is lost, the Sync/Signal indicator lamps on both the transmitter and receiver (Figure 51C and Figure 52D) flash. Recording from the microphone stops. Video recording continues unaffected by the loss of audio.

When the transmitter loses signal, it will make several tries to reconnect. If the connection is not re-established, the transmitter shuts down and the Sync/Signal light stops blinking. To reactivate once in range of the receiver, press the Talk button (Figure 51B) on the transmitter. When the signal is re-established, the Sync/Signal indicator lamps light up.

If the transmitter comes back into range again before shutting down, the transmitter automatically re-establishes the signal and the Sync/Signal indicator lamps light up.

When the external microphone is in use, the transmitter’s internal microphone is bypassed.

4.6.5 External Microphone

An external microphone is provided for situations where the transmitter’s microphone pickup (see Figure 51H) cannot be positioned to face the source of the audio to be recorded. The external microphone (an included accessory) can be connected to the transmitter at any time (see Figure 51F).

Page 88 of 252

If an optional rear cabin microphone is present, it will occasionally create feedback with the MDT. When this happens, turn down the volume on the MDT.

4.7 In-Vehicle Microphone

The in-vehicle microphone comes standard with each DP-2 MDVR. The customer has the option to install or not install the in-vehicle microphone. If the standard DP-2 Wireless Microphone and the in-vehicle microphone are both installed and operating, their audio signals are recorded on separate (discrete) audio channels.

Configuration settings made by the system administrator affect the operation of the In-Vehicle microphone (see Figure 21S).

4.8 GPS Receiver and GPS Forwarding

The DP-2 In-Vehicle system includes a GPS receiver. This captures GPS readings as part of the metadata files that complement the video and audio recordings stored in the MDVR.

If the optional GPS forwarding function is enabled via the DP-2 Configuration Tool (see 7.3.2.12), the MDVR provides data from the internal MDVR GPS receiver to an external third-party device. The function currently supports two interfaces:

NMEA GPS protocol. This protocol communicates through the serial RS232 or RS485 interface. Serial setup of the receiving device must be 4800 baud, 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit (4800, 8N1). Every second, one of each of the following NMEA messages are sent: ZDA, GGA, RMC, VTG.

Trimble (TAIP) GPS protocol. This protocol broadcasts messages to a TCP/IP socket on one of the MDVR NICs. Every second, 4 messages are sent in the TAIP ‘RPV’ format. One of these will be complete, the 3 others will have one or more of speed, position, heading or time set to zero.

4.9 Event marking button

If an optional event marking button p/n 600-049 is connected to the multi-I/O cable, the MDVR automatically creates a bookmark in the footage each time the button is pressed. This allows critical moments of an incident to be marked for later review. See 7.3.2.4 and 7.3.2.8 for the configuration of the event marker button input.

Events can be marked during playback in the car

4.10 DP-2 MDT Software Installation in Vehicle

The DP-2 MDVR unit is shipped with an initial software version loaded. This version allows testing of the major functionality. Once successfully connected to the server for data transfer, this software version can be updated to a fully functional version. To configure this software to allow communication with the server, the DP-2 Configuration Tool is used.

The Mobile Data Terminal software can be used to control the MDVR. The MDT Downloader application is installed in-vehicle to download and run the latest version of the MDT software present on the MDVR.

This section describes the installation of the DP-2 Configuration Tool on a technician’s PSU laptop (see 4.10.2), and also the setup of the in-vehicle Mobile Data Terminal

5 Data Transfer System

Data can be quickly transferred from the DigitalPatroller DP-2 MDVR to a computerized storage database — the DigitalPatroller DP-2 Servers. DigitalPatroller DP-2 supports transmission over two types of networks:

Wireless network(s) (see 5.1).

Wired networks – direct connection to vehicle (see 5.2).

Wired networks – via removable storage blade docking (see 5.2).

While upload is in progress, the system continues to record and can be used as normal. Live video will not be shown on the MDT during offload.

Should an established transmission be dropped for any reason, the system detects it and immediately attempts to re-establish the connection.

After a number of failed attempts to transmit, the system automatically stops transmission, and the “Transmission Error” alert sounds.

Further information on appropriate network configuration can be found in Appendix K (see 8.13).

5.1 Wireless Transmission

The system administrator can configure the system to connect to either/both wired or/and wireless network (0). Data transfer can be set to start automatically or manually (in which case the TX button (Figure 21B) is used for initiating upload to the DP-2 server.

5.2 Wired Networks

The Wired Data Transfer System consists of the following components:

Data Transfer Docking Station. The docking station, which is either wall or pole mounted, provides weather-resistant housing for the cables and connectors used for data transfer.

Data Transfer Connector Cable(s). Each docking station will have one or more data-transfer connector cables attached.

Data Transfer Trunk Connector. The data transfer trunk connector is typically located behind the passenger-side tail light housing.

Figure 60 - DigitalPatroller Data Transfer Docking Station

Wall mounted with blue Data Transfer Connector cables

Page 95 of 252

Figure 61 - Data Transfer Trunk Connector (with protective flap closed)

Data from the DigitalPatroller DP-2 MDVR in the vehicle is automatically transferred to the DPView system without any operator intervention (only if configured for automatic transfer). Wired data transfer could be performed by:

Directly connecting a vehicle to a docking station;

OR

Removing the DP-2 Removable Storage Blade from a vehicle and connecting the Storage Blade to a Desktop Docking PC. This method is known as USB docking and enables the transfer of videos from the blades to the server. Progress of the transfer process is indicated by OFFLOAD and FORMAT status indicators.

Warning: The DP-2 Removable Storage Blade is a shock-sensitive device. When the Removable Storage Blade is removed from the recorder, it can be damaged if mistreated. The DP-2 Removable Storage Blade must be properly transported i.e. protected from electrical shocks, dust and humidity.

Please be advised that if a DP-2 Removable Storage Blade is sent for repair, the video data it contains may be lost.

Page 96 of 252

5.3 Garage Server Monitor

The Garage Server Monitor is automatically installed on each docking server.

5.3.1 Offloading Video

Click the desktop shortcut to launch the application.

Figure 62 - Docking Server Monitor

The Garage Server Monitor shows the status and progress for each recent docking event. The Garage Server Monitor also displays diagnostic log messages.

5.4 Moving Video Files by Wire from the Vehicle to the Docking Server

To transfer data recordings from the DP-2 MDVR to server storage, park the vehicle near a data-transfer Docking Station (see Figure 60). Docking stations are usually located at a station or headquarters facility. The docking station houses one or more data-transfer connector cables.

Conect to the docking server by attaching one of the docking server cables to a connector on the vehicle. After you make the connection, the system recognizes the vehicle and starts importing video files from the MDVR.

If the system is set for automatic transfer, the MDVR automatically transfers the files to the DP-2 server without the need for any operator intervention. If the system is configured for manual transfer, you must first press the TX button to begin the transfer.

