Installation Environment
CAUTION: Ensure all local safety codes are observed when
installing this product; ensure a strong safety chain is used to
secure the MIC400 camera to prevent any danger of dropping
the product during installation. Particular care should be taken
The MIC400 range has been designed to be easily installed on a variety of
common fittings. Most commonly a dedicated CCTV camera pole is used, the
MIC400 will bolt directly to the top of most poles using the industry standard 4”
(101.6mm) fitting. Such camera poles provide robust mounting platforms that
minimize camera motion and typically have large base cabinets to mount all
ancillary equipment such as power supplies.
The MIC400 cameras can also be mounted on lamp post columns using the Pole
Mount Bracket (MIC-PMB) however users should be aware that lamp posts can
often be subject to movement and are not suitable platforms in all conditions or for
all applications.
For mounting directly onto buildings Bosch Security Systems manufacture a range
of brackets suitable for all typical building installations for upright (90°), canted
(45°) or Inverted camera positions, examples are shown below.

Associated Equipment & Typical Installations
The robust nature of the MIC400 range of cameras make it ideal for installation in
all typical domestic and commercial CCTV applications such as residential homes,
shopping centres, commercial premises, military/ government installations, ports &
airports to name but a few.
The MIC400’s adaptability enables easy integration in a wide variety of mobile and
re-deployable installations these have included Lifeboats & other
surface/subsurface vessels, Emergency service vehicles, Highways Agency
vehicles, Council/Contractor parking enforcement vehicles & Crowd control
vehicles.
The MIC400 uses a composite cable to carry all power & telemetry between the
camera head and the MIC power supply unit this cable can be a maximum of 25m
long, for installations which require the camera head to be more than 25m from the
power supply then it is recommended that a 2m cable be connected to a junction
box from which telemetry; video and power can be broken out into separate cables
and appropriate wiring used to extend the distance to suit.

MIC400 Series Camera | Installation and Operation ManualAAAEN | 13
Earthing of the MIC400 camera
1. The camera module & housing are electrically isolated so the housing
should be safety earthed regardless. The safety earth should be a bonding
connection to the cameras outside case for example one of the securing
bolts.
2. The camera should be earthed at one point only to prevent earth loops &
thus hum bars showing on the control room monitor.
3. If the system is copper throughout & the camera pictures are fed back to
the control room coaxial copper cable, then the camera should be earthed
at the video termination point in the control room & nowhere else. In this
case the PCB “Earth Link” should be broken.
4. If the video is transmitted back to the control room via some non electrical
connecting medium, e.g. fibre optic, radio or microwave link, then the
camera should be earthed at the transmitter point in the psu. The PSU
“Earth Link” may be used for this purpose.
5. If dual earthing is unavoidable then a video isolation transformer should be
fitted between the two earths.
CAUTION: If the camera is mounted ball down it is
essential that the connector and base area of the
camera are completely sealed from water ingress.
CAUTION: Any water getting into the connector is
liable to cause corrosion to the connector pins leading
to unreliable operation of the camera unit.
CAUTION: To prevent water penetrating the composite
cable connector threads, the 25mm thread should be
sealed at final installation using PTFE tape.
Alternatively a suitable sealant may be liberally applied
to the thread prior to final tightening.
Lightning Protection
If the camera is fitted in a highly exposed place then consideration should be given
to lightning protection. A good earth bonding connection to the case itself will
provide protection against damage from secondary strikes.
Where there is a risk of a primary strike hitting the camera housing directly, it is
recommended that a separate lightning conductor be fitted within 0.5m of the
camera and at least 1.5m higher than the camera.
The construction of the housing itself is very capable of coping with secondary
strikes and no damage to the internal electronics or camera should result if correct
lightning protection is applied.
Underwater Installation
The MIC400 series are IP68 rated units, excepting the MIC400PA speakers which
are IP67, this allows complete submersion in water to a depth of 1M. The
MIC400UL and MIC400UT models allow submersion to a maximum depth of 25M
due to the special seals fitted to these models.
Typically the MIC400UL an MIC400UT are mounted inverted on a Deep Conduit
Adaptor fitted to the base, additional sealant or gaskets are applied to the joint of
the camera foot and the Deep Conduit Adaptor to ensure a watertight seal.
A suitable waterproof conduit gland and conduit is then used to carry the
composite cable to the surface for installation in the power supply. Wall Mount
Brackets (MIC-WMB) can also be used to mount the MIC400 underwater following
the same precautions as outlined above.
CAUTION: It is the responsibility of the installer to ensure
the correct water proof conduit glands, conduit and
gaskets/sealants are used for the installation to ensure no
water enters the cameras base and reaches the composite
cable connector. Failure to ensure a water free connector
will lead to corrosion of the camera connecter and to
camera failure. Care must also be taken to ensure that any
sealants used are non toxic to marine life.

