Adding Peregrine CAD providers in the Dispatch System Connector plugin - Dispatch System Connector 5.10.0.0

If the authority sending CAD calls to your organization uses the Peregrine CAD system, you must add a Peregrine CAD provider.

1. From the Providers page, select the CAD ingestion service check box.
2. From the CAD ingestion service properties section, navigate to the Provider type menu, and select Peregrine.
   1. In the Provider address field, enter the provider address supplied by Peregrine.
   2. In the Authentication address field, enter the authentication address supplied by Peregrine.
   3. In the Authentication info field, enter the authentication info supplied by Peregrine.
   4. In the Provider-specific info field, enter any settings recommended by Peregrine. Usually, the default values are sufficient.
   Best Practice: Do not change the remaining values in the CAD ingestion service properties section.
3. In the Authentication section, select your authentication mode.
   Best Practice: Basic is the recommended mode for most use cases.
4. In the Custom events section, define a time period after which a notification is sent if no data is received.
5. In the Data retention section, determine how long CAD data is saved for:

   Duration

   Choose to retain data forever, or for a specified number of days.
