Milestone Securitas AeroScout Integration for system administrators

System architecture

Last Updated: 1 minute read

To receive alarms from your AeroScout MobileView system, you must install the Milestone Securitas AeroScout Integration service on a computer with access to the AeroScout MobileView servers and the XProtect VMS. The integration service collects events from the AeroScout MobileView servers and maps them to user-defined or analytics events in the XProtect VMS.

You can use the events to create alarms that notify the XProtect Smart Client users.

The integration requires the following elements:

  • AeroScout MobileView system

  • Milestone Securitas AeroScout Integration service

  • XProtect VMS

  • Milestone Securitas AeroScout plug-ins for XProtect Management Client and XProtect Smart Client

Note

Milestone recommends that you install the integration service on a computer that is dedicated to running the integration.

The basic data flow for receiving alarms in XProtect Smart Client is as follows:

  1. The AeroScout MobileView system sends event information to the integration service.

  2. The integration service sends the event information to the event server.

  3. The event server triggers an alarm and sends it to XProtect Smart Client.

  4. The integration plug-in for XProtect Smart Client loads the AeroScout MobileView map that is associated with the alarm.