Electrical Connections
A purpose built composite cable for use with the camera is available; these cables
are pre-made with a Female terminated 12 way connector fitted to them for
attachment to the Male connector installed into the base of the camera.
The composite cable has no termination (free wires) at the other end for wiring into
the appropriate power supply. The standard colour coding used in these cables is
as shown below.

CHAPTER 3 Power Supply Installation & Setup
The Power Supply Units provide all the support functions for connecting the
MIC400 cameras to third party equipment, they comprise of:
NON-IR Power Supply Units
MIC-240PSU, MIC-24PSU and MIC-115 PSU
The power supply provides power for a single MIC400 non-ir camera unit from
either a 240v AC source (MIC-240PSU), a 24v AC (MIC-024PSU) or a 115v AC
source (MIC-115PSU). The transformer fitted to these designs is a thermally
protected transformer that automatically cuts out if the transformer core
temperature exceeds 40 Degrees C. On cooling the transformer will become
operational again.
In addition the unit provides all the terminations required to connect a MIC400
camera to third party equipment.
A second independent 12v (600mA) power supply is also included to drive any
internally fitted optional interface cards.
Dimensions
Power supply enclosure:-225mm (W) x 70mm (H) x 195mm (D)
The Power Supply Unit provides all the support functions for connecting the
camera to third party equipment. It comprises of:
1) A weather resistant (IP55) plastic box fitted with four cable glands.
2) A power supply for the MIC400 camera.
3) A second power supply for driving various interface cards mounted internally
to the power supply box. e.g. washer drive card, alarm interface card.
4) Provision for a signal interface card, to connect telemetry to third party
equipment.
5) Screw termination of all cable into and out of the box.
6) Correct video termination for the camera coaxial cable.
7) Earth isolation and termination within the unit to correctly control Video
earthing and thus prevent Earth loop.

MIC400 Series Camera | Installation and Operation ManualAAAEN | 15
PCB Earth Link
The PCB has one link option next to HD1 to allow the power supply to be set up for
different earthing schemes: The Earth Link should be broken if there is a separate
connection between video screen and earth. Usually occurs on copper connected
systems where all the copper video coaxes are taken back to the control room to
be connected to a central earth point. If fibre optics or other indirect connections
are used to get data and video to and from the control room then the earth link
should be left intact provided it is the only camera end earth reference point.

MIC400IR Power Supply Units
MIC-IR-240PSU, MIC-IR-115PSU, MIC-IR-24PSU and MIC-IR-12PSU
The power supplies for the MIC400IR cameras are available in a 230v/115v AC
source; a 24v AC source or a 12V DC source
A weather resistant (IP66) box prefitted with four cable glands.
A power supply for the MIC400 camera at 15v AC nominally.
A second isolated power supply for driving the IR illuminators, the operation of this
power supply is controlled by the camera itself via telemetry commands received
from the control room. The power supply operates with twin illuminators; this drive
is a constant current drive which automatically configures itself for IR lamp
operation. There are no adjustable items within the power supply except for the
three links discussed below.
Screw termination of all third party cables into and out of the box.
Correct video termination for the camera coaxial cable.
Dimensions
Power supply enclosure: - 260mm (W) x 90mm (H) x 120 (D)
The power supply provides a circuit for operating a 230v/115v mains driven
washer drive pump and reservoir system.
The power supply also supports 4 volt free alarm contact inputs which can be
made to activate presets within the camera but always notifies the control system
of the status of these alarms, HD2 provides the option for connection up to 4 alarm
inputs to the power supply. These can be tamper switches or inputs from other
sensors/switches.
Earth isolation and termination within the unit to correctly control video earthing
and thus prevent Earth loop.
Setting the Power Supply Link Options
The PCB has three optional links to allow the power supply to be set up for
different installations. If a link change is required this can usually be done with the
PCB in place and setting of links using a soldering iron and TCW link wire. The unit
is supplied with all links fitted. For the following special functions the associated
link should be cut out:
Earth Link 1 (left link) should be broken if there is a separate connection between
video screen and earth. Usually occurs on copper connected systems where all
the copper video coaxes are taken back to the control room to be connected to a
central earth point.
Earth link 2 (right link) should only be cut under special circumstances. This link
ensures that the metal case of the power supply is connected to earth. The
electronics / video screen earthing is controlled by earth link 1. If required a
separate heavy duty earth strap should be fitted to one of the four mounting bolts
on the outside of the box.
230v AC/115v AC Link
230v link should be removed and replaced by two separate links linking the two
pad pairs shown as 115v links if the power supply is to be run from an 115v AC
mains supply.
There are no other adjustable parts on the power supply.
Fuse Ratings
Mains feed to the transformer is protected by FS2 which is rated as a Ceramic fuse
at 600mA quick blow. Depending upon the setting of the links to the right of SK1
the terminal box can be supplied from 230v AC or 115v AC. The ident on the PCB
defines which links should be soldered into the PCB to achieve the desired
voltage. (Factory default is 230v AC).
If there are no other connections to the camera to earth via a locally connected
fibre interface unit or via a video/opto transmission system or some other third
party equipment, then the left Earth Link situated below FS4 should be left intact.

