2 Description

The DINION capture is a specialty camera designed to capture
consistent, high-quality images of vehicle license plates.
Available in IP and analog versions, it is ideal for monitoring
parking lots, public areas, and for controlling vehicle access.
The DINION capture overcomes the problems encountered
when using conventional surveillance cameras in vehicle
identification and automatic license plate recognition
applications. The Night Capture Imaging System delivers a
burst of infrared illumination and simultaneously filters out
visible light to ensure clear license plate images in complete
darkness while eliminating the negative effects of headlight
glare.
Advanced Ambient Compensation minimizes plate
overexposure from sunlight for more accurate automatic license
plate recognition. Finally, adjustable imaging modes allow for
fine-tuning the imager for specific regions or license plate
recognition algorithms.

3 Installing the DINION capture

This section provides instructions for mounting and wiring the
DINION capture.

CAUTION!

The selected mounting location should not place the camera in
a situation where its environmental specifications could be
exceeded.
Ensure the selected location is protected from falling objects,
accidental contact with moving objects, and unintentional
interference from personnel. Follow all applicable building
codes.

3.1 Determining the Range

The DINION capture has a recommended operation range with
specified optimal capture distance for each model as shown
below. Installation should aim to control the traffic through one
lane.

Ranges based on capturing:

520 x 115 mm (approximate) license plates on PAL units
(xER-L2Ry-1)
12 x 6 in. (approximate) license plates on NTSC units
(xER-L2Ry-2)

Field of View at Optimal Capture Distance:

2.8 x 2.1 m (PAL units)
6 ft 6 in. x 4 ft 11 in. (NTSC units)

(54–92 ft)

3.2 Determining the Angle

The maximum mounting angle of the license plate camera to the
car is 40° for speeds up to 160 km/h (100 mph), both
horizontally and vertically. This angle limits the amount of skew
of the letters on the number plate. If the letters are skewed too
much they will start to become unrecognizable and will reduce
automatic software recognition rates.
For maximum performance ensure the mounting angle is as
narrow as possible. To capture vehicle speeds up to 225 km/h
(140 mph) the horizontal and vertical mounting angle should be
less than 30°.

If the maximum range is exceeded, then the letters become
smaller and more difficult to read. At the maximum range and
angle the width of the number plate covers approximately 12%
of the width of the screen.

NOTICE!

The Capture Range is the distance from the license plate
camera to the license plate. Working below the optimal capture
distance allows a larger area for number plates and more
accurate recognition but less lane area can be covered. If the
imager is too close to the license plate, the plate could
disappear from the field of view before it is captured.

3.3 Mounting the DINION capture

CAUTION!

Installation should only be performed by a qualified service
professional in accordance with the National Electrical Code or
applicable local codes.

For a secure mounting installation, bolts should extend through

3.4 Preparing the Wiring

CAUTION!

Before proceeding, disconnect the power from the power
supply cable. Ensure that the voltage of the unit matches the
voltage and type of the power supply being used.

The DINION capture 5000 IP is pre-wired with a 2-m long power
input lead and 10/100 Ethernet cable with a male RJ45
connection. The DINION capture 5000 IP can accept power via
the Ethernet cable compliant with the Power-over-Ethernet+
(PoE+ IEEE 802.3at) standard or from a Class 2 power supply.

| 1.0 | 2012.01 Installation Manual Bosch Security Systems, Inc.

DINION capture 5000 IP Installing the DINION capture | en 25

3.4.1 Power Input Connections

A voltage regulator circuit allows for DC or AC operation
between 11-30 VDC and 24 VAC. It also provides protection
from voltage surges, transient spikes, and reversed voltage.
Connect power from a 24 VAC or 11–30 VDC Class 2 power
supply to the ferrule tipped power leads (red, black) from the
camera. Use minimum AWG18 stranded wire.

Note:
For a Class 2 AC/DC supply the polarity does not matter.

3.4.2 Ethernet and Power Connections

– Connect the camera to a 10/100 Base-T network.
– Use screened UTP Category 5e cable with RJ45 connectors

(the camera network socket is Auto MDIX compliant).

– Power can be supplied to the camera via the Ethernet

cable compliant with the Power-over-Ethernet Plus
(IEEE 802.3at) standard.

