P a g e 27 Operating Procedures Remotely Triggering a Recording The remote triggering function will automatically trigger a recording on a remote device or devices whenever an officer manually starts a BWX-100 recording within line sight of one or more BWX-100s that are within range (assuming those devices are configured for remote triggering). If your agency is also using the FlashbackHD in-car video system, the auto-trigger function will remotely trigger recordings in two additional ways. Additional Triggers (Flashback Only) Trigger Type Description BWX-to Flashback Automatically start a Flashback recording whenever an officer starts a BWX-100 recording within line sight of a Flashback that is less than 100 feet away. Flashback-to-BWX Automatically start a BWX-100 recording whenever a Flashback recording is initiated* within line sight of a BWX-100 that is less than 100 feet away. To configure your BWX-100 to broadcast and receive remote record trigger messages, login to DES and select Enabled from the Remote Triggering drop-down list. This will cause two things to happen: Whenever you start a recording, your BWX-100 will broadcast a remote record trigger message, which in turn will cause all in-range devices to start recording. Whenever you receive a remote record trigger message from another device when your device is idle (i.e., not recording), your BWX-100 will automatically start recording. NOTE: When remote triggering is disabled, the BWX-100 will not be able to broadcast or receive remote record trigger messages. For instructions on how to update your BWX-100’s DES record, see “Changing a BWX-100 DVR Record on page 39.

The following is an overview of the steps involved in setting up the BWX-100 with your DES software. The specific procedures involved in each of these steps are referenced in various sections throughout this document. Make sure that you perform these steps in sequential order. Page 30 In collaboration with your agency’s Network/IT staff, determine the range of IP addresses that are not currently being used by Flashback DVRs, access points, or Backup PCs on the L3 Mobile-Vision network. Write this information down, as you will need it the next time you contact L3 Mobile-Vision Service. Set up an Uplink Station for your BWX-100s, as pictured in Figures 1 – 3 beginning on page 19. The server switch should contain the network environment for your L3 specific devices (i.e., Flashback DVRs, robotic DVD burner, and wireless access points). Your agency’s Network/IT staff can assist you with this task. Place your BWX-100 in one of the docking stations in your Uplink Station. Leave it there until the word CHARGED displays, indicating that the device is fully charged. Select the appropriate DES BWX-100 download options and preferred settings, as described in “Configuring a New BWX-100 DVR in DES” on page 37. BWX-100 User’s Guide L3 Mobile-Vision 5.8.2018 Getting Started If you are a DEV customer, select an option to assign an IP address to your BWX100, as described in “DEV Customers” on page 32. If you are a DEP, DEA Precinct, or DEF customer, speak with one of our Technical Support Engineers (TSEs) to help you configure the DHCP service (see NOTE below) and set up the storage server to assign IP addresses to your BWX-100s. To contact Mobile-Vision Support, call 1-800-336-8475 and select the Service option, followed by Back Office. NOTE: If your agency has a DHCP server on the LAN to which you’re connecting the BWX-100, you may connect the devices to the “non L3” network that interacts with your department’s PCs. However, in that scenario, your department would be responsible for configuring the DHCP service. Assigning IP Addresses to Your BWX-100 Devices If any of these conditions apply to you, you may skip this section: You are a new DEP, DEA Precinct, or DEF customer Your agency has a DHCP server on the LAN to which you’re connecting the BWX-100 If none of these conditions apply to you, you need to select a method for the system to “discover” each BWX-100 device and assign it an IP address. An IP Address is a numerical label that is required in order for the BWX-100 to communicate with your DES storage server. The method you select depends on the type of software you’re using. For more information, see: Existing DEP, DEA Precinct, or DEF Customers, below DEV Customers, next page. Existing DEP, DEA Precinct, or DEF Customers If you are running DEP, DEA Precinct, or DEF on a Linux server, you need to install and configure a DHCP server ‘RPM’ file so that the system can automatically assign IP addresses to your BWX-100s. One of our Technical Support Engineers can assist you with this task. To contact us, call 1-800-336-8475 and select the Service option, followed by Back Office. BWX-100 User’s Guide L3 Mobile-Vision 5.8.2018 P a g e 31 Getting Started DEV Customers If you are running Digital Evidence Viewer (DEV) on a Windows PC, you have three options to assign IP addresses to your BWX-100s (select one): 1) Configure the Dell PowerConnect Ethernet switch to automatically assign IP addresses to your BWX-100s. An L3 Mobile-Vision Technical Support Engineer can assist you with this task. If you don’t have a Dell PowerConnect Ethernet switch and do not wish to purchase one, select option 2 or 3 instead. – OR – 2) Install and Configure a DHCP Server Windows application provided by L3 Mobile-Vision. An L3 Mobile-Vision Technical Support Engineer can assist you with this task. For customers with only one BWX-100 – OR – 3) Configure the LAN port on your BWX-100 PC for DHCP, as described below. This procedure only applies to customers who have one BWX-100. If you have more than one device, you will have to use option 1 or 2. If you’re not sure which option to choose, let us know and we will help you with that decision. To reach L3 Mobile Vision Support, call 1-800-336-8475 and select the Service option, followed by Back Office. Configuring the LAN port on your BWX-100 PC for DHCP If you are a DEV customer who has only one BWX-100, use this procedure to configure your PC’s LAN port so that it will automatically assign an IP address to the BWX-100. NOTE: The following instructions represent Windows 7. If you have a different version of Windows, this procedure may vary slightly. 1 Locate the Network Icon in the lower right corner of your Windows screen. 2 Right-click on the icon and select Open Network and Sharing Center from the popup menu. 3 Go to the left side of your screen and select Change adapter settings.

BWX-100 User’s Guide L3 Mobile-Vision 5.8.2018 P a g e 33 Configuring BWX-100 to Work with DES 7 Make sure the following options are selected: 8 Click OK. 9 Close all the windows that you opened during this setup process. Configuring BWX-100 to Work with DES Before you begin using your BWX-100, you must change certain settings in DES. As with Flashback videos, BWX-100 videos are typically linked to a particular officer, that is, the officer who recorded the video or captured the snapshot. To create this link, DES includes an Officer Dispatch feature that is somewhat similar to the USB Login Key feature used with Flashbacks. Specifically, the Officer Dispatch feature allows you to assign different BWX-100 devices to different officers each shift. This allows multiple officers working different shifts to share a limited number of BWX-100 devices. Once an officer completes his shift and places the BWX-100 back in its docking station, the system uploads that device’s files and flags the device as “In” (i.e., available). You may then reassign that DVR to a different officer. Alternately, some agencies may choose to assign one “take home” BWX-100 to each officer. This eliminates the need for the Officer Dispatch feature. Instead, you simply enter each officer’s name on their BWX-100 record. In the future, all videos recorded on that device will then be linked to that officer. WARNING: Under certain circumstances, your L3 Mobile-Vision Service professional may provide you with a procedure used to reset the configuration file within your BWX-100 device. If you are familiar with this procedure, do not use it again unless instructed to do so by an L3 Mobile-Vision Service professional! Doing so could interfere with DVR-to-server communication, making it impossible for you to upload your videos to the server.

When you select a resolution, keep the following guidelines in mind: Higher resolution recordings have the advantage of a better picture quality, but the disadvantage of an increased storage space requirement. Cropped views have the advantage of increased battery runtime, but the disadvantage of a decreased field of view. Generally, it’s best to select the highest quality picture possible while still maintaining enough storage space and battery runtime to meet your agency’s needs.
