wireless points for installation flexibility with
perimeter and interior control. Supports keypad
points.
The B3512 Control Panel integrates intrusion and
residential fire, providing one simple user interface for
both systems. The B3512 provides up to 16
individually identified points in a single area.
The control panel can communicate through its built-in
Ethernet port (not applicable to “E” control panels), or
through compatible plug-in modules that can send
events over the public switched telephone network
(PSTN) or over cellular network communications.
With the B3512, you can monitor doors, windows, and
motion within areas like showrooms or those that hold
inventory. Each user can have a personalized
passcode, a wireless keyfob, and a credential to
control the system.

Use programmable authority levels with restricted
privileges to provide service, security, and cleaning
personnel with full or limited access. Use the three
programmable outputs to turn on lights or lock and
unlock doors. Users can:
• Turn on the system to secure the stock room while
you conduct daily business.
• Perform tests to ensure your system is working
properly.
• Set your system to alarm immediately if a door opens.
• Activate the Watch feature so a tone sounds
whenever a customer enters.
• Set a schedule for your system to automatically turn
on at closing time.

• Use wireless security options to customize your
system.
Central monitoring stations provide 24-hour system
monitoring with access to vital services. Professional
security personnel can test the system, monitor
system activity, and alert the police, fire department,
or other emergency response teams if necessary.
Functions
Programmable outputs
• Three programmable on-board outputs; one high
current using a relay, and two trigger outputs
• Output A, with a contact rating of 3 Amps, can supply
up to 1.0 A total current from AUX PWR
• Outputs B and C sink up to 50 mA at 12 VDC
• Four alarm-output patterns
• Programmable bell test
System response
• High-performance micro-controller provides industry
leading system response
• 20 custom point indexes
• Selectable point response time
• Cross point capability
• Fire alarm verification
• Dangerous gas indicator includes carbon monoxide
(NFPA 720)
• Watch mode
• A scheduled event (SKED) to perform several
functions, such as turn on (arm) the system, turn off
(disarm) the system, bypass and unbypass points,
and control relays
User interface
• Supervision of up to 4 keypads
• Custom keypad text is fully programmable through
RPS
• Full function menu including custom functions
• Authority by area and 32 character name for each
user
• 14 custom authority levels control user’s authority to
change, add, or delete passcodes to disarm or bypass
areas; and to start system tests
• Programmable primary and secondary language by
user and keypad; select from English, Spanish,
French, and Portuguese
Area Re-Arm
For higher security applications, this feature
guarantees that areas are always rearmed, and are
disarmed for no longer than a specific, configurable,
amount of time (for example, service time).
Custom functions
For added convenience, the installer can program one
custom function. A custom function allows customers
to complete complex tasks with fewer keystrokes. For
example, a custom function can bypass a group of
points and arm the system, allowing the user to
perform this function with one easy command.
Installers can use custom functions to control a
particular room. Customers activate a custom function
with a keypad, with a keyfob, by faulting a point, or
automatically as a scheduled event (SKED).
Passcode security
• Two-man rule. Requires two people with two unique
passcodes to be present at the time of opening.
• Early ambush. Allows users to verify that the facility is
safe by requiring two passcodes. The control panel
sends a duress event if the user does not enter the
passcode a second time after inspecting the
premises.
• Dual authentication. Requires two forms of
identification before processing certain system
commands, including turning off the system and
opening doors. A standard system user must have a
passcode, a credential (token or card), and
appropriate command authority permissions.
Easy exit control
The control panel changes from one On (armed) state
to another without turning off (disarming) the system.
For example, if you change the state from Part On
(Perimeter Arm) to All On (Master Arm), the control
panel complies and reports the change. Easy Exit
Control reduces the number of keystrokes, simplifying
system operation.
Programmable passcode-controlled menu list
Passcode-controlled shortcuts provide users only with
the options and information pertinent to them,
simplifying system operation.
Monitor Delay/Delayed Response
Create a special point index that delays the reaction of
a point for a specified time (up to 1 hour in minutes
and seconds). This delay provides time for the
specified condition to reset before activating any
annunciation. The system can annunciate locally and
send a report, if desired. When the system is armed,
the point can respond like a normal point – providing
dual functionality. Use this feature to ensure that
perimeter doors have not been propped open, or to
monitor critical areas such as computer rooms and
safes, for example.
System users
The system supports up to 10 users. Each user can
have a personalized passcode, a wireless keyfob, and a
credential to control the system. You can assign
passcodes to one of 14 customized authority levels
that can be restricted to operate only during certain
times. Programmable primary and secondary language
by user and keypad; select from English, Spanish,
French, and Portuguese.
Communication formats
The control panel prioritizes and sends reports to four
route groups. Network and phone communications can
use one of two communication formats: Modem4,
Contact ID. Each group has a programmable primary
and backup destination.
Page 3
| B3512 Control Panels