Three power options, PoE+, 24 VAC, and 11–30 VDC are
available. Using PoE+ makes installation easier and more cost­effective, as cameras do not require a local power source. To
increase system reliability, the camera can be simultaneously
connected to both PoE+ and 11-30 VDC/24 VAC supplies.
By default, power is supplied to the camera via the 11–30 VDC
or 24 VAC power input leads.

3.4.3 Video Connection for Installation

To assist in setting up the camera, the DINION capture 5000 IP
provides a BNC connect on the back panel. Use this BNC
connector to temporarily connect a monitor to the IP camera,
refer to Section 3.6 Connecting to a Coax Cable, page 27.

supply cable. Ensure that the voltage of the unit matches the
voltage and type of the power supply being used.

The easiest way to connect the cables is as follows:

1. Bring the building connections through the surface cable
hole so that they hang clear.

2. Connect the Ethernet cable with connector to RJ-45 jack
coming from the DINION capture 5000 IP.

3. Connect the ferrule tipped power wires (red, black;
polarity independent) to the power supply connection if
power is not supplied via PoE+ over the Ethernet cable.
Note: You can connect the imager to a PoE+ and to an 11­30 VDC / 24 VAC supply simultaneously.

4. In damp environments ensure that the connections are
sealed inside a junction box or a field wiring box with
NEMA 3 or IP55 protection level or better. Make the
connections inside the water tight compartment. After
connections are made ensure that the watertight
compartment is tightly closed and cables and conduits are
properly sealed to prevent ingress of water.

3.9 Automatic Mode Switching

Automatic Mode Switching is a feature on the license plate
camera that automatically compensates for bright conditions.
Automatic Mode Switching, by default, operates by switching
from Mode 1 (Normal) to Mode 2 (FullSun) when the ambient
light levels rise above normal conditions (for example, bright
sunlight on the scene). Automatic Mode Switching is inactive by
default and requires setup to operate as desired.
In most conditions, Automatic Mode Switching may not be
necessary. Activate the switch only if the license plate camera
operates as desired during darker conditions but overexposes
the image during sunny conditions.
IMPORTANT: Only setup Automatic Mode Switching if the
target license plate is in the sun and the captured image is
overexposed, never setup if the license plate is in the shade.

the management of multiple devices in more extensive systems.
The name is used for remote identification, for example, in the
event of an alarm. Enter a name that makes it as easy as
possible to identify the location unambiguously.

7.2.2 Password

A password prevents unauthorized access to the device. The
device recognizes three authorization levels: service, user, and
live.
– service is the highest authorization level. Entering the

correct password gives access to all the functions of the
camera and allows all configuration settings to be
changed.

– user is the middle authorization level. This user can

operate the device, play back recordings, and also control
a camera but cannot change the configuration.

– live is the lowest authorization level. It can only be used to

view the live video image and switch between the different
live image displays.

Use the various authorization levels to limit access. Proper
password protection is only guaranteed if all higher
authorization levels are also protected with a password. For
example, if a live password is assigned, a service and a user
password should also be set. When assigning passwords,
always start from the highest authorization level, service, and
use different passwords.

Password

Define and change a separate password for each level while
logged in as service or if the device is not protected by a
password. Enter the password (19 characters maximum) for
the selected level.

Confirm password

Re-enter the new password to ensure that there are no typing
mistakes.
The new password is only saved after clicking Set. Therefore,
click Set immediately after entering and confirming the
password, even if assigning a password at another level.

7.3 Date/Time

Device date, time and zone

If there are multiple devices operating in the system or
network, it is important to synchronize their internal clocks. For
example, it is only possible to identify and correctly evaluate
simultaneous recordings when all devices are operating on the
same time.
As the device time is controlled by the internal clock, it is not
necessary to enter the day or date of the week. These are set
automatically. The time zone in which the system is located is
also set automatically.
– Click Sync to PC to apply the system time from your

computer to the device.

Time server IP address

The camera can receive the time signal from a time server using
various time server protocols and then use it to set the internal
clock. The device polls the time signal automatically once every
minute. Enter the IP address of a time server.

Time server type

Select the protocol that is supported by the selected time
server. It is recommended to select the SNTP server protocol.
This protocol provides high accuracy and is required for special
applications and future function extensions. Select Time server
if the server uses the RFC 868 protocol.