When using the described wired connection, the DigitalPatroller system transfers files at a rate of approximately 3 to 7 minutes for each hour of recorded data. Wireless transfers usually take a longer time to complete.

Page 97 of 252

During the transfer process, the system provides status messages on the progress of the transfer in visual and audible form. The whole process can be monitored using the DP-1 or DP-2 LCD monitor in the vehicle.

If the vehicle’s engine was turned off during the transfer process, the system does not enter its normal shutdown sequence (after the standard 30 seconds delay) until the transfer is complete.

5.5 Unsuccessful Data Transfer

In a situation where the data transfer process does not proceed normally, the DigitalPatroller DP-2 is designed to handle an interrupted transfer.

This may happen if an emergency call comes in for a unit in the process of transferring data, or if a component of the system for some reason fails.

For details on troubleshooting data transfer refer to the DP-2 Troubleshooter (P/N 7068797).

6 DP-2 Server and DPView Installation

DPView is the digital video management software. DPView supports a client-server architecture. The DP-2 Mobile Digital Video Recorder (MDVR) docks with the DP-2 server to upload video and metadata. The DP-2 MDVR client connects to the server in order to view the incident data and associated video.

Figure 63 - DigitalPatroller DP-2 System

DPView clients connect to the server via TCP/IP for database connections and HTTP to access the video files. It is recommended that both the DPView clients and DP-2 servers be on the same Active Directory network or workgroup.

Page 99 of 252

6.1 Back Office System Requirements

DPView client machines: Minimum specifications for these are listed in Table 20. DP-2 servers: Consist of DP-2 Main Server, DP-2 Docking Server, and Database Server. In this case "server" does not necessarily mean a separate machine.

6.3 Installation Prerequisites

There are certain services that need to be installed and configured before the DP-2 software can be installed on the site. These are described in Appendix I (see section 8.11) and include:

IIS setup including FTP and SMTP service setup

SQL Server requirements

Manual configuration of SQL if not using provided SQL Server 2005 Express package

Firewall setup.

Authentication – all DP-2 servers and DPView clients, including streaming clients, must be on the same domain, and the administrator account and password used to install must be common to all servers, to allow authentication to take place.

.NET 2.0 Framework – is also required on all servers, client and MDT machines. It is a pre-requisite that is automatically installed by the setup program if it does not already exist in the machine being set up and configured.

Following the one-off installation of pre-requisite software services, the installation of DP-2 software can commence. Administrator or power-user privileges are generally required to install software.

The DP-2 software installation at a particular site includes installation of the DP-2 servers (see 6.3.3), and installation of the DPView software on client machines (see section 6.5.1).

For troubleshooting installation problems, see the DP-2 Troubleshooter’s Guide (7068797).

6.3.1 DP-2 System IP Addresses

The DP-2 System software is deployed at a number of points throughout the digital video management system. It is the role of the network administrator to determine an appropriate IP address plan.

6.3.2 Installation of DP-2 Servers

According to the site configuration (refer to sections 6.1 and 6.3.1), a single DP-2 Main Server and Docking server, or separate DP-2 Main and one or more DP-2 Docking Servers are required. This section describes the installation of these components.

Page 105 of 252

6.3.3 Remote Connectivity for Support

Where possible, the system administrator should set up VPN and Remote Desktop access for Integrian technical support.

The VPN only needs to be active when technical support is investigating an issue.

6.3.4 Setup of Server Paths

There are two main sets of paths that need to be entered by the operator during the setup of the DP-2 system:

Video storage paths

DVR software update paths.

In addition to these paths, there are other paths that are important and must be set up for the software to function correctly.

Figure 64 - DP-2 System Setup

In both cases, specific paths have to be entered for the DP-2 main server and docking server. The system administrator must decide where on each system this application data can reside. Even if the DP-2 main and docking server applications are installed on the same machine, different main and docking server paths must be specified.

6.3.5 Video Storage Paths

While the vehicle is running, video is stored by the DP-2 MDVR on its Removable Storage Blade. This is offloaded through Ethernet, wireless or through a USB cable to the docking server. The docking server temporarily stores this video until the main server is ready to archive it in the permanent store. In the event the link between these servers is down, or the main server is unusually busy, the video will remain in this temporary store on the docking server. Typically D:\FileWriterRoot is used.

The video storage used by the main server can be directly attached storage or a network storage device. One or multiple locations can be used to store this video for the months or years before it is ready to be removed from the system. Typical locations may be E:\Video

Page 106 of 252

Archiver, F:\Video Archiver. The installer has the option of filling these evenly (always use the location with the most free space), or filling the first location to capacity before using next location.

If network-attached storage devices are used, the user running the installation must have full control of the storage locations on these drives.

This also applies to local, SAN and other storage types.

6.3.6 DP-2 MDVR Software Update Paths

The latest version of the DVR software is included in the main server installation, and can be selected from the administration portal to update DP-2 MDVRs when they dock. The installer specifies where these updates are kept on the main server (typically D:\FileWriterRoot\MainServer), and where they are copied to on the docking server (typically D:\FileWriterRoot\GarageServer).

6.3.7 Other Server Paths

On each server, the application is installed to the program path specified during installation, typically C:\Program Files\Integrian or D:\Program Files\Integrian. Shared components are installed to C:\Program Files\Common Files\Integrian.

During operation, logs are saved to C:\__logs. All of these locations must be writable by the user installing the software.

6.3.8 DP-2 Server Software Installation

The DP-2 server cannot be installed on a domain controller. It will not work. The preferred install is on a dedicated server.

If the install account does not have appropriate permissions, the software will not function correctly.

A full SQL database is required for any system over 10 vehicles.

The DP-2 server software installation is performed using the provided installation CD-ROM. The administrator account used to install the software requires the following permissions:

Install applications

Install Windows components (if IIS is not yet fully installed)

Create local user accounts

Run applications (DP-2 services will run under the account of the administrator installing the software)

Full control on all of the folders listed in section 6.3.4.

Page 107 of 252

To install DP-2 Main Server, Docking Server and/or Portal Server, first launch the Install Wizard and select the appropriate installation option as per Procedure 36. Select Main Server and Portal Server and possibly Docking Server as required.

If installing additional components or configuring settings for installed components, follow Procedure 36 for configuration of these components.

If installing additional components or upgrading components, move onto Procedure 37 for installation of these components. Removal of components is essentially the same as the installation phase.

This section explains:

How to install DP-2 on a client machine.

How to Install the DPView viewer application.

How to use the Desktop Docking PC module for transferring video from a removable storage blade using a USB conection.

In-car laptops must be installed with the MDT Downloader (see section 4.10.3)

6.5.1 DPView Installation

Each officer requiring access to video for review purposes needs the DPView client on their desktop PC or on a shared PC.

The Administrator uses the DPView client software to configure vehicles and users, and review proper functioning of the system.

DPView is designed to be installed on machines running Windows XP. Installation on machines with Windows 2003 is not recommended.

In order to install the application, the administrator or user requires full control on the installation folder (typically C:\Program Files\Integrian), and the right to install applications on the machine.