The control panel provides flexible communications for
most central stations with reporting capabilities such
as:
• Individual point numbers
• Opening or closing reports by user and area number
• Remote programming attempts
• Diagnostic reports
IP communication
The control panel can use IP to communicate with a
Conettix D6600 or a Conettix D6100IPv6
Communications Receiver/Gateway. Use one of the
following for IP:
• The on-board Ethernet connection (the on-board
Ethernet port is excluded on “E” versions).
• A B426.
• A plug-in cellular communicator (B440/B440-C/B441/
B441-C/B442/B443/B444).
Conettix IP communication provides a secure path that
includes anti-replay/anti-substitution features, and
enhanced security with up to AES 256-bit encryption
(using Cipher Block Chaining (CBC)).
The control panel supports Domain Name System
(DNS) for both remote programming and central
station communication. DNS provides ease of use,
eliminating the need to use static IP addresses as your
reporting destination, and accommodates a simple
solution for central station disaster recovery. The
control panel supports both IPv6 and IPv4 networks.
Communication paths
The control panel accommodates up to four separate
phone and four separate network paths to the central
station receiver. When resetting alarms or turning a
system on and off, the user is identified by name and
number.
Personal notification
The control panel can send text messages and emails
for personal notification over Ethernet or using a
cellular communicator. You can configure up to 16
destinations using a combination of cellular phone
numbers and email addresses. The control panel sends
notifications in the user’s programmed primary
language.
Bosch Remote Connect (Cloud)
Remote Connect simplifies connections from RPS, and
the Remote Security Control app, using Bosch Cloud
services. This service creates a secure connection to
the control panel without specific router settings or
the need for a static IP address or DNS.
Notice
The Bosch Remote Connect service is not
available in Europe, the Middle East, or Africa.
Firmware updates
The system allows remote firmware updates:
• Control panel updates. Remotely update the control
panel firmware for easy feature enhancements
without replacing ROM chips.
• Module update support. Remotely update the
firmware on connected SDI2 modules for easy feature
enhancements without visiting each individual
module.
Firmware updates occur through Remote Programming
Software (RPS) and the RPS Firmware Update Wizard.
The Firmware Update Wizard uses the on-board USB
connection or the on-board Ethernet (IP) connection
(the on-board Ethernet port is excluded on “E”
versions) to transfer firmware updates.
The control panel can optionally receive firmware
updates from RPS. Use one of the following
communication methods:
Data rate apply
Cellular firmware updates require more time than
Ethernet updates and carrier data rates apply.
A wide variety of input options
Each point:
• Accommodates normally‑open (NO) and
normally‑closed (NC) devices with end‑of‑line (EOL)
resistor supervision.
• Accepts programming for fire, gas, fire supervisory, or
intrusion applications.
• Supports hardwired and wireless devices.
Security and fire detection
The control panel provides 8 on-board points, and up
to 8 additional wireless points. You can program
individual points to monitor burglar alarms, fire
alarms, and supervision devices.
Event log
The event log stores local and reported events. The
event log includes information such as time, date,
event, area, point, and user. View the event log from a
keypad or use RPS to remotely retrieve event
information. When the event log reaches a
programmed threshold of stored events, it can send an
optional report to a receiver.
The log stores up to 127 local and reported events.
Scheduled events (SKEDs)
The internal clock and calendar start a scheduled
event (SKED). A SKED performs functions such as turn
on or off, relay control, or point bypassing.
• One scheduled event with up to 25 different
functions
• Two opening windows and two closing windows
• Two user group windows
• Day-of-week, date-of-month, or holiday only schedules
• One holiday schedule of 366 days (leap year)
Programming
Installers can perform limited programming on-site
with a keypad (critical parameters; such as account
IDs, central station and RPS IP addresses and phone
Page 4
4 | B3512 Control Panels
numbers, reporting formats, and more). They can also
do full programming on-site or remotely (attended or
unattended) with RPS. A programmable system
passcode prevents unauthorized remote programming.
Diagnostics
Keypads and RPS offer diagnostic help for monitoring
and troubleshooting. The diagnostics features allow
you to view the status of the wired and wireless
devices. The features provide the status of the control
panel and its connected devices, such as firmware
version, power, and missing conditions. View the
status of each area.
Remote Security Control app
The Remote Security Control (RSC) app allows users
to control their security systems remotely from their
devices. Users can:
• Turn their security system On or Off
• Turn specific areas On or Off
• Control outputs for applications such as lighting
control
• Grant access remotely by unlocking and locking doors
The app requires the installing dealer to create a
Remote Access Profile for users, and to install the
profile on their devices.
Bosch Video Management System integration
With Bosch Video Management System (Bosch VMS)
and an intrusion system, the VMS operator has a single
user interface to monitor and control the intrusion
system combined with video surveillance. With Bosch
VMS and a control panel, the operator can, for
example:
• View videos triggered by intrusion events, including
all relevant information such as areas, point, and user
show in the display with the event.
• View areas, points, outputs, and doors – with their
statuses – on the Bosch VMS map, providing the
exact location in the system.
• Turn on (arm) and turn off (disarm) areas.
• Bypass and unbypass points.
Requirements to integrate Bosch VMS with a control
panel:
• A licensed Bosch VMS system using Professional
Editions v5.5 or higher or Bosch VMS Enterprise.
• Edition v5.5 or higher.
• Expansion license to integrate the intrusion control
panel. One license needed per control panel. Order
number MBX-XINT-xx for the expansion license added
to a Bosch VMS base license. Refer to the Bosch
Video Management Software product page on the
Bosch website, www.boschsecurity.com.
• Access to Remote Programming Software (RPS).