Note:

It is important to ensure that the date/time is correct for
recording. An incorrect date/time setting could prevent correct
recording.

allocation, set this parameter to On to activate the automatic
acceptance of DHCP-assigned IP addresses.

Note:

Certain applications (for example, Bosch Video Management
System) use the IP address for the unique assignment of the
device. If using these applications, the DHCP server must
support the fixed assignment between IP address and MAC
address, and must be appropriately set up so that, once an IP
address is assigned, it is retained each time the system is
rebooted.

IP address

Enter the desired IP address for the camera. The IP address
must be valid for the network.

Subnet mask

8.4.3 Shutter/AGC

Shutter

NOTICE!

Shutter and gain settings should be changed only by an
experienced user. Changing the shutter speed affects maximum
capture speed of the vehicle and ambient rejection ability.
Shutter is fixed at 1/5000 from the factory for maximum
performance.

– Fixed — allows a user-defined shutter speed

(recommended setting).

– AES (auto-shutter) — the camera automatically sets the

optimum shutter speed. The camera tries to maintain the
selected default shutter speed as long as the light level of
the scene permits.

Default shutter / Fixed shutter

Select the shutter speed (1/60 [1/50], 1/100, 1/120, 1/250, 1/
500, 1/1000, 1/2000, 1/5000, 1/10K) for the default (AES) or
fixed value.
In AES mode, the camera tries to maintain the selected shutter
speed as long as the light level of the scene is high enough.
In Fixed mode, select the shutter speed.
If the optimal license plate image cannot be obtained by
adjusting gain, increase the shutter speed to 1/10000 to darken
the image, decrease the shutter speed to 1/2000 or more to
brighten the image but reduce the maximum capture speed and
ambient rejection ability.

Actual shutter

Displays the actual shutter value from the camera to help
compare lighting levels and optimum shutter speed during set­up.

Sensitivity up

Selects the factor by which the sensitivity of the camera is
increased (OFF, 2x, 3x, etc. to a maximum of 10x).

Bosch Security Systems, Inc. Installation Manual | 1.0 | 2012.01

68 en | Advanced Mode DINION capture 5000 IP

Note:

If Sensitivity up is active, some noise or spots may appear in the
picture. This is normal camera behavior. Sensitivity up may
cause some motion blur on moving objects.

Gain
AGC - the camera automatically sets the gain to the lowest

possible value needed to maintain a good picture.
Fixed - sets Fixed gain value. For best performance, Fixed gain
is recommended.

Maximum gain / Fixed gain

Selects the maximum value the gain can have during AGC
operation (0 to 30 dB).
Selects the gain setting for Fixed gain operation (0 is no gain).
Increase gain if license plate image appears dark and decrease
gain if plate appears bright.

Actual gain

Displays the actual AGC value from the camera to help compare
gain level with lighting levels and picture performance.

8.4.4 Enhance

NOTICE!

The Enhance settings are factory set to work optimally for
capturing license plates, only an experienced user should
change these settings. Use discretion when changing settings.

Dynamic engine

– Off: turns off all automatic scene detail and enhancements

(recommended setting).

– XF Dynamic: extra internal processing is enabled for low-

light applications (traffic, etc.).

– 2X Dynamic: 2X Dynamic adds dual sensor exposure to the

XF Dynamic features. In harsh lighting conditions pixels
from each exposure are mixed to give a more detailed
image (use 2X Dynamic when SmartBLC is not required).

– Smart BLC: BLC window and weighting factor are

automatically defined. Camera dynamically adjusts these

DINION capture 5000 IP Advanced Mode | en 69

for changing light conditions. Includes all the benefits of
2X Dynamic.

NOTICE!

XF-DYN, 2X-DYN, or Smart BLC is not suitable for high shutter
speed license plate capture.

Auto black

Auto black ON automatically increases the visibility of details
even when scene contrast is less than full-range due to mist,
fog, etc.

Sharpness level

Adjusts the sharpness of the picture. A low (negative) value
decreases noise but makes the picture less sharp. Increasing
sharpness brings out more detail, but increases noise. Extra
sharpness can enhance the details of license plates.