The user running the DPView application requires full control of the C:\__logs and C:\IntegrianVideo folders, as well as their temporary directory (typically C:\Documents and Settings\User\Local Settings\Temp).

DPView installation is described in Procedure 41. IP addresses refer to the example IP address plan in Figure 65 and suggested directories are given in Table 31.

Page 123 of 252

Procedure 41 - DPView Installation

1. Insert the DP-2 Installation CD. The installation wizard starts and shows the Integrian logo. (If it does not automatically start, run setup.cmd from installation CD.) The wizard takes you through the installation step-by-step.

Figure 81 - DPView Client Selection

2. Database Connection

During the configuration and installation process, you are prompted to input the database connection properties.

Figure 82 - DPView Client Database Connection Dialog

For the SQL server field, if the DPView Client is not being installed on the main server, be certain to enter the database server’s IP address or server name (instead of localhost) followed by \SQLEXPRESS, e.g. 191.171.10.1\SQLEXPRESS (if SQL EXPRESS 2005 was installed).

3. Use the default password, unless configured otherwise in the SQL server installation.

Page 124 of 252

The installation will not progress until a valid connection is confirmed.

4. Only modify this field if a different IP address is used.

If it is required for other users to use this feature, the DVD Authoring Permissions Patch must be installed. This patch and instructions can be found in the DVD burning patch folder of the installation CD-ROM.

6.5.2 Desktop Docking PC Installation

This installation enables you to set up a Desktop Docking PC for upload of footage from a DP-2 Removable Storage Blade and run recordings from it.

Procedure 42 - Desktop Docking PC Installation

1. Install the Desktop Docking PC in a convenient location near or in the patrol car garage.

2. Attach the standard USB docking cable to a USB port on this PC.

3. Run DP-2 MDVR installer (Dp2SetupXXXX.exe) from the DP2 folder on the software CD-ROM on the Desktop Docking PC. The values entered here are not important.

4. Start the Desktop Docking PC program (GarageServerDriveWatcher.exe) through a startup shortcut or equivalent.

Page 126 of 252

5.

On the first upload, Windows may ask what action to perform on the drive.

Specify that Windows should always perform NO ACTION in this case (the application takes the required action).

6. Once the Desktop Docking PC is installed and vehicles are setup, test by plugging a DP-2 caddy with recorded video into the docking cable.

If you decide to deploy desktop docking as your system for transferring video, you can also use the docking server to pass system upgrades to the DVR. See your Integrian Field Engineer for details.

7 DP-2 System Administration

Once all server pre-requisites have been installed and the server software has been installed, the system is configured through the administration functions of the DP-2 Portal and DPView.

This chapter describes the administration and remote control functions available to the Administrator. Only the Administrator can select and change user access levels.

No vehicles or DP-2 MDVRs are pre-configured in the system. Before DP-2 MDVR units interact with the server for video upload and for software update, they need to be configured in the system by the Administrator. This is done in DPView.

7.1 Select DP-2 MDVR Software Version

The server installer is bundled with the latest DP-2 MDVR software version and firmware (as appropriate). The version should be selected for all of the DP-2 MDVR units configured, in order to force automatic updating of the DP-2 MDVR when it next docks with the docking server.

The MDVR software can be automatically updated from the server as part of the docking procedure. Individual MDVRs can be upgraded or entire MDVR groups (see Table 32). Both upgrade and downgrade are possible

Procedure 43 - Select DP-2 MDVR Software Version

1. Click Admin to enter the software update function of the administration web portal.

2. Update the version selection in the Software column for every individual DP-2 MDVR being used. For each DP-2 MDVR, select the highest version available.

7.3 DP-2 MDVR Configuration Tool

The DP-2 MDVR Configuration Tool is available in two forms: a standalone QuickConfig application, and the same application integrated into the DVR Config function in the Administration tab of DPView (see 7.4.2).

Initial DP-2 MDVR configuration is carried out in a vehicle with the standalone QuickConfig application – see 4.10.2 for installation and launch instructions. This is required to configure units uniquely (i.e. with different vehicle IDs), and to enable docking for a specific site (i.e. server addresses).

The first time the unit docks to the server, this initial configuration is saved to the server. From this point on, DPView DVR Config must be used to configure DP-2 MDVRs in the server database, with configuration changes pushed down to DP-2 MDVRs during docking. Changes made directly on the DP-2 MDVR will be overwritten during the next docking.

7.3.1 Loading DP-2 MDVR Configuration Using Quick Config

Access the configuration utility as described in section 7.2.4. There are three menu options to load the configuration:

Local – from a file on the local computer

DVR – from a DVR connected to a computer

Database – from the server database (available in DPView only).

7.3.1.1 Local Configuration from Local File

This option allows the user to load a previously saved configuration file from the local computer. This can be used for example to load standard settings onto a new unit.

Step 4 is required even if only Desktop Docking is used on the site.

4. Set DockingServerAddress to the address of the docking servers on this site. If the Garage Messaging Channel Port was modified in Figure 75, modify it here accordingly.

If MDVRs are expected to dock in multiple garages, all docking servers on the site must have the same IP address as seen by the MDVR.

5. Set DockingServerPort to 4003.

6. Set ftpHost to the docking server IP address. See also Table 25 - DP-2 Docking Server Requirements

7. Set ftpUser to the whatever user name the car will use to access the server see also Procedure 94.

8. Set ftpPass to the whatever password the car will use to access the server

9. Set MdtOfficerLoginMode and Dp1OfficerLogin according to type of display connected (Mobile Data Terminal laptop or ‘DP1’ or ‘DP2’ LCD Monitor) and officer identification requirements for the site:

Off: disables the requirement for officer login for this display device. In this case, no metadata that identifies the officer on duty will be associated with the video file.

Optional: allows the officer to enter a login on this display, but does not prevent usage of the display without a login. In this case, metadata that identifies the officer on duty will be associated with the video file only if the officer decides to logon.

Mandatory: requires the user to login with an identification number or a badge number.

The purpose of the officer login feature is to associate the officer on duty with the video. The login does not prevent unauthorized use of the LCD or the MDT.

10. Set PowerDownDelaySec to be the minimum number of seconds before the MDVR should completely shut down after ignition off. Consider that the unit will draw power from vehicle battery during this period.

11. Select the PostShutDownRecordMode:

Off: when ignition is turned off, the unit shuts down after PowerDownDelaySec seconds, even if recording is in progress.

Limited: when ignition is turned off but unit is recording, unit shuts down after both PostShutDownRecordMins minutes and PowerDownDelaySec seconds have expired (whichever is greater), or recording is stopped.

Unlimited: when ignition is turned off but unit is recording, unit will not shut down until recording is stopped or the vehicle battery is exhausted.

12. Set AvlServerAddress to be the internet-facing network address of the DP-2 Main Server. If the port number has been changed, as seen in Figure 73 - DP-2 Main Server Configuration Settings, it must also be changed in AvlServerPort, here.