CHAPTER 4
Configuring the MIC400 Camera
Connecting the MIC400 to the PC
The MIC can be connected to a PC’s serial port via a RS232/RS422 adaptor unit;
this will generally be assigned to Comm Port 1.
Suitable serial port adaptor units are the Greenwich RS232/RS422 adaptor unit
(Farnell 778-758, RS No: 201-758), the KK systems K2-ADE RS232 to RS485/422
adaptor or the MIC-USB485CVTR (485 to USB Converter) for PC’s without a serial
port.
Connecting the Greenwich Adaptor
To connect the Greenwich serial adaptor to the PC you will also need a 9 pin D
female to 25 pin D male RS232 compatible adaptor cable. A suitable cable is
Farnell 960-573 or RS Part No: 202-644.
The adaptor should be set to DCE mode and the power supply connected.
Connections from the Greenwich adaptor to the MIC400 power supply are as
follows:

MIC-USB485CVTR and Universal Camset Software Installation
Universal Camset comes with WHQL certified drivers for the MIC-USB485CVTR
that must be installed prior to connecting the converter to the PC.
To install the drivers please do the following:-
1. Locate the USB DRIVERS.EXE in the Universal Camset Folder, double
click to begin and follow the on screen instructions to install; these are the
required drivers for using the MIC-USB485CTR.
2. Locate the CAMSET INSTALLER.MSI and then double click to begin,
follow the on screen instructions to install.
3. Once installed a Universal Camset Icon will appear on your PC Desktop.
4. When opened the Universal Camset will display the Standard Controls
Tab as shown overleaf.
Providing the USB drivers have been installed successfully, you can then plug the
MIC-USB485CVTR into a PC via the USB port. If your converter is being plugged
in for the first time your system should recognise the device and inform you that
the hardware has been installed successfully.
The MIC-USB485CVTR should appear in the Comm Port selection list as USB and
as a virtual Comm Port, e.g “comm2” (for legacy support). Universal Camset has
been optimised to work with this converter in USB mode; therefore users should
select “USB” for maximum functionality and reliability.
The MIC-USB485CVTR has a status LED indicating its current state, by sending a
manual command e.g. Left or Right, you should see the LED flash. Transmitted
data from the converter is indicated by a red flashing LED flash and upon receiving
data a green LED will flash.
Commissioning the MIC400 through Universal Camset
Universal Camset is a Windows PC based configuration software from BOSCH
Group; it is issued free on the CD that comes with each MIC camera. Universal
Camset supersedes all previous versions of Camsets used.
Standard Controls
Universal Camset opens on the Standard Controlstab as shown above; the
highlighted area contains the Boot messaging, MIC settings and Camset Settings
controls.
Bosch Security Systems Issue 1
Page 31
MIC400 Series Camera | Installation and Operation ManualAAAEN | 31
Boot Messages
When the MIC is booted the first line of the messages it sends is the address,
which is read and put into this box automatically.
Configure MIC Communications
This button opens up a new window which provides the options to reconfigure the
MIC communications settings. These options will depend on the MIC model
connected.
The large square text box in this area will display boot messages coming from the
MIC. One of the first lines contains the MIC address which is decoded and entered
into the Address line. The rest of the lines indicate the MIC model number, control
card serial number, MIC Software etc.
At the same time, a boot message is displayed on the video indicating similar
information, which may be helpful if return comms should fail or be incorrectly
connected.
MIC Settings
Current Address
This box indicates the address to which commands are sent from Camset. This
therefore needs to match the address of the MIC that needs to be controlled.
In order for any of these modifications to work, Camset must have full
communications with the MIC. Ensure this by performing a simple manual control
test (Up, Down, etc). To store the new settings press Apply once the modifications
have been made or alternatively press Cancel to discard any changes.
New Address
This input box defines the new address the MIC should change to once Apply has
been clicked. The value will also be copied over into Current Address on the main
form to provide continual control.
New Protocol
The drop down list here provides a full list of the protocols available in Camset.
Control depends upon selecting the correct protocol in the drop down list to match
the protocol that is loaded onto the MIC400; if the incorrect protocol is selected in
Camset the MIC may not respond. To regain control should this happen, reset the
Camset Protocol back to what the MIC originally was.
Bosch Security Systems Issue 1
Page 32
MIC400 Series Camera | Installation and Operation ManualAAAEN | 32
New Baud Rate
This drop down list will provide the valid baud rates for the chosen protocol. The
baud rate options reflect the protocol as set on the main form for Camset itself. In
FV protocol the option is a toggle which simply switches the MIC between 4800
and 9600. If control is not present after the window is closed, try changing the
Camset Baud Rate.
Reset MIC
This sends out a command to reboot the software. This is not a hardware reboot;
the only way to do that is to remove the power supply to the MIC.
Camset Settings
The Camset Settingssection as shown above control the Protocol, MIC model,
Baud Rate and Comm Port used; select the appropriate parameters for your
MIC400 from the dropdown menus.
Some functions in Universal Camset may not be supported by particular protocols;
any incompatible functions will be greyed out if it is not supported in a given
protocol.
The communication settings will be set to the default for the chosen protocol,
indicating this on the Camset Baud Rate drop down list.
MIC Model
This provides a list of all the available MIC Models. This should be set to the type
of camera being controlled as Camset is then set up accordingly to provide more
or less options dependant upon the combination of this setting with the Camset
Protocol above.
Comm Port
This provides a list of the available Comm Ports detected by the software on the
PC. If a comm port is in use when it is selected the user will be prompted with an
error, and should either select another port or close the application currently using
it. If the MIC-USB485CTR, USB to RS485 convertor is being used, when plugged
in this will show on the Comm Port drop down menu as USB, simply select to use.
The final option is close which will close any open communications port meaning
that other applications can then use the port for other purposes.
Camset Baud Rate
This displays the current Baud Rate at which outgoing messages are sent, and the
other options available for the given protocol above. Changing this without first
changing the MIC baud rate will cause a loss of communications.
RTS
This defines the state of the RTS line on the serial port which can be used power
in line RS232 to 485 adapters.
Comms Mode
There are 3 available options for comms modes:
Full Duplex: Full 2 way 4 wire communications connection. Messages are
and received on the same pair of wires. The 485 drivers deal wih the switching of
the line directions automatically.
Simplex: 1 way 2 wire communications connection. Messages are only transmitted
to the camera. This will work for most manual controls, but anything that requires a
response, such as Pot Test, Exact Positioning, Programming etc will fail.