Dynamic noise reduction

In AUTO mode the camera automatically reduces the noise in
the picture. This noise may cause some motion blur on
exceptionally fast moving objects immediately in front of the
camera. This issue can be corrected by selecting Off.

Peak white invert

Use Peak white invert to reduce glare from the CRT/LCD
display. Use this setting with discretion.

Profile Configuration

Profiles can be configured for use with the H.264 settings of
encoder streams. Select a profile by clicking the appropriate
tab. Change the name of a profile and individual parameter
values within a profile.
Profiles are rather complex. They include a number of
parameters that interact with one another, so it is generally
best to use the default profiles. Only change a profile if
completely familiar with all the configuration options.
The parameters as a group constitute a profile and are
dependent on one another. If a setting outside the permitted
range for a parameter is entered, the nearest valid value is
substituted when the settings are saved.

Profile name

Enter a new name for the profile here. (Do not use any special
characters, for example &.)

Target bit rate

To optimize utilization of the bandwidth in the network, limit
the bit rate for the camera. The target bit rate should be set
according to the desired picture quality for typical scenes with
no excessive motion.
For complex images or frequent changes of image content due
to frequent movements, this limit can temporarily be exceeded
up to the value entered in the Maximum bit rate field.

Maximum bit rate

This maximum bit rate is not exceeded under any
circumstances. Depending on the video quality settings for the
I-frames and P-frames, this can result in individual images being
skipped.
The value entered here must be at least 10% higher than the
value entered in the Target bit rate field. If the value entered
here is too low, it is automatically adjusted.

Encoding interval

The Encoding interval slider determines the interval at which
images are encoded and transmitted. This can be particularly

Bosch Security Systems, Inc. Installation Manual | 1.0 | 2012.01

72 en | Advanced Mode DINION capture 5000 IP

advantageous with low bandwidths. The image rate in ips
(images per second) is displayed next to the slider.

Video resolution

Select the desired resolution for the video image. The following
resolutions are available:
– CIF

352 × 288/240 pixels

– 4CIF/D1

704 × 576/480 pixels

Expert Settings

If necessary, use the expert settings to adapt the I-frame quality
and the P-frame quality to specific requirements. The setting is
based on the H.264 quantization parameter (QP).

GOP structure

Select the structure you require for the Group of Pictures.
Depending on whether you place greater priority on having the
lowest possible delay (IP frames only) or using as little
bandwidth possible, you choose IP, IBP, or IBBP.

I-frame distance

Use the slider to set the distance between I-frames to Auto or
to between 3 and 60. An entry of 3 means that every third
image is an I-frame. The lower the number, the more I-frames
are generated.

I-frame quality

This setting adjusts the image quality of the I-frames. The basic
setting Auto automatically adjusts the quality to the settings for
the P-frame video quality. Alternatively, use the slider to set a
value between 9 and 51. The value 9 represents the best image
quality with, if necessary, a lower frame refresh rate depending
on the settings for the maximum data rate. A value of 51 results
in a very high refresh rate and lower image quality.

P-frame quality

This setting adjusts the maximum image quality of the P-frames.
The basic setting Auto automatically adjusts to the optimum

Aggregation time [s]

Set an aggregation time of between 0 and 20 seconds. The
aggregation time always starts when an alarm event occurs. It
extends the alarm event by the value set. This prevents alarm
events that occur in quick succession from triggering several
alarms and successive events in a rapid sequence. No further
alarm is triggered during the aggregation time.
The post-alarm time set for alarm recordings only starts once
the aggregation time has expired.

Analysis type

Select the required analysis algorithm. By default, only Motion+
is available — this offers a motion detector and essential
recognition of tampering.
Metadata is always created for a video content analysis, unless
this was explicitly excluded. Depending on the analysis type
selected and the relevant configuration, additional information
overlays the video image in the preview window next to the
parameter settings. With the Motion+ analysis type, for
example, the sensor fields in which motion is recorded are
marked with rectangles.

Note:

Additional analysis algorithms with comprehensive functions,
such as IVMD and IVA, are available from Bosch Security
Systems.

Motion detector

Motion detection is available for the Motion+ analysis type. For
the detector to function, the following conditions must be met:
– Analysis must be activated.
– At least one sensor field must be activated.
– The individual parameters must be configured to suit the

operating environment and the desired responses.