Page 140 of 252

13. Click the Localization settings item in the settings tree.

SpeedUnits: set the units (KPH or MPH) used to display speed on the DP-1 or DP-2 LCD Monitor display. (Note: MDT uses the regional settings of the computer it is running on, set through the Control Panel.)

14. Click the Operation settings item in the settings tree to display the setting options (see Figure 99).

If False (default value), event tagging can be performed normally through MDT or DP-1 or DP-2 LCD Monitor, and will be recorded with the event (see DP-2 In-Vehicle User Manual).

If set to True, tagging can still be performed on the monitor, but is ignored by the system. If set to True, tagging is inhibited on MDT.

RequireEventClassification:

If True, the system automatically displays the event classification window on the MDT at the end of an event.

If False, the event can be classified at any time.

DisableStopButton:

If False (default value), the officer can turn off the recording at any time.

If set to True, pusing the Stop button is ignored by the system.

7.3.2.2 Edit Daylight Saving Settings

Familiarity with the Daylight Saving Time (DST) and time zone settings for the US, Canada, UK and Australia is required. For details see Appendix (J) section 8.12.

Procedure 53 - DP-2 MDVR Daylight Savings Configuration

1. Use the daylight saving settings page to set standard Daylight Saving Time adjustments, as well as special cases to override the default adjustments.

The Daylight Saving Tab’s primary purpose is for displaying the correct current time on the DP-1 or DP-2 LCD Monitor, and for recording local time offset in recorded video files. Note: MDT uses the laptop local time for the time display.

Figure 100 - DP-2 Configuration – Daylight Savings Time

The Daylight Saving Tab of the DP-2 Configuration Tool has the following settings:

Enabled: if set to false, no changes are made for daylight saving time. If true, the subsequent settings are used to make adjustments to the time for daylight saving.

StartMonth: the month in which daylight saving begins (1 = Jan, 2 = Feb, …)

StartWeek: the week of the month in which daylight saving begins (1 = first week, 2 = second week, … 4 = fourth week)

StartDayOfWeek: the day of the week on which daylight saving begins (1 = Sun, 2 = Mon, …)

StartHour: the hour of the day in which daylight saving begins (1 = 1:00am, 2 = 2:00am, … 13 = 1:00pm, …)

Offset: the number of hours by which daylight saving affects the time (virtually always set to 1)

Page 142 of 252

1 (cont.)

EndMonth: the month in which daylight saving ends (1 = Jan, 2 = Feb, …)

EndWeek: the week of the month in which daylight saving ends (1 = first week, 2 = second week, … 4 = fourth week)

StartDayOfWeek: the day of the week on which daylight saving ends (1 = Sun, 2 = Mon, …)

StartHour: the hour of the day in which daylight saving ends (1 = 1:00am, 2 = 2:00am, … 13 = 1:00pm, …)

All times are specified according to local time (i.e. the end time is specified as the time according to daylight saving time.

Example 1:

Daylight saving begins on the second Sunday in March at 2:00 am.

Daylight saving ends on the first Sunday in November at 2:00 am.

7.3.2.3 Edit Network Adaptor Settings for the Vehicle and the Docking LAN

Procedure 54 - DP-2 MDVR Network Adaptor Configuration

1. Browse to the InCarLAN section. The settings in Figure 103 are widely used to configure the in-vehicle LAN. The InCarLAN should be set to contain the DVR’s IP address that goes to the MDT (on the 100Mb link). This IP address is almost always 192.168.1.1 which is the default address. No subnet mask or gateway are required because this should be a direct connection between the MDT and the DVR in the car.

Figure 103 - DP-2 Configuration – InCarLAN Settings

To prevent docking until the officer presses the Tx button on the LCD monitor, set AutomaticDocking to False.

To automatically initiate docking as soon as the car makes a connection with the docking server, set AutomaticDocking to True.

Page 144 of 252

Procedure 55 - DP-2 Docking LAN Network Adaptor Configuration

2. Browse to the DockingLAN. This configures the connection to the docking LAN server. You can set the system up for manual or automatic, wired or wireless data transfer. Adapter: Select the Gigabit Ethernet connection, which is the

adapter card used for the link between the car and the garage server. The other adapters are for the in-vehicle LAN.

DHCP – False DHCP is always set to false. IP Address This is the IP address of the car. The system

administrator for the site determines the IP address and numbering scheme. Usually this is done by modifying the last two digits of the IP address to create the unique car ID. In the example shown here the IP address is 10.10.10.14. The car ID in this case would be 14.

Subnet Mask This is usually 255.255.255.0 but some sites configure their networks differently. The system administrator for the site determines what is actually used.

Gateway 10.10.10.1 Automatic Docking Set to “True” when you want wired or wireless docking to start

as soon as a connection is established. Set to “False” when you want to initiate docking by pressing

the TX button on the LCD monitor.

7.3.2.4 How to Set up New Cameras and Microphones

For software release version 4.5.6 and higher, Integrian supports up to three cameras and three microphones. This section explains how to change the settings for new camera and microphone setups.

When you use more than two cameras, there are system limitations:

Resolution: There are two onboard video cards and they can each support a total resolution of D1. For a three-camera setup, If you want to capture front camera video in D1, the highest resolution, then the second video card can only support (at most) ½ D1 for each of the remaining two cameras.

Recording time: Additional cameras and microphones also reduce your recording time.

Recording for long periods requires that you disable wireless microphone three and camera three (Channel3VideoActive = false and Channel3AudioActive = false).

7.3.2.5 Editing Audio Visual Stream Settings for Installing Cameras and Microphones

This is a general procedure to familiarize you with the fields that you will edit when you add or subtract cameras and microphones.

Page 146 of 252

Procedure 56 – Adding New Cameras and Microphones

1. Browse to the AudioVisualStreams section as shown here.

Figure 105 - DP-2 Configuration – Audio/Visual Streams - two microphones active

These fields are not currently active.

NightView

Mute

VideoBackLight

2.

Enable or disable the three video channels through the Channel1VideoActive, Channel2VideoActive and Channel3VideoActive settings. If no camera is connected on one of the channels, the channel should be disabled to avoid recording blank footage.

3. Audio can only be recorded on channels with active video. For any active video channel, audio recording on the channel can be enabled and disabled with the Channel1AudioActive, Channel2AudioActive and Channel3AudioActive settings.

Page 147 of 252

4. Set Channel1VideoQuality and Channel2VideoQuality to determine the quality and size of recorded footage for each camera. The available video qualities are: 2000, 1400, 900, 450, 300. These values are in approximate Mb/hr file size for D1 video. If lower video resolutions are used, files will be correspondingly smaller.

5. Edit PreRecordTime and PostRecordTime. These settings indicate the time to record video (no audio) before and after an event, in seconds. Do not exceed 5 minutes (300 seconds) in total for these two parameters.

For example, setting PreRecordTime to 30 will save the video from the continuous record buffer of the MDVR for a further 30 seconds before recording is triggered.

6.