Auxiliaries
Preset Positions
Slow Zoom: Reduces the speed at which the MIC zooms.
PTZ Scale: Scales the MIC speed dependant on zoom position.
Wiper: Turns on or off the MIC wiper if fitted.
Washer: Activates the washer relay on the MIC-WKT card or the MIC-ALM card if
fitted in the PSU. This also moves the MIC to the stored WashWipe position and
turns on the wiper. Once de-activated the MIC will return to its original position and
turn off the wiper.
IR / Thermal: Dependant on the MIC this will do one of 3 things, for a Non-IR
Standard MIC the IR cut filter will come in and the image will go black and white.
For a twin IR MIC, the cut filter will come in and the lamps will turn on.
Note: If the lamps do not turn on, ensure the power supply is an IR version and
that Auto Alarm and Multi Alarms in the MIC Setup tab are both turned on.
For a MIC412, the video output will switch from the Sony module to the thermal
module; the controls on the Thermal tab will also now function.
Digital Zoom: This will enable the MIC to continue into the digital zoom once the
optical limit has been reached. This also needs to have Digital Zoom Enabled
under the MIC Setup tab.
Auto Pan: This will start the MIC panning between left and right defined limits.
On Screen Data: This activates the Sony modules on screen icons.
Preset positions are locations stored by the MIC in Pan, Tilt and Zoom, Focus etc,
which can be either called back manually, or returned to as part of a preset
position tour.
To learn a position move the MIC to the desired location and then either enter in
the preset number in the box available or press the Preset Number button until it
displays the desired value. Then press the Learn button to store. Once stored the
value in the input box will be cleared.
Returning to a position uses the same number entry method and then press the
Go To instead.
The Learn All Presets button will set every preset position available for the given
protocol to the current position. This may take a few seconds.