– The sensitivity must be set to a value greater than zero.

Note:

Reflections of light (from glass surfaces, etc.), lights switching
on and off, or changes in the light level caused by cloud
movement on a sunny day can trigger unintended responses
from the motion detector and generate false alarms. Run a
series of tests at different times of the day and night to ensure
that the video sensor is operating as intended. For indoor
surveillance, ensure constant lighting of the areas during the
day and at night.

Sensitivity

Sensitivity is available for the Motion+ analysis type. The basic
sensitivity of the motion detector can be adjusted for the

Bosch Security Systems, Inc. Installation Manual | 1.0 | 2012.01

92 en | Advanced Mode DINION capture 5000 IP

environmental conditions to which the camera is subject. The
sensor reacts to variations in the brightness of the video image.
The darker the observation area, the higher the value that must
be selected.

Minimum object size

Specify the number of sensor fields that a moving object must
cover to generate an alarm. This setting prevents objects that
are too small from triggering an alarm. A minimum value of 4 is
recommended. This value corresponds to four sensor fields.

Debounce time 1 s

The debounce time prevents very brief alarm events from
triggering individual alarms. If the Debounce time 1 s option is
activated, an alarm event must last at least 1 second to trigger
an alarm.

Selecting the area

Select the areas of the image to be monitored by the motion
detector. The video image is subdivided into square sensor
fields. Activate or deactivate each of these fields individually. To
exclude particular regions of the camera's field of view from
monitoring due to continuous movement (by a tree in the wind,
for example), the relevant fields can be deactivated.

1. Click Select Area to configure the sensor fields. A new
window opens.

2. If necessary, click Clear All first to clear the current
selection (fields marked red).

3. Left-click the fields to be activated. Activated fields are

Tamper detection

Detect tampering of cameras and video cables by means of
various options. Run a series of tests at different times of the
day and night to ensure that the video sensor is operating as
intended.

Sensitivity and Trigger delay [s] can only be changed if
Reference check is selected.

Sensitivity

The basic sensitivity of the tamper detection can be adjusted
for the environmental conditions to which the camera is
subject. The algorithm reacts to the differences between the
reference image and the current video image. The darker the
observation area, the higher the value that must be selected.

Trigger delay [s]

Set delayed alarm triggering here. The alarm is only triggered
after a set time interval in seconds has elapsed and then only if
the triggering condition still exists. If the original condition has
been restored before this time interval elapses, the alarm is not
triggered. This avoids false alarms triggered by short-term
changes, for example, cleaning activities in the direct field of
vision of the camera.

Global change (slider)

Set how large the global change in the video image must be for
an alarm to be triggered. This setting is independent of the
sensor fields selected under Select Area. Set a high value if
fewer sensor fields need to change to trigger an alarm. With a
low value, it is necessary for changes to occur simultaneously in
a large number of sensor fields to trigger an alarm. This option
allows detection, independently of motion alarms, manipulation
of the orientation or location of a camera resulting from turning
the camera mount bracket, for example.

Global change

Activate this function if the global change, as set with the
Global change slide control, should trigger an alarm.

Scene too bright

Activate this function if tampering associated with exposure to
extreme light (for instance, shining a flashlight directly on the
objective) should trigger an alarm. The average brightness of
the scene provides a basis for recognition.

Scene too dark

Activate this function if tampering associated with covering the
objective (for instance, by spraying paint on it) should trigger
an alarm. The average brightness of the scene provides a basis
for recognition.

Scene too noisy

Activate this function if tampering associated with EMC
interference (noisy scene as the result of a strong interference
signal in the vicinity of the video lines) should trigger an alarm.

Reference check

Save a reference image that can be continuously compared with
the current video image. If the current video image in the
marked areas differs from the reference image, an alarm is
triggered. This detects tampering that would otherwise not be
detected, for example, if the camera is turned.

1. Click Reference to save the currently visible video- image
as a reference.

2. Click Select Area and select the areas in the reference
image that are to be monitored.

3. Check the box Reference check to activate the on-going
check. The stored reference image is displayed in black
and white below the current video image, and the selected
areas are marked in yellow.