The LiveAudioSelection selects which microphone is initially played by the DP-2 MDVR on the LCD Monitor during recording. Typically LiveAudioSelection should be set to 1 – refer to Table 39 for channel numbering.

7. Use the Card1VideoFormat and Card2VideoFormat settings to determine the video modes for the first (front of vehicle), second and third cameras. The following modes are available for each card:

NTSC 1 D1 30 : NTSC format, D1 (720 x 480) size, 30 fps frame rate, 1 input (default setting for forward camera).

NTSC 1 D1 7.5 : NTSC format, D1 (720 x 480) size, 7.5 fps, 1 input.

NTSC 4 SIF 30 : NTSC format, SIF (320 x 248) size, 30 fps, 4 inputs (default setting for second camera).

NTSC 4 D1 7.5 NTSC format, D1 (320 x 248) size, 7.5 fps frame rate, 1 input.

For details see Table 52 in section 8.1 Appendix A.

Table 39 gives the audio channel numbering and their multi-audio cable or DP-2 MDVR rear connector inputs. Each audio input is available on two channels.

Table 40 gives the video channel numbering and their DP-2 MDVR rear-connector inputs. The ‘second’ inputs to the secondary video-only inputs on each connector: refer to Appendix E, Table 66 for details.

7.3.2.6 Edit Audio Visual Suppression Settings

The DP-2 MDVR allows patrol officers to independently enable and disable audio and video channels through the LCD Monitor or MDT, if permitted by the system administrator. The AudioVisialSuppression settings determine which audio or video channels can be suppressed by the patrol officers. The initial state (suppressed or active) of each channel is also configured here.

A suppressed audio channel is replaced with silence while suppressed. A suppressed video channel is replaced with a message indicating that the operator has manually suppressed the channel. The patrol officer will suppress a channel either because it is not relevant at that time (e.g. while no passenger in back seat), or to save storage space. While suppressed, a channel occupies very little storage space.

These settings only affect those channels enabled in Table 52 - DP-2 MDVR Maximum Frame Rate per Video Input. To disable a channel entirely, disable it in the AudioVisualStreams page.

Procedure 57 - DP-2 Channel Suppression Settings

1. Open the AudioVideoSuppression page, as shown in Figure 106.

Figure 106 - DP-2 Configuration – Audio/Video Suppression Settings

Page 151 of 252

2. For each channel, setting AllowSuppression to True allows the user to suppress the channel. Setting StartupSuppression to True suppresses the channel as soon as the DP-2 MDVR starts. Setting StartupSuppression to False leaves the channel enabled at startup.

Table 43 - Example: Settings to Suppress the Prisoner Camera (camera 2)

This example shows you how to set the video suppression settings for a second camera. In this example, the prisoner camera is off until the officer turns it on. Camera 1 is always on.

Audio/VideoSuppression Fields Audio/VideoSuppression Settings AllowVideoSuppressionchannel1: False

StartupVideoSuppressionchannel1: False

AllowAudioSuppressionchannel1: False

StartupAudioSuppressionchannel1: False

AllowAudioSuppressionchannel2: False

StartupAudioSuppressionchannel2: False

AllowVideoSuppressionchannel3: False

StartupVideoSuppressionchannel3: False

AllowAudioSuppressionchannel3: False

StartupAudioSuppressionchannel3: False

With this setting enabled, the officer will see camera 2 listed on the LCD, but it will be surrounded by a red box, indicating that the camera is inactive. To activate the camera select camera 2 and hold the select button down for a few seconds. The red box will turn green, indicating that the camera is ready, but not recording. Press the record button to initiate recording.

You can also enable or disable a second microphone the same way by setting the AllowAudioSuppressionchannel2: and StartupAudioSuppressionchannel2: to true

7.3.2.7 Edit Digital Input Settings

The digital inputs are configured through the GPIO and Active Polarity pages. See also the event triggers configuration in 7.3.2.8.

Page 152 of 252

Procedure 58 - DP-2 MDVR Digital Input Configuration

1. Open the GPIO page as shown in Figure 107.

Figure 107 - DP-2 Configuration – Digital Input Assignments

The Input and Output entries must not be modified.

2. For each of the digital inputs (ignition, light bar etc.), a bit number is shown (see Figure 107). Edit the bit assignments to correspond to the physical wiring of the digital inputs to the MDVR digital IO cable (see MDVR connector X10 in Table 68). The mapping of physical pins to the bit numbers shown in the DP-2 Configuration Tool is detailed in Table 44.

If the optional in-vehicle marker button is installed, a bookmark is automatically created in the video file each time the button is pressed.

Page 153 of 252

Inputs bits can only be changed in limited ranges (see Table 44).

3. Open the ActivePolarity page shown in Figure 108.

Figure 108 - DP-2 Configuration – Digital Input Polarities

For each of the digital inputs, the active polarity is shown.

Speed and Radar are not used. IgnitionStatus polarity should not be changed.

4. Set active polarity for each digital input to True for active high (input active on +12VDC, inactive on 0VDC) or to False for active low (input active on 0VDC, inactive on +12VDC). See the Note below Table 44.

If the optional in-vehicle event marker button is installed, a bookmark is automatically created in the video file each time the button is pressed.

Ignition must not be changed. Other X10 inputs (brakes, lightbar, etc.) must be set in the range of 1 to 11 inclusive. The X13 inputs must be set to 12 or 13. The digital outputs 1 and 2 are not currently used.

Any signal connected to the marker button input will create bookmarks when active.

Digital inputs need to respect the following constraints:

- Signals must last at least 50ms (including debouncing time) - Low signals must be in the 0VDC to 1VDC range - High signals must be in the 9VDC to 24VDC range.

7.3.2.8 Edit Event Triggers Configuration

Event triggers can be used to trigger recording or license capture when certain conditions are met. The configuration of these is described here.

Procedure 59 - DP-2 MDVR Event Trigger Configuration

1. Open the EventTriggers page, as shown in Figure 109.

For each of the digital inputs, a trigger activation item and a State item are shown. Some additional trigger rules are also configurable.

The State items are not used.

Page 155 of 252

2. Configure all simple input triggers: WirelessMic1, WirelessMic2, Crash, Airbag, Lightbar, Siren, Door, Brakes, Speed, Radar and EventMarking. These correspond to individual digital inputs (see Table 44).

Set an input trigger to True to trigger recording when the input becomes active (see ActivePolarities settings in section 7.3.2.4).

3. Configure all stop triggers: StopOnLightBarOff, StopOnSirenOff, StopOnDoorOff, StopOnBrakesOff, StopOnCrashOff, StopOnDriverAirbagOff, StopOnSpeedOff, StopOnRadarOff, StopOnWirelessMic1Off, StopOnWirelessMic2Off and StopOnEventMarkingOff. If True, recording stops when specified trigger is turned off. If False, recording continues until the officer presses the Stop button on the DP-1 or DP-2 LCD Monitor or MDT.

RadarTarget: if True, recording is triggered if target vehicle speed measured by radar exceeds RadarTargetValue.

