Clear Calibration Prompts: When the 9-axis motion sensor requires recalibration, a clear and persistent notification is displayed on the OLED screen until the calibration process is completed.
Controlled Live Streaming: Live media streaming now strictly follows the "Allow Live Media Streaming When Docked" setting, ensuring it only activates when explicitly enabled.
Reliable Bluetooth Pairing: On the PERCEPT BC200, the device exits pairing mode automatically if Bluetooth is turned off during a Yardarm pairing process, allowing users to quickly restart pairing.
Smarter Transport Mode: The PERCEPT BC200 transport mode now operates based on battery voltage, with clearer startup feedback and a simpler way to exit the mode.
Simplified Configuration Options: The Orientation Enabled option has been removed from the PERCEPT BC200.
Enforced Silent Mode: When Silent Mode is configured via the QR Code Generator, the setting is enforced on the device, preventing local changes and ensuring consistent behavior.
Yardarm Integration Enabled: Yardarm devices are now supported on the PERCEPT BC200.
Consistent Power State in Docking: The camera now keeps its current power state when placed in the charging dock, so if it is off when docked, it stays off.
Haptic Feedback for Recording Stop: Haptic feedback is now provided when the Main Button is pressed for more than 3 seconds to stop recording, along with an OLED indication that recording has stopped.
Consistent Serial Number Formatting: Device serial numbers are now displayed exactly as returned by the ION API, including dashes, ensuring consistency across interfaces.
Streamlined Wearer ID Setup: Devices with "Record Permanently" enabled now allow required setup flows, such as Wi-Fi and wearer ID configuration, to complete before recording begins. QR code mode is accessible during onboarding, and when "Require Wearer's ID" is enabled, devices now prompt for a valid ID before granting access to features, taking priority over auto-start recording.
Enhanced HTTPS Configuration Persistence: Devices now reliably retain the "HTTPS only" setting across reboots when enabled via the web interface, ensuring consistent secure access and reliable application of PERCEPT Cloud configuration templates.
Enhanced Certificate Management: Devices now support adding Wi-Fi SSL client certificates without errors, improving compatibility with secure networks.
Improved QR Code Scanning: QR code scanning on the PERCEPT BC200 is now faster and more reliable.
Optimized Pre-Recording Behavior: A new configuration option disables pre-recording while devices are docked, reducing thermal overheating and ensuring uninterrupted charging. This setting is enabled by default and persists across reboots.
Genetec Wearable Camera Manager role: The Genetec Wearable Camera Manager role now operates as expected on the PERCEPT BC200 body camera, supporting JSON configuration imports and video uploads when connected to a docking station.
OLED Display Enhancements: The PERCEPT BC200 OLED screen now displays estimated SD card recording time based on free space and configured bitrate. Grooming mode status is also clearly indicated.
Improved Cellular Provisioning: Support has been enhanced for newer SIM profiles with automatic APN selection and seamless compatibility across existing carrier configurations.
Improved Startup Reliability: Devices now start consistently and recover smoothly from unexpected reboots or shutdowns.
Configurable Battery‑Powered Shutdown Timeout: Designed for installations where the body camera is normally continuously powered, this feature allows the device to initiate a configurable shutdown delay when external power is lost and it switches to battery.
The delay duration is configurable via the web interface.
Shutdown is canceled if external power returns before the timer expires.
Enhanced Time Synchronization: Cameras now reliably synchronize to the correct time when the "Automatic date & time" option is enabled.
Resilient Firmware Updates: The firmware update process has been improved to properly recover from power cycling during updates.
Optimized Storage Management: When grooming is configured in "Chronological" mode, the system automatically manages storage space to prevent the micro-SD from becoming full during continuous recording.
Enhanced Compatibility with Milestone SmartClient: The playback recording timeline in Milestone SmartClient now reliably displays all edge recordings requested from the PERCEPT Body Camera after docking.
Improved Synchronization: Edge recordings requested by the Milestone Server are now successfully synced and available for playback within minutes of docking the PERCEPT Body Camera.
Improved Connectivity: Connection between the PERCEPT Body Camera and PERCEPT Cloud remains stable and consistent even under limited bandwidth or after network transitions.
Enhanced Live Streaming Stability: Real-time streaming from PERCEPT Cloud is now more reliable under limited connectivity or after a network change.
Improved Live Streaming Reliability: Streaming is now supported across a wider range of network configurations, ensuring more consistent connectivity in diverse environments.
Firmware Update Visibility: Added support for near real-time firmware update status in PERCEPT Cloud.
Enhanced Firmware Update Process: Firmware updates now proceed seamlessly when connected via LTE and the Wi-Fi interface is set as an Access Point, provided the battery level meets the required threshold.
Improved Compatibility with ONVIF Recording Search: The body camera now complies with the ONVIF Profile G specification, ensuring compatibility with the Recording Search service.
Improved Recording Integrity: When the "Record Permanently" feature is enabled by an Administrator, recordings remain active and unaffected by Super user actions in the Live Viewer.
Improved Device Onboarding: Devices deleted and subsequently re-added to PERCEPT Cloud now come back online successfully within 5 minutes. This ensures a reliable and uninterrupted onboarding process for device management.
Accurate LTE Status Reporting: The LTE status now reflects the current state of the LTE connection, including operator, signal strength, and SIM status, ensuring reliable visibility in PERCEPT Cloud.
Faster Video Archive Indexing: The indexing process for video archives has been improved, allowing quicker access to recordings and reducing delays during retrieval.
Comprehensive File Indexing: All files on the SD card are now indexed during the rebuild process, preventing recording interruptions caused by unindexed files.
Streamlined Configuration Templates: Multi-template support has been disabled, allowing only one template per device. This ensures consistent and reliable behavior when managing configuration templates.
Reliable Integrations Tab: The Integrations tab now loads content correctly in all supported configurations, ensuring seamless access to and management of integrations.
Automatic VPN Reconnection: VPN connections now automatically reconnect if disconnected, maintaining continuous connectivity without manual intervention.
Persistent VPN Configuration: VPN configurations remain operational after firmware updates, eliminating the need for reconfiguration and ensuring uninterrupted connectivity.