Tour Controls
Tours provide a way of making a MIC continually move to points of interest within
its visible range. There are 2 different methods to enable this; Preset Tours recalls
preset positions in the set order waiting at each for a desired dwell time while
Pattern Tours mimic the operator’s movements whilst recording so it can follow a
defined path.
Access to these methods is entirely protocol specific, meaning if it is shaded out,
the feature is not supported. In some cases there are up to 6 tours available.
Preset Tours
To save a preset tour, simply enter the end preset number into the input box and a
corresponding dwell time and press Program Tour. This initiates a simple tour with
each steps preset position being fixed and the dwell time constant across the tour,
stored to the Tour Number. More comprehensive program methods are normally
available through the control system.
The Tour Number selects the tour to which you save and also play from. The Start
Tour button initiates the current programmed sequence for the given Tour Number.
Pattern Tours
Depending on the protocol, the controls for these vary. Some fully implement the
recording functionality and in these cases the Start Recording and Stop Recording
buttons are used, with user manual control in between. This is again stored to the
Tour Number as set.
Other protocols use an add point method, where Start Recording and
Stop Recording are used in the same way, but instead of manual control in the
middle Add Tour Point is used to insert a preset position with the options specified
Preset, Dwell and Speed.
Soft Stops and Non Dwell Zones
This feature offers a method of restricting the MIC's movements to a certain area.
A "box" is defined using the Top Left and Bottom Right buttons which provides the
area within which the MIC is allowed to move. To clear the area set both corners to
the same location.
Non-Dwell Zone
This provides the opposite of Soft Stops, in that an area can be defined within
which the MIC cannot stop. The area is defined and cleared in the same way using
the Top Left and Bottom Right buttons. Once the MIC enters the area it passes
straight through to the opposite edge.
Clear
This button clears both the Soft Stops and the Non-Dwell Zone, which is required
after a MIC has its protocol re-flashed (see Programming section).

MIC Setups
General Settings
The MIC Setups tab contains the basic camera controls such as General Settings,
Multi alarms (if MIC-ALM card is fitted), Relays, AutoHome options and the Default
Settings.
Pan Reverse
This will invert the pan rotation of the MIC compared to the commands from the
controller. This would be used if a MIC was inverted to regain logical control.
Tilt Reverse
This will invert the tilt rotation of the MIC compared to the commands from the
controller.
Image Flip
This manually inverts the image from the camera module, which may be used on
an inverted camera where the head cannot be rotated through 180 degrees.
Inverting the image would normally also require some modification of the control
directions.
Bosch Security Systems Issue 1
Page 37
MIC400 Series Camera | Installation and Operation ManualAAAEN | 37
Wash Wipe
If Wash Wipe is On then, when the Wash auxiliary is set the MIC will return to a
preset Wash Position activate the washer relay in the PSU and turn on the wiper.
When the auxiliary is turned off again, the MIC will return to its prior position and
turn the wiper off. If Wash Wipe is Offthen when the aux is activated the MIC will
simply close the washer relay and remain in its current position.
Auto Alarm
This is used for both single and multi alarm functionality. With Auto Alarm on and
Multi Alarm off, the MIC will monitor the tamper switch line, moving to the
programmable Alarm Position when the connection is grounded. If Auto Alarm is
turned off the MIC will ignore any change in status of the tamper line.
Multi Alarm
With this the user can setup a separate position for each of the 8 alarm inputs. Any
given alarm input will trigger the MIC to move to the position with which it is
associated. To get this functionality working both Auto Alarm and Multi Alarm
should be turned on.
Photocell IR
This mode enables the user to attach an external photocell to the power supply to
control the IR lamps. The device is connected to alarm input 4, meaning that when
the light levels drop sufficiently alarm 4 is triggered, and instead of moving the MIC
detects this as an activation signal for the lamps. When the light levels pick up
again, the alarm will deactivate and the lamps will be turned off. This mode can
enable the user to hide the sensor away from any large external lighting which may
cause the camera to flick in and out of IR mode under Auto conditions.
Camera Power
This can be used to turn the camera module inside the MIC off as required.
Digital Zoom
This is an override for the Digital Zoom Auxiliary, meaning that if On this will allow
digital zoom to be controlled by the aux state, but if off, will never allow digital
zoom no matter what the state of the aux.
Auto Flip
With this enabled the MIC will pan through 180 degrees as it reaches the vertical
position so the user can then tilt down the other side meaning the MIC video is
never inverted. Once the rotation is complete the controls are reversed until a stop
command is received, at which point they are returned to normal.
Auto IR
In this mode the camera module is monitored for its current IR state, as soon as
the light drops sufficiently, the module will automatically put the cut filter in place
and switch to black and white, at which point the MIC will turn on the IR lamps.
Auto Lowlight
If this is turned on, the MIC will decrease its shutter speed as the light levels drop,
rather than increasing the gain. Motion blur on the video can occur if the frame rate
drops sufficiently low, which may not be ideal for a camera which is continually
moving. However if motionless, the images will not have the grain associated with
lowlight conditions. The gain at which a change is made and the lowest frame rate
can be controlled under the Frame Integration section.
Auto Home Controls
After a programmable time with no manual control the MIC can be configured to
either, move to the home position (Preset 1) or start tour / pattern 1. With Auto
Home turned off the MIC will simply remain stationary until the next user input.
The amount of time before this takes place can be set using the input boxes and
the Set Time button.