RadarPatrol: if True, recording is triggered if patrol vehicle speed measured by radar exceeds RadarPatrolValue.

GpsSpeed: if True, recording is triggered if patrol vehicle speed measured by GPS exceeds GpsSpeedValue.

DoorGps: this setting is intended to cover the situation where the patrol car speeds up to follow a vehicle (going over GpsSpeedMovingValue), turns its light bar on, slows down, to park behind the vehicle in question. If this trigger is set to True, when the officer opens the door to get out, recording is automatically triggered (if not already recording) and a license capture is automatically performed.

Additional conditions needed to trigger License Zoom besides setting DoorGps to true:

1. Door open

2. Light Bar on

3. Vehicle not moving and vehicle has moved

All radar triggers require a radar or laser speed measurement device to be connected and configured (see Table 2). GPS triggers require the GPS antenna to be connected, and will only operate when sufficient GPS satellites are ‘visible’ overhead to provide an adequate GPS signal. GPS speed is always approximate.

If a crash sensor is wired, recording is only guaranteed if battery power remains available.

All speed settings for RadarTargetValue, RadarPatrolValue, GpsSpeedValue, GpsSpeedMovingValue use the units defined by the SpeedUnits setting in Procedure 52.

Figure 109 - DP-2 Configuration – Event Triggers

7.3.2.9 Edit Event Trigger Messages Configuration

Event trigger messages are the messages displayed on the DP-1 or DP-2 LCD monitor/MDT when the relevant inputs are turned on/off. The configuration of these is described below.

Procedure 60 - DP-2 MDVR Event Trigger Messages Configuration

1. Open the EventTriggerMesssages page, as shown in Figure 110 and edit the messages as required. These messages are shown on DP-1 or DP-2 LCD Monitor and MDT only.

Page 157 of 252

Figure 110 - DP-2 Configuration – Event Trigger Messages

The names shown on other DP-2 Configuration Tool pages assume the default assignment of pins to inputs shown in Table 44.

Changing the names shown here will not change the display or naming of these items in DPView.

Page 158 of 252

7.3.2.10 Edit License Capture Configuration

The DP-2 MDVR supports the capture of license plates. Configuration of the license plate zoom distance and pause time is described below.

Procedure 61 - DP-2 MDVR License Capture Configuration

1. Open the LicenseCapture page, as shown in Figure 111.

Figure 111 - DP-2 Configuration – License Capture

2. Enter the values as required.

The time values are in number of milliseconds.

The ZoomIn and ZoomOut times are the maximum time the camera can take to zoom.

The PauseTime is the length of time the camera will pause at the pre-configured license plate zoom distance.

7.3.2.11 Edit Radar Configuration

The DP-2 MDVR supports a number of standard police speed measurement devices, including speed radars and lasers. The configuration of these is described below.

Page 159 of 252

Procedure 62 - DP-2 MDVR Radar Configuration

1. Open the Radar page, as shown in Figure 112.

Figure 112 - DP-2 Configuration – Radar

2. Select the manufacturer of the speed measurement device (see Figure 112), or None if no such device is connected.

While other configurations are supported, for full system functionality, the speed measurement device must be configured to send both patrol car and target speeds to the DP-2 MDVR. Detailed instructions for certain radar types are given in the DP-2 In-Vehicle Installation Manual.

7.3.2.12 Edit GPS Forwarding

Overview

In some cases, you may want to attach your own equipment to the GPS feeds that you get from the MDVR.

It helps if the vendor who makes the equipment that receives the GPS data has multiple data input options.

Equipment will generally work that accepts plain text NMEA (National Marine Electronics Association) output strings, a GPS standard language. The NMEA 0183 standard is a simple ASCII serial communications protocol.

Page 160 of 252

In successful implementations, a null modem cable is connected from the J2 connector on the multi-serial wiring harness to the serial receiving port of the customer’s device. If the connector is correctly wired, then you may not have to do much more than make the connection and configure the devices to start communicating with the same communications protocol.

To configure the MDVR to start sending GPS data to the J2 connector (default), enable GPS forwarding in Quick Config. You will also have to configure the third party manufacturer’s device to receive the data in the correct format.

Procedure 63 - DP-2 MDVR GPS Forwarding Configuration

1. Open the GpsForward page, as shown here.

Figure 113 - DP-2 Configuration – GPS Forwarding

2. Set Enabled to True to provide data from the internal MDVR GPS receiver to an external third-party device. If False, this feature is disabled.

3. Set ForwardNoGpsFix to False to forward only GPS strings indicating a valid position and speed. If False, even GPS strings indicating an insufficient number of GPS satellites will be forwarded to the external device.

4. Select the required Protocol and related fields.

Page 161 of 252

If NMEA is selected, BroadcastLan, BroadcastPort and TargetAddress are not used, but the serial port has to be configured. Use the values in Table 45 to select the RS232 or RS485 serial connector on the multi-serial cable where the GPS data will be available

If the Trimble protocol is selected, the SerialPortTag and SerialUartChannel are not used, but the configuration selects which NIC (DockingLAN or InCarLAN) and port to use. Certain port numbers are reserved — check with your FAE before changing the port number in BroadcastPort. TargetAddress is the IP address of the machine receiving the broadcast Trimble GPS strings.

7.3.3 How to Set up and Modify Vehicle Logins

Possible scenario:

You decide to require logins and no login was previously required.

You decide to change your login mode, e.g. from five character to five character checksum.

If you decide to change your organization’s vehicle logon configuration mode, you must change settings in both DPView Quick Config and DPView Administration>Security. After you change the settings, the system pushes changes to the vehicle when the vehicle connects to the docking server.

If your organization transfers video files by physically pulling the blade from the car and plugging it in at the office, you should work with an Integrian field engineer to push login changes to each vehicle during docking.

Page 162 of 252

Procedure 64 – How to Set up a Required Login.

1. Set the Quick Config InstallationData MdtOfficerLoginMode and Dp1OfficerLoginMode to Mandatory to make login a required feature for the DP-1, DP-2 LCDs or the MDT.

Figure 114 – Quick Config Installation Data screen

2. Click Login in the Quick Config screen as shown in Figure 115. There are two fields available for edit: Characterset and Mode

Figure 115 - DP-2 Configuration – Officer Login

MDT and DP-1 modes set to mandatory

Page 163 of 252

3. Use the Characterset field to specify the characters that the system will accept during login.

In the example above, the Characterset field contains only numbers. This means that for any of the modes that you specify, the system will accept numbers but not alpha characters. An officer who tries to log on using an alpha character will have the login rejected.

4. Use the Mode field to determine the type of login authentication performed.

Figure 116 - DP-2 Configuration – Login Mode

There are three Modes:

5CharacterAndChecksum: Requires the officer to enter a 7 digit numeric ID. The first five numbers are the officer ID, The last two characters are security validation numbers given to the officer by the system administrator. This method enforces a login that contains a valid ID. As a result, your video records will always have valid IDs associated with them.

