Milestone Systems released Device Pack 8.6 for partners and customers using Milestone XProtect video solutions. Device packs are released every other month and contain software updates supporting new hardware. These updates are rooted in demands from the partner community. Thanks to the foundation of true open platform technology, Milestone adds new devices and functionality to the XProtect VMS at a rapid pace. The XProtect Device Packs include tested drivers optimized to enable cameras or other hardware devices to be used by XProtect software. Milestone said it has always promoted driver standards such as ONVIF and remains dedicated to supporting the broadest range of cameras and devices on the market. Before an ONVIF device is listed as Milestone-supported hardware, it has been tested to ensure that its functionality with XProtect is compliant with ONVIF specifications. Testing drivers ensures the highest functionality for a video surveillance solution which is vital in total system operability, efficiency and stability.
