Browser connection
A computer with Microsoft Internet Explorer is used to receive live images, control the unit,
and replay stored sequences. The unit is configured over the network using the browser.
System requirements
–
Network access (Intranet or Internet)
– Microsoft Internet Explorer version 9 (32-bit)
– Screen resolution at least 1024 × 768 pixels
– 16- or 32-bit color depth
– JVM installed
The Web browser must be configured to enable Cookies from the IP address of the unit.
In Windows Vista, deactivate protected mode on the Security tab under Internet Options.
To play back live video images, an appropriate ActiveX must be installed on the computer. If
necessary, install Bosch Video Client. This can be downloaded from the following address:
http://downloadstore.boschsecurity.com/
Establishing the connection
The unit must have a valid IP address to operate on your network and a compatible subnet
mask. By default, DHCP is pre-set at the factory to On
and so your DHCP server assigns an IP
address. With no DHCP server the default address is 192.168.0.1
1. Start the Web browser.
2. Enter the IP address of the unit as the URL.
3. During initial installation, confirm any security questions that appear.
Note:
If you cannot connect, the unit may have reached its maximum number of connections.
Depending on the device and network configuration, each unit can have up to 50 web browser
connections, or up to 100 connections via Bosch Video Client or Bosch Video Management
System.
Password protection in camera
A unit offers the option of limiting access across various authorization levels. If the unit is
password-protected, a message to enter the password appears.
1.
Enter the user name and the associated password in the appropriate fields.
2. Click OK. If the password is correct, the desired page is displayed.
Protected network
If a RADIUS server is used for network access control (802.1x authentication), the unit must
be configured first. To configure the unit, connect it directly to a computer using a network
cable and configure the two parameters, Identity
and Password. Only after these have been
configured can communication with the unit via the network occur.

General
Identification
Camera name
The camera name makes it easier to identify the remote camera location, in the event of an
alarm for example. It will be displayed in the video screen if configured to do so. The camera
name makes the task of administering cameras in larger video monitoring systems easier, for
example using the BVC or Bosch Video Management Systems Programs.
Enter a unique, unambiguous name for the camera in this field. You can use both lines for this.
Do not use any special characters, for example &, in the name. Special characters are not
supported by the system's internal management.
You can use the second line for entering additional characters; these can be selected from a
table.
1.
Click the icon next to the second line. A new window with the character map is opened.
2. Click the required character. The character is inserted into the Result field.
3. In the character map, click the << and >> icons to move between the different pages of
the table, or select a page from the list field.
4. Click the < icon to the right of the Result field to delete the last character, or click the X
icon to delete all characters.
5. Now click the OK button to apply the selected characters to the second line of the
Camera 1 parameters. The window will close.
Camera ID
Each device should be assigned a unique identifier that can be entered here as an additional
means of identification.
Initiator extension
Add text to an initiator name to make identification easier in large iSCSI systems. This text is
added to the initiator name, separated from it by a full stop. (You can see the initiator name in
the System Overview page.)
Password
The camera is generally protected by a
password to prevent unauthorized access to the unit.
You can use different authorization levels to limit access.
Notice!
Proper password protection is only guaranteed when all higher authorization levels are also
protected with a password. If a live password is assigned, for example, a service and a user
password must also be set. When assigning passwords, you should therefore always start
from the highest authorization level, service, and use different passwords.
Password
The camera operates with three
authorization levels: service, user and live.
The highest authorization level is service. After entering the correct password, you can access
all the functions of the camera and change all configuration settings.
With the user authorization level, you can operate the unit and also control cameras, for
example, but you cannot change the configuration.
The lowest authorization level is live. It can only be used to view the live video image and
switch between the different live image displays.
You can define and change a password for each authorization level if you are logged in as
service or if the unit is not password protected.

Date/Time
Date format
Select your required
date format.
Device date/Device time
Notice!
Ensure that recording is stopped before synching to the PC.
If there are multiple devices operating in your 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 units are operating on the same time.
1.
Enter the current date. Since the unit time is controlled by the internal clock, there is no
need to enter the day of the week – it is added automatically.
2. Enter the current time or click the Sync to PC button to copy your computer's system
time to the camera.
Note: It is important that the date/time is correct for recording. An incorrect date/time setting
could prevent correct recording.
Device time zone
Select the time zone in which your system is located.
Daylight saving time
The internal clock can switch automatically between normal and daylight saving time (DST).
The unit already contains the data for DST switch-overs up to the year 2018. You can use
these data or create alternative time saving data if required.
Notice!
If you do not create a table, there will be no automatic switching. When changing and clearing
individual entries, remember that two entries are usually related to each other and dependent
on one another (switching to summer time and back to normal time).
1. First check whether the correct time zone is selected. If it is not correct, select the
appropriate time zone for the system, and click the Set button.
2.
Click the Details button. A new window will open and you will see the empty table.
3. Select the region or the city that is closest to the system's location from the list field
below the table.
4. Click the Generate button to generate data from the database in the unit and enter it into
the table.
5. Make changes by clicking an entry in the table. The entry is selected.

White balance
Select the appropriate white balance mode from the drop-down list.
– Basic auto mode allows the camera to continually adjust for optimal color reproduction
using an average reflectance method. This is useful for indoor light sources and for
colored LED light illumination.
– Standard auto mode allows the camera to continually adjust for optimal color
reproduction in an environment with natural light sources.
Note:
This is the default mode for cameras with a current Scene Mode of Indoor.
– Sodium vapor auto mode allows the camera to continually adjust for optimal color
reproduction in an environment with sodium vapor light sources (street lighting).
– Dominant color auto mode takes into account any dominant color in the image (for
example, the green of a football pitch or of a gaming table) and uses this information to
obtain a well balanced color reproduction.
– In Manual mode the Red, Green, and Blue gain can be manually set to a desired position.

RGB-weighted white balance
In an auto mode, RGB-weighted white balance
can be switched On or Off. When On,
additional fine tuning of the automatic color reproduction can be made with the R, G and B
weight sliders.
R-weight
When White balance is in an auto mode, and RGB-weight white balance is On, this field
appears. Adjust the slide for red-gain weight (from -5-0 to +50, with 0 as the default).
Reducing red introduces more cyan.
G-weight
When White balance is in an auto mode, and RGB-weight white balance is On, this field
appears. Adjust the slide for green-gain weight (from -5-0 to +50, with 0 as the default).
Reducing green introduces more magenta.
B-weight
When White balance is in an auto mode, and RGB-weight white balance is On, this field
appears. Adjust the slide for blue-gain weight (from -5-0 to +50, with 0 as the default).
Reducing blue introduces more yellow.
R-gain
In Manual white balance mode, adjust the red gain slider to offset the factory white point
alignment (reducing red introduces more cyan).
G-gain
In Manual white balance mode, adjust the green gain slider to offset the factory white point
alignment (reducing green introduces more magenta).
B-gain
In Manual white balance mode, adjust the blue gain slider to offset the factory white point
alignment (reducing blue introduces more yellow).