5Character: Requires an officer to enter five characters to login. The system in this case will accept any string of digits that are listed in the Characterset field. Using this mode presents a risk, because the system can accept an unknown login ID and append it to the video files for that shift. This may have legal implications if the video files are later introduced as evidence. If less than five characters are used the number will be padded to the left with zeroes.

UnspecifiedAlphNumeric: Allows an officer to enter any number of characters, as long as the characters are listed in the Characterset field. This mode also presents a risk of introducing an invalid officer ID to the video record.

A few examples of login settings are provided below.

Example 1:

Characterset: 0123456789

Mode: 5CharacterAndChecksum

Officer must enter a 7 character login for the DP-1, DP-2, or the MDT. The first 5 characters are the officer ID, which must be numeric. (if the officer ID is fewer than five numbers, the officer must add zeroes to the beginning of the ID when he or she logs into the system.) The next two characters are checksum digits.

For more about assigning checksum digits see the system administrator setup instructions.

Page 164 of 252

You must enter a numeric-only character set in the Characterset field with this mode.

Example 2:

Characterset: 0123456789

Mode: 5Character

Officer must enter 5 characters from the characters listed in Characterset: 0123456789. If all IDs are numeric in your department, then do not list any alpha characters in the Characterset field

When officers enter their 5 character IDs, any login ID that contains characters that are not listed in the Characterset field will be rejected.

Officers who have IDs with fewer than 5 characters must add zeroes to the beginning of their number.

Example 3:

Characterset: 0123456789ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ

Mode: UnspecificAlphaNumeric

Logging in will require the user to enter any sequence of digits and uppercase letters. No validation is performed (i.e. any sequence of any length is considered valid). Officer can login with any characters specified in the characterset field. As long as those characters are the ones used in their Officer ID.

7.3.4 Logins and checksums – additional DPView configuration

If you decide to use Quick Config set your login mode to 5CharacterAndChecksum, then you should also read this section to find out how to use DPView to capture the extra two checksum numbers that the system uses to validate each login ID.

If in I

sum

an officer forgets the checksum ID, you can find out what the checksum is for any logD at any time in DPView. Select

Administration>Security>User accounts><username> and click the checkbutton. (Figure 126). The checksum number will change if you change the Officer ID

This procedure explains how to get the checksum when you are adding a new user.

7.3.4.2 Edit Storage Settings

The Storage function provides the facility to manage MDVR storage. Its configuration is described below.

Procedure 66 - DP-2 MDVR Storage Configuration

1. Open the Storage page, as shown here.

Figure 119 - DP-2 Configuration – Storage Settings

2. Select the mode required and enter the appropriate values:

StorageMode: The modes affect the behavior of systems with dual-drive Removable Storage Blades. All modes are equivalent for single-drive blades. Available modes are:

FirstFound: uses first available drive. Events will be stored on the first drive except if this is not found (e.g. HDD fault). If currently used drive is full, recording will stop.

Raid0: alternates footage files between drives. All space on both drives can be used to store events.

Raid1: duplicates all footage on all drives found. In the event of failure of a drive, the footage is still available from the other drive. Only a single copy of the footage will be offloaded.

TotalRecordingHours: limits recording to this number of hours, even if more space is available. Maximum number of hours of footage storage depends on the video resolution and quality – refer to 7.3.2.4 How to Set up New Cameras and Microphones for more information.

LowSpaceWarningMB: minimum space remaining before a low space warning starts to display on the DP-1 or DP-2 LCD Monitor or MDT.

The system tracks the location of footage across drives transparently for the end user.

For more information on the video storage modes, see section 3.2.

7.3.4.3 Edit DP-2 LCD Monitor Settings

The DP2Monitor function enables and configures the use of a new generation DP-2 LCD Monitor with the DP-2 MDVR unit. The configuration options are described below.

7.4.1.4 Add/Edit User Groups

There are two types of User Groups: User Groups that can be added to fit individual needs and Reviewer Groups that are pre-defined.

The Add/Edit User Group function (Figure 128) allows you to assign users to groups and to allocate owners for any number of groups.

Its purpose is to control permissions based on the View or Edit other functions (see Table 47.

The following example shows how these permissions work in relation to ViewOtherVideo, when groups and group owners are defined.

EXAMPLE

Group 1 – Patrol Officers:

User – Patrol Officer 1 User – Patrol Officer 2 User – Patrol Officer 3 Owner – Patrol Supervisor (has permission to view all the officers’ videos in Group 1) Owner – Chief of Police (has permission to view all the officers’ videos in Groups 1 and 2)

Group 2 – Vice Squad:

User – Vice Officer 1 User – Vice Officer 2 Owner – Vice Supervisor (has permission to view all the officers’ videos in Group 2) Owner – Chief of Police (has permission to view all the officers’ videos in Groups 1 and 2)

See Procedure 74 on how to add and edit user groups.

The pre-defined Reviewer User Groups are directly correlated to the Classification List Details. To add a new Reviewer User Group, first add the classification list detail and then the Reviewer User Group.

7.4.6 Incident Classification Types

The Classification Types option allows an Administrator to edit the type of classification applicable to incidents. The customization made here determines what users see via the DPView Search Screen (refer to the DP-2 DPView User Manual P/N 7068207), and in-vehicle on the MDT and DP-2 LCD Monitor (refer to the DP-2 In-Vehicle User Manual P/N 7067294).

All data associated with the current label will be updated with the new label. If existing video has been tagged according to these labels, the labels should be edited to have similar names, e.g. changing Ticket Number to Infraction Number.

Field displays vary depending on the group(s) of data for a classification type which include:

Incident Classification Details

Editor Type Details

List Details.

7.4.8 Using DP-1 Files on a DP-2 Server

With version 4.5.7 and above, you can import DP-1 files into a DP-2 server, where they are converted and used as DP-2 files. Note: Some limitations apply.

This section describes how to import DP-1 files into a DP-2 system.

The process of importing and using DP-1 files on a DP-2 system is called ingestion.

Table 49 - Requirements for ingesting DP-1 files into a DP-2 Server

DP-2 Software Version

4.5.7 or higher

Docking Server Must have at least 100GB of storage plus 3GB of additional storage for each anticipated hour of video.

Naming conventions for vehicles

Car ID must not contain any upper case alphabetic characters.

The easiest way to set up your DP-2 system up to ingest DP-1 files is to follow the prompts when you upgrade to version 4.5.7 or higher.

During the installation process, the Install Wizard asks you if you want to create a new DP-1 folder. Create the folder and follow the prompts to complete the upgrade process. After the upgrade is complete, the new DP-1 folder should appear on the docking server:

C:\Images\DP-1

After you finish the upgrade, the DP-2 system will look in the DP-1 folder for DP-1 files every few minutes. When it finds DP-1 files in the DP-1 folder, the system converts them to DP-2 files. After the conversion takes place, the system moves the converted files into the video archive folder and deletes the old DP-1 files.

You can also place DP-1 files directly into the C:\Images\DP-1 folder and the system will convert the files to DP-2 files and move them to the archive. The old DP-1 files will then be deleted from the folder.

