The Bosch Video Recorder 670 Series is an 8/16
channel digital recorder that uses the latest H.264
compression technology. With the supplied PC
software and built-in web server, the 670 Series is a
fully integrated, stand-alone video management
solution that's ready to go, straight out of the box.
Available with a variety of storage capacities, the
670 Series features a highly reliable embedded design
that minimizes maintenance and reduces operational
costs. The recorder is also available with a built-in DVD
writer.

System Overview

The 670 Series takes advantage of H.264 video
compression technology to dramatically reduce the
amount of storage and bandwidth needed while still
producing a better image quality. The 670 Series
records multiple video and audio signals while
simultaneously providing live multi-screen viewing and
playback. Comprehensive search and playback
functions provide quick recall and viewing of recorded
video.

Recording

Ease of use is a key feature of the 670 Series design.
Simply connect the cameras, apply power, and the
unit begins recording automatically. All recording takes
place in the background with no operator intervention
required.
The use of H.264 compression reduces the file size of
recordings by as much as 30% compared to standard
MPEG-4, without sacrificing image quality. The
670 Series can record at up to 25 (PAL) / 30 (NTSC)
images per second, per channel at 4CIF resolution.
If required, alarm recordings (input and motion) and
continuous recordings can be split over two partitions.
An overwrite mode can then be selected separately for
each partition.

Dome Control

The 670 Series can control pan/tilt/zoom (PTZ)
equipment via RS‑485/ RS‑232 serial communications.
PTZ devices, including the Bosch AutoDome and a
number of third party domes, are supported.

Alarms

All models have extensive alarm handling functions
and telemetry control. Alarm functions include local
inputs and relay outputs as well as motion detection in
user-defined areas. In addition, the 670 Series can
send an e-mail notification with a short video clip on
alarm.

Local control and operation

The unit can be easily operated and programmed via
the on-screen display menu system using the front
panel control keys, the mouse, an IntuiKey Series
keyboard or the supplied remote control. Two monitor
outputs provide full-screen, quad, multi-screen and
sequenced viewing.
Looping auto-terminating video inputs and outputs,
audio inputs and output, and alarm inputs and outputs
are located on the rear panel.
Two video connectors provide an output for monitor A
(main monitor default set to VGA) and monitor B (spot
monitor default set to HDMI). Monitor A displays live
and playback in full-screen, quad or multi-screen
pictures that can be frozen and zoomed. Monitor B
displays live full-screen, quad or multi-screen pictures.

Remote control and operation

Use the PC software or built-in web application via a
network for live viewing, playback, and configuration.
The PC application software can also be used with
other Bosch products including the 400 Series and the
700 Series. Four users can control the 670 Series
simultaneously.
The 670 Series includes an authenticity check for both
local and remote playback, ensuring recording
integrity. The 670 Series Archive Player is provided for
playback of secure video files.

Mobile Devices

A Bosch DVR viewer App for Apple iOS devices is
available for live viewing and PTZ control. This App lets
you watch live video from cameras connected to the
DVR from anywhere in the world. If a PTZ camera is
connected, you can control focus, pan, tilt and zoom.
Additionally, Real Time Streaming Protocol (RTSP) is
supported in the 670 Series. This means that live video
streamed from the unit over the internet can be
displayed by suitably configured mobile devices.