Other controls
Default Settings
Learn Wash Position
This is the position that the MIC will return to when the Washer Auxiliary is
activated and Wash Wipe is turned on. This should point towards the washer jet
nozzle.
Learn Alarm Position
This is the alarm position for the tamper switch. The MIC will return to this position
if Auto Alarm is turned on, Multi Alarm is turned off and the tamper line in the PSU
is pulled to ground.
Find End Stops
This will get the MIC to rotate in the tilt axis first down then up to its mechanical
limit stops. It will then store a "soft" limit a few units back from these for normal
use. During this process manual control is not available.
Show Boot Message
This will display the boot message that appears on the video for a few seconds,
this may be helpful to determine the current software of the MIC, without having to
do a full reboot.
Self Diagnosis
This function is for future products and does not work with the MIC400 or MIC412.
The Default Settings tab reads and sets settings from the following sections:
- Manual Control Auxiliaries
- General Settings
- Auto Home Controls
- Multi Alarm Settings
- Lens Recalibration
- Frame Integration Settings
- All Thermal controls
All other settings will not be saved, loaded, downloaded or set through the
following controls.
Get Current MIC Settings
This downloads the current status of each of the settings from the MIC and loads it
into the text boxes and radio buttons on Camset. This provides an easy way of
viewing the current setup of each MIC and also a way of copying the settings from
one into the next.
Bosch Security Systems Issue 1

Save Current MIC Settings
This option will first prompt for a file location and then store the current state of all
the options outlined above to an XML file which can then be loaded at a later date
back into Camset as a standard for a specific site.
Load Settings into Camset
This will prompt to open an XML file as saved above. Only valid Camset Default
XML files will work.
Set Current Settings to MIC
This will go through each of the settings above except for thermal, and send out
the commands to the MIC to set it up as Camset displays. This may take a few
seconds as there are several commands involved in this process.
Upload Default Options
At the end of this there are 2 extra options for defaults, Clear SS and NDZ will
clear any saved Soft Stops and Non-Dwell Zones and then Find End Stops. These
options may be used to completely set up a MIC after it has been reprogrammed
to a new protocol.
Multi Alarm Settings
Learn Alarm Positions
Simply point the MIC400 at the position you would like it to cover when each
numbered alarm is triggered and press Learn Alarm Position to set this.
Relay State, Activation and Re-arm
This function is available only to MIC-400’s with the MIC-ALM card fitted or the
MIC400IR Power Supply which has Four (4) Alarm Inputs built in.
The MIC-ALM multi alarm card provides 2 output relays which can be configured to
close or open on given alarm inputs. Relay 1 can be activated from either alarm
inputs 1 to 4 or 1 to 8 and relay 2 with alarm inputs 5 to 8 or 1 to 8.
Bosch Security Systems Issue 1
Page 40
MIC400 Series Camera | Installation and Operation ManualAAAEN | 40
The re-arm time is a time in seconds before the MIC returns to its current position
and returns the relay to its prior state. The options for this are 1, 5, 10 or 60
seconds. To send the settings to the MIC select the desired options and then press
Set Relays.
Lens Recalibration and Frame Integration
Privacy and Captions
This section defines when and how often the Sony Optical Camera block should
perform a recalibration process. The first field Inactivity defines how long in hours it
should be after the last manual control command before the first recalibration
should take place, and the second is a time in days between each successive
recalibration from then on.
To set these enter the appropriate values in the text boxes provided and press
Apply. Alternatively the Recall Now button will perform a manual recalibration.
Frame Integration Settings
This section defines the Max Gain and Min Shutter Speed parameters used by the
MIC when in Auto Lowlight mode. The drop down lists provides the actual settings
available in dB for gain and FPS for shutter speed. The On Screen Data auxiliary
command will indicate the current frame rate if required. The values are set by
simply selecting the desired option from the drop down lists.
The Privacy and Captions tab allows the user to define and set the privacy mask
function if the optional privacy card is fitted; this is not applicable to the MIC400 as
the privacy card cannot be used with the thermal imager.