4. Select the Disappearing edges or Appearing edges option
to specify the reference check once again.

Disappearing edges

The area selected in the reference image should contain a
prominent structure. If this structure is concealed or moved,
the reference check triggers an alarm. If the selected area is too
homogenous, so that concealing and moving the structure

would not trigger an alarm, then an alarm is triggered
immediately to indicate the inadequate reference image.

Appearing edges

Select this option if the selected area of the reference image
includes a largely homogenous surface. If structures appear in
this area, then an alarm is triggered.

Selecting the area

Select the image areas in the reference image that are to be
monitored. The video image is subdivided into square fields.
Activate or deactivate each of these fields individually.
Select only those areas for reference monitoring in which no
movement takes place and that are always evenly lit, as false
alarms could otherwise be triggered.

8.6.5 VCA configuration - Event triggered

This configuration allows you to stipulate that the video content
analysis is only to be activated when triggered by an event. As
long as no trigger is activated, the Silent MOTION+
configuration in which metadata is created is active; this
metadata facilitates searches of recordings, but does not
trigger an alarm.

Trigger

Select a physical alarm or a virtual alarm as a trigger. A virtual
alarm is created using software, with RCP+ commands or alarm
scripts, for example.

Trigger active

Select the VCA configuration here that is to be enabled via an
active trigger. A green check mark to the right of the list field
indicates that the trigger is active.

Trigger inactive

Select the VCA configuration here that is to be activated if the
trigger is not active. A green check mark to the right of the list
field indicates that the trigger is inactive.

Delay [s]

Select the delay period for the reaction of the video content
analysis to trigger signals. The alarm is only triggered after a set
time interval in seconds has elapsed and then only if the
triggering condition still exists. If the original condition has
been restored before this time interval elapses, the alarm is not
triggered. A delay period may be useful in avoiding false alarms
or frequent triggering. During the delay period, the Silent
MOTION+ configuration is always enabled.

8.6.6 Audio Alarm

NOTICE!

Provisions for audio connectivity are not available in the DINION
capture 5000 IP.

Create alarms based on audio signals. Configure signal
strengths and frequency ranges so that false alarms, for
example, machine noise or background noise, are avoided.
Set up normal audio transmission before configuring the audio
alarm.

Audio alarm
Select On for the device to generate audio alarms.

Name

The name makes it easier to identify the alarm in extensive
video monitoring systems, for example with the VIDOS and
Bosch Video Management System programs. Enter a unique and
clear name here. (Do not use any special characters, for
example &.)

Signal Ranges

Exclude particular signal ranges in order to avoid false alarms.
For this reason the total signal is divided into 13 tonal ranges
(mel scale). Check or uncheck the boxes below the graphic to
include or exclude individual ranges.

Threshold

Set up the threshold on the basis of the signal visible in the
graphic. Set the threshold using the slide control or,
alternatively, move the white line directly in the graphic using
the mouse.

Sensitivity

Use this setting to adapt the sensitivity to the sound
environment and effectively suppress individual signal peaks. A
high value represents a high level of sensitivity.

8.6.7 Alarm E-Mail

As an alternative to automatic connecting, alarm states can also
be documented by e-mail. This makes it possible to notify a
recipient who does not have a video receiver. In this case, the
camera automatically sends an e-mail to a user-defined e-mail
address.

Send alarm e-mail

Select On for the device to automatically send an alarm e-mail
in the event of an alarm.

Mail server IP address

Enter the IP address of a mail server that operates on the SMTP
standard (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol). Outgoing e-mails are
sent to the mail server via the address entered. Otherwise,
leave the box blank (0.0.0.0).

SMTP user name

Enter a registered user name for the chosen mail server.

SMTP password

Enter the required password for the registered user name.

Format

Select the data format of the alarm message.
– Standard (with JPEG): e-mail with JPEG image file

attachment.

– SMS: e-mail in SMS format to an e-mail-to-SMS gateway

(for example, to send an alarm by cellphone) without an

image attachment.
When a cellphone is used as the receiver, make sure to activate
the e-mail or SMS function, depending on the format, so that
these messages can be received. Obtain information on
operating your cellphone from your cellphone provider.

Attach JPEG from camera

Check the box to specify that JPEG images are sent from the
camera.
