live images from the camera, control the camera, and replay
stored sequences. The camera is configured over the network
using the browser.
1.1 System requirements
– Network access (Intranet or Internet)
– Microsoft Internet Explorer version 7.0 or higher
– Screen resolution at least 1024 × 768 pixels
– 16- or 32-bit color depth
– Sun 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 the Bosch Video

AM18-Q0611 | v5.50 | 2012.03 Software manual Bosch Security Systems
Camera Browser Interface Browser connection | en 11
1.2 Establishing the connection
The camera 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 camera as the URL.
3. During initial installation, confirm any security questions
that appear.
Note:
If you do not connect, the camera may have reached its
maximum number of connections. Depending on the device and
network configuration, each camera can have up to 25 web
browser connections, or up to 50 connections via Bosch Video
Client or Bosch Video Management System.
1.2.1 Password protection in camera
A camera offers the option of limiting access across various
authorization levels. If the camera 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.
1.3 Protected network
If a RADIUS server is used for network access control (802.1x
authentication), the camera must be configured first. To
configure the camera, 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 camera via the network occur.

5Basic Mode
5.1 Device Access
5.1.1 Naming
Enter a unique name to assist in identification. This name
simplifies the management of multiple devices in more
extensive systems.
The name is used for remote identification, for example, in the
event of an alarm. Choose a name that makes it as easy as
possible to identify the location unambiguously.
5.1.2 Password
A password prevents unauthorized access to the device. The
device has 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.
You can define and change a password for each authorization
level if you are logged in as service or if the camera is not
password protected.
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.
AM18-Q0611 | v5.50 | 2012.03 Software manual Bosch Security Systems
Camera Browser Interface Basic Mode | en 25
Password
Define or change a separate password for each level. 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.
5.2 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. Device time, date and time zone are shown.
Click Sync to PC to apply the system time from your
computer to the device.
Note:
It is important that the date/time is correct for recording. An
incorrect date/time setting could prevent correct recording.

5.3 Network
Use the settings on this page to integrate the device into a
network. Some changes only take effect after a reboot. In this
case, the Set button changes to Set and Reboot.
1. Make the desired changes.
2. Click Set and Reboot.
– The device is rebooted and the changed settings are
activated. If the IP address, subnet mask, or gateway
address is changed, then the device is only accessible
under the new addresses after the reboot.
DHCP
If the network has a DHCP server for dynamic IP address
allocation, set this parameter to On to activate the automatic
acceptance of DHCP-assigned IP addresses.
For certain 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
Enter the appropriate subnet mask for the set IP address.
Gateway address
Enter the IP address of the gateway to establish a connection to
a remote location in a different subnet. Otherwise, this field can
remain empty (0.0.0.0).

6.1 Identification
6.1.1 ID
Each device should be assigned a unique identifier that can be
entered here as an additional means of identification.
6.1.2 Naming
Assign a unique name to assist in identification. This name
simplifies the management of multiple devices in more
extensive systems.
The name is used for remote identification, for example, in the
event of an alarm. Choose a name that makes it as easy as
possible to identify the location unambiguously.
6.1.3 iSCSI 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.

6.2 Password
A password prevents unauthorized access to the device. The
device has 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.
You can define and change a password for each authorization
level if you are logged in as service or if the camera is not
password protected.
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.
6.2.1 Password
Define and change a separate password for each level. Enter
the password (19 characters maximum) for the selected level.
6.2.2 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.