Page 194 of 252

Procedure 86 – Setting up your DP-2 system to Ingest DP-1 files

1.

Install the operating system version 4.5.7 or higher. When the Install Wizard prompts you to add a new folder for DP-1 ingestion, click yes and continue with the install. This is the file folder that the system installs on the docking server:

C:\Images\DP-1

2. After the install is complete, the DP-2 system should recognize DP-1 files during docking. The system will automatically convert the files to DP-2 files and move them to the archive.

If you missed creating the C:\Images\DP-1 file folder during the install, you can create it on the docking server when you are ready to ingest DP-1 files.

In addition to ingesting files through the normal docking process, you can also copy DP-1 files to the C:\Images\DP-1 folder. The system will ingest these files as though they were uploaded from a vehicle.

Procedure 87 – Setting up DP-1 ingestion when you have separate DP-1 and DP-2 servers

This procedure will place all new files in the DP-2 archive after you change the path.

1. Stop all DP-1 services.

2.

Edit Microsoft IIS services: Change the Default FTP Site location path from:

[drive letter]:\FTPData

To:

The new DP-1 Ingest location (as set in DP-2 setup software for Main Server, usually C:\Images\DP-1)

Page 195 of 252

Procedure 88 – Setting up a new server for DP-1 and DP-2

1. Setup DP-2 using the install disc for version 4.5.7 or higher. Be sure to set up a DP-1 ingest folder location on the docking server.

2.

Edit Microsoft IIS services to create a new FTP Site: a. IP address: All unassigned b. TCP Port: 7456 c. Location Path: [drive letter]:\<DP-1 ingest folder name>

3.

Add a new Windows user account to the docking server using the DP-1 city code. The new user name is the city code that Integrian has provided you with. (for example “DEMO”). The password for the special user is “DP<city code>;FTP:00001”. (e.g.DPDEMO;FTP:00001)

Known limitations if you use DP-1 ingestion with version 4.5.7

Old DP-1 Files Do Not Convert

Older DP-1 files that do not have metadata do not import well and should not be used.

The older DP-1 files that you should not use have shorter names than the newer DP-1 files. Older DP-1 files typically have names containing fewer than 40 characters.

The good newer DP-1 files tend to have longer names that contain more tilde ”~” characters. Newer DP-1 files typically have names of more than 40 characters.

Figure 141 – Types of DP-1 Files

DP-1 Files Cannot be Marked for Review

Officers using the DP-1 system in their vehicles cannot tag DP-1 video files as “mark for review.” Use some other tag to indicate review status.

Event Marker and Brake GPIOs are not Ingested.

Any customer using these two GPIOs will permanently lose this information once the video is ingested.

Old DP-1 file (do not use)New DP-1 file

Page 196 of 252

The DpView feature “Export with DVD Author” Will not Work

Use the “Export to DVD” option instead.

Ingestion process currently supports only default video codec Microsoft MPEG4 v3

Do not change this setting in DP-1; the ingestion will not work correctly.

DP-1 classification field Incident Description is not ingested

Any customer using the Incident Description classification field in DP-1 (No Information, Fight, Shots Fired, Runaway, Cooperative, Non Cooperative) will permanently lose this information once the video is ingested.

DP-2 Garage Server and DP-2 Main Server have to reside on the same machine

If the Garage Server and the Main Server are installed on separate machines the DP-1 ingestion will not work.

Known limitations if you use DP-1 ingestion with version 4.5.8

DP-1 Files with vehicle IDs that contain uppercase alpha characters cannot be ingested

DP-1 Files Cannot be Marked for Review

Officers using the DP-1 system in their vehicles cannot tag DP-1 video files as “mark for review.” Use some other tag to indicate review status.

Event Marker GPIOs are not Ingested.

The event marking tag used in DP-1 does not persist after the file is converted to DP-2. You can re apply the event marker after the files are converted.

The DpView feature “Export to DVD ” and “Export with Viewer” will not work for all incidents

Export to DVD and Export with Viewer will work only for those DP-1 incidents that have no classification information.

Ingestion process currently supports only default video codec Microsoft MPEG4 v3

Do not change this setting in DP-1; the ingestion will not work correctly.

8.13 (K) DP-2 MDVR Network Setup

As shown in Figure 6, the DP-2 MDVR has a 10/100 Mbps Ethernet network interface card (NIC) hubbed to three external connectors, and a Gigabit Ethernet NIC with one external connector. (Refer to sections 3.1.2, 3.1.3 of the DP-2 Reference Manual.)

Figure 192 - External Connectors for DP-2 MDVR Network Interface Cards

Recommended usage of these connectors is shown in Table 3. Appropriate usage of each of these connectors is determined for each site by the FAE.

Table 83 - Recommended DP-2 MDVR Network Connector Usage

Connector Recommended Usage

Rear Gigabit Ethernet connector X8

Wired docking (optional)

Rear Ethernet connector X6 Wireless bridge or Mobile Data Terminal (optional)

Rear Ethernet connector X7 Wireless bridge or Mobile Data Terminal (optional)

Front USB connector Portable Service Unit (PSU)(diagnostics)

Front 10/100 Ethernet port Wireless bridge or Mobile Data Terminal (optional)

The DP-2 Configuration Tool provides one page for the configuration of each NIC, as shown in Table 84. In exceptional circumstances, changes need to be made on the DVR directly. In this case, refer to the corresponding Windows Control Panel descriptions of the two NICs, also given in Table 84.

You cannot use both front USB ports at the same time

You cannot use both Rear 10/100 Ethernet ports at the same time

Various network configurations are possible, as described in 8.13.1. In-car and garage Wireless Access Points must be setup with either dynamic or static addresses as appropriate to the network configuration.

8.13.1 DP-2 MDVR Network Configurations

With devices attached to the connectors as recommended in Table 3, a number of different network configurations are possible, as shown in Table 85.

In all cases, a PSU needs to be able to connect to the DP-2 MDVR, and an MDT may also be connected. These require a static IP address to connect to. The recommended setup for each configuration is described in order in the following sections.

8.13.2 Desktop Docking Only

For a DP-2 system where only Storage Blade Docking is used, set NICs as shown in Table 86, to allow connection of PSU and (optional) MDT. These are the default settings.

When installing MDVRs in this scenario, the configuration details entered during the installation of the Desktop Docking PC are NOT USED. The MDVRs must be setup with the appropriate docking server address (see section 7.3.2.1).

8.13.3 Wireless Docking Only

For a DP-2 system where only Wireless (802.11) Docking is used, set NICs as shown in Table 87. These are the default settings.

If DHCP dynamic IP addressing is used, it must only apply to the wireless interface of the wireless access point. In all cases, the Ethernet NIC of the wireless access point will have a static IP address in the 192.168.0.0/16 range. To use a wireless bridge in this case, connect it to the Gigabit port, and configure as for wired docking, below.

If static IP addressing is used, a wireless bridge can be used, and must be manually configured with a static IP address in the appropriate range for the client’s wireless network.