Privacy Controls
Masks On / Off
This is an override setting to turn masks completely On or Off. This will not clear
each individual masks settings, so when Off is sent they will disappear and then
re-appear with On, in the same positions.
Crosshair On / Off
This setting makes a crosshair appear on the video display centered on the middle
of the video. This can then be used to set individual mask pixels with the
appropriate command from below.
Show / Clear Mask Style
This setting provides a preview of the current mask style. This will only work if the
Crosshair is turned On. It will show a small privacy block to the right of the
crosshair center. If nothing appears, the mask may be clear, so use the Set Mask
Style to change to a visible setting. Once the required style has been selected;
press Clear Mask Style and Crosshair Off, to return to the normal state.
Mask / Clear Whole Screen
These functions will add or remove a privacy mask the size of the entire current
view. Moving the MIC in Pan or Tilt should then indicate the zone clearly. This
would most commonly be used in conjunction with zoom where a window can be
made full frame and then the whole thing masked as apposed to the method below
which may take significantly longer.
Mask / Clear Pixel
This is a more accurate way of creating privacy masks one pixel at a time. The
Pixel is created at the center of the image, or where the crosshair points if it is
visible.
Set Crosshair
This will create a pixel sized mask as with the function above, and will also bring
up the crosshair. Press again to remove the crosshair or use Crosshair Off.
Set Mask Type
If Crosshair and Mask Style are both turned On this function can be used to step
through each of the available mask types one at a time. This will not update all the
masks to the same type, only the ones that are created subsequent to the change.
Load Factory Defaults
Clears the current Privacy masks and resets the privacy card to the factory
defaults.
MIC Configuration
These options define the MIC's orientation, which defines how the masks track. for
Inverted MICs, the head would normally be rolled around through 180 degrees,
with Pan Reverse On to regain sensible control. However, with inverted IR MICs,
the head cannot be rotated around due to the IR Lamp arms, and therefore the
video must be inverted, and both controls reversed.
Basic Calibration
This sends a set of default commands to the MIC to initialize the privacy for an
upright MIC. This will not be perfect as each board needs fine individual calibration
but provides a good starting point.
Zoom Alignment
The zoom alignment buttons provide accurate calibration of the mask tracking.
This would normally be carried out by using a vertical line of mask on along a
known straight edge. If this line then moves as the MIC pans and tilts, it can be
corrected using the appropriate arrow. The labels indicate the current value in both
the Vertical and Horizontal planes, which will be incremented or decremented
dependant upon the direction pressed.
Direct Command
All privacy commands consist of 2 Hex bytes, a command byte and a data byte.
These perform all of the privacy functions available. To enter commands, enter the
2 bytes in Hex, into the boxes provided and press Send Command. Entering
random commands here may result in very odd results so please do not use
unless under specific instruction.
Save Current Settings
Once any calibration changes are made, this button should be pressed to save the
new values permanently.

CAUTION: The Privacy Calibration settings should be
configured at manufacture and should therefore not need to
be changed on site.
Any changes to these settings may be difficult to correct, so
please do not attempt to change anything unless under
instruction from Bosch.
Save Current Settings
Once any calibration changes are made, this button should be pressed to save the
new values permanently.
Captions
The Captions tab allows the user to set up captions, Sector or Preset Captions;
Screen Location and Caption Colour are all user definable.
The MIC has 3 different caption options available. On the MIC 400 model range
only one line of text is available and therefore a Preset Caption will overwrite a
Default Caption.
The Default Caption can be treated as the name of the camera. It will appear on
the video whenever it can, i.e. when no Preset or Sector captions are selected.
Preset Captions can be used to display a different title for each of the preset
positions available. This will be loaded once the MIC has reached the position.
As an alternative, the same 64 captions can be used, not for preset positions but
for rotational sectors. The MIC’s pan is split into 64 segments and a different
caption can be assigned to each or to a group. Using this option can result in an
occasional slight control lag.
Bosch Security Systems Issue 1
Page 43
MIC400 Series Camera | Installation and Operation ManualAAAEN | 43
Whatever caption is being set the writing must be entered into the Caption Text
Box. The caption will be displayed in block capitals and only certain extra
characters are recognised. Unknown characters will be displayed as "?".
Location and Colour
These options define where on the video and in what colour the caption will be.
Set Default Caption
This programs the current caption (if valid), position and colour settings to the
default caption. If captions are turned on this should appear immediately on the
video.
Toggle Captions On / Off
This setting is a global On / Off setting for captions. If Off then no captions will be
displayed, Default, Preset or Sector.
Toggle Sector / Preset
This toggles between the 2 caption modes of Preset or Sector. These options are
mutually exclusive.
Preset Captions
This section provides 3 options, to either set one preset caption to the preset
number specified in the input box. Set all 64 presets to the same caption, or clear
all 64 preset captions to nothing.
Sector Captions
This section allows the definition of the sectors and what caption to use for each.
First the Caption Number is entered which corresponds to a preset caption, then
the start and end of the group in terms of an individual sector. Press Set Sector
Info to store the data.
Thermal
The Thermal tab controls the function of the FLIR thermal imager in the MIC412
only; this screen has no function with a MIC400 Camera.

