Building on DiBos technology the Recording Station
uses Bosch’s proven video management, recording and
communications technology and takes IP based video
surveillance to a new level. It forms an integral part of
overall security solutions for many applications –
including banks, large retailers, railway stations, city
centers, industrial facilities and office buildings.
With Recording Station you can retrieve live and
recorded video from anywhere in the network.
Whether they are on site or at a remote network
location, authorized personnel have quick, convenient
access to all information making Recording Station the
perfect solution for surveillance over distributed
networks.
Recording Station supports live viewing and recording
at any resolution up to 2048 x 1536 pixels (3
Megapixel) including HD widescreen resolutions. It
manages up to 64 IP video sources (Bosch and 3rd
party) that are compatible to the following video
compression standards:
• Bosch H.264
• Bosch MPEG-4
• Axis MPEG-4
• MJPEG via HTTP and TFTP
• ONVIF camera support
u HD / Megapixel camera support
u Unlimited remote receiver stations
The unique, scalable GUI allows live and recorded
images from multiple remote stations to be viewed
from a single PC (receiver station). With this powerful
function, security managers can monitor and supervise
multiple locations simultaneously even if remote
stations are connected through a WAN.
Each camera offers in-window pan/tilt/zoom
functionality from local or remote facilities. Images are
displayed with date/time, location, camera name and
the status of connected devices such as detectors and
sensors.
Recording Station can be programmed to respond to
specific situations and events automatically. In
response to alarms, the system can be programmed to
record at a higher quality and to transmit images or
messages to security personnel.
Playback is easy thanks to familiar search and
navigation functions using a graphical timeline control.
Users can playback recordings from multiple stations
simultaneously and synchronously on one interface.
Fast, powerful image search functions like the Smart
Motion Search eliminate time consuming manual
searches.
Export the video to an archive with the push of a
single button - all digitally watermarked to ensure the
credibility of your recordings. You can even export

multiple cameras from different recorders. Use the
scheduled export to recurrently backup your
recordings on various storage devices, such as
external disk arrays and NAS (network attached
storage).
To ensure the highest security, all system access is
controlled by multiple user authorization levels which
determine individual permissions for each user to a
very high level of detail. These authorization levels
determine what a user can do in the system. Elements
such as camera viewing and control, playback and
export of recordings, as well the types of system
configuration settings that are allowed can be
individually configured.
Events, such as login, log-off, status changes, image
transmission, video export, and system shutdown are
logged in a database and can be easily imported to
spreadsheet programs like MS Excel. Video
authentication is built-in to detect any attempt to alter
the recorded images.
Recording Station provides various interfaces to other
systems such as Bosch access solutions and alarm
panels, as well as external systems like ATM and POS
terminals, fire alarm systems, number plate capture
equipment and video content analysis solutions.
Integration with other security and building
management systems is accomplished using OPC (OLE
for Process Control). When even tighter integration is
required, our VideoSDK provides you with a complete
toolbox of modules for playback, searching, viewing
and much, much more.
Use Recording Station in a LAN environment with
Bosch Video Management System to advance to a true
enterprise solution which provides a comprehensive
feature set such as centralized user, event and alarm
management, multi-monitor workstations with zoom
able sitemaps and CCTV keyboard control.
For special cases when the customer wants to be
hardware independent we offer a USB dongle that
provides a unique Computer Signature (Dongle ID).
Recording Station still needs to be licensed via a
software authorization and SLMS.
This USB dongle also can be used in case the
Computer Signature changes on every start of
Recording Station caused by for example
• RAID which covers / alters the HDD IDs or provides
an own - mostly cryptically - hardware ID
• Windows 7 / Server 2008 which shows only these
MACs which are actually connected
• Different Windows users which have different
permissions to access PC hardware