Advanced Settings
both in degrees and a percentage respectively. If the MIC reaches 70% humidity
inside the head a small "H" is displayed in the top left corner indicating a Humidity
problem. If this appears, make contact with Bosch Security Systems.
Timers
The timers monitor most of the common functionalities of a MIC: Panning, Tilting,
On Tour, Since Built, Stationary, Wiping and IR Lamp shown in Weeks, Days,
Hours, Minutes and Seconds.
Clear All Statistics
This function will set Max and Min for temperature and humidity to the current
reading, and will clear all of the timers to "0". This feature should only be used
when a MIC is first built or repaired, and therefore is locked out with the Advanced
Controls Password.
MIC Serial Number
This feature is used to set or read the actual MIC Serial Number. This may be
required to reprogram the MIC through the telemetry. The Set function is locked
The Advanced Settings tab offers engineering and special auxiliary control modes
for Pelco and Panasonic protocols (see Help file for details).
The MIC stores various statistics about itself, including temperature and humidity,
and various timers for different parameters, which may be of interest to the end
user, but are mainly implemented as an engineering tool.
Temperature and Humidity
This will only work if the MIC400 has the appropriate control card with the
temperature and humidity sensor attached. Current, Max and Min are displayed for
out with the Advanced Password as this should only be performed at the
manufacturing stage, however read is available to use as required.

EEPROM Copier
Remap Auxiliary (Pelco Only)
This feature can be used to download the complete EEPROM block from the MIC
to a file and then upload it to another. This will port across every single setting
stored in the MIC, thus making a mirror copy when loaded into the next. Everything
except for the privacy calibration will be transferred as this is stored separately on
the privacy card itself. Before using this feature ensure you are aware of the
consequences, in that all preset positions will be changed to the ones stored in the
file, same with the Sonyset table and finally the MIC address will also be copied.
Once uploaded, Camset will prompt to reboot the MIC which will then load the new
settings into the MIC.
If any errors occur in the download or upload process then do not attempt to
upload a half complete file, retry the process until it works fine.
Download EEPROM To File
This will prompt for a file location of type ".epm". If valid then the process will begin
with the current status indicated on the progress bar. The file stores each data byte
and its address in memory. These files should not be edited under any
circumstances.
Upload EEPROM From File
This will prompt for a ".epm" file to open, again if valid the process will begin and
the progress bar will show the current progress.
This section provides the option, for MIC400s with Pelco protocol only, to modify
what aux the MIC actions for a given aux number input.
Pelco has 8 aux commands available and the MIC functions that can be mapped
to them are as follow:
- Auto Focus
- Digital Zoom
- Auto Exposure
- IR
- Wiper
- Washer
- OSD
- Backlight
To modify an aux mapping, simply select the desired function and aux number
from the list boxes and press Set. The default button will assign the functions in the
order as above to aux's 1 through 8.

POT Test
Matrix Controls
The options here provide controls for a Forward Vision Matrix. The Enable and
Disable Alarm buttons will take the number provided in the upper input box, and
perform the specified function on that alarm input.
The Watch button can be used to change the input channel on a Matrix (1 to 16) to
the value specified in the lower input box.
The POT Test tab is used as an engineering tool to determine the MIC's position,
Motor PWM, Motor Speed in both Pan and Tilt, and the PSU level inside the MIC.
All the results are plotted onto a continually updating graph on the page and the
current results shown in numeric values below. This process requires a reliable 2
way communications link with the MIC.
Bosch Security Systems Issue 1

Pot Test Controls
Pot Test Results
Start
This initiates the Pot Test process. Continual commands will be sent requesting
the MICs current data, the responses will be decoded and data printed and plotted
on the display.
Stop
This stops the process running. Pot Test is also stopped when another tab is
selected to ensure communications aren't held up when trying to perform an
operation from another page.
Clear Trace
This will clear the graph plotted and reset the cursor to the left hand side of the
picture box.
Manual Controls and Presets
These work as per the controls on the Standard Controls page although instead of
stopping when released the MIC will continually move until a separate stop
command is sent. The numeric key pad controls also work whilst in pot test
although the learn preset method using the number keys does not.
Pan / Tilt Pos
These indicate the current position in Pan and Tilt in Red and Blue respectively,
over the range of 4096 units for 360 degrees rotation.
Pan / Tilt PWM
These indicate the current PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) of the motor, with Pan
and Tilt being indicated in Green and Purple respectively. This gives an indication
of how hard the motors are working.
Pan / Tilt Speed
These results are the actual speed that the MIC is moving in either axis. The
results are not plotted on the graph only shown in the respective window.
PSU Level
This reading shows the Voltage level of the main power rail in the MIC. There are 2
scaling options for different control cards, as a guide 6E came into production
around mid 2007, so anything after this would use this option.
Bosch Security Systems Issue 1

Comms
The Comms tab enables the user to monitor the communications to and from a
MIC or any other serial device connected to the open comm port. This requires 2
way comms for any of the associated options.
Log Communications
This check box enables or disables the capture of incoming and outgoing data to
the text display. With the Communications Grabber running the comms to and from
the MIC will be slightly slowed down, which may be very noticeable on features
such as Pot Test, so unless specifically required it would be advised that this is
turned off.
Capture in ASCII
This changes the way in which the data is displayed. If not checked then the data
is displayed in comma separated Hex bytes (e.g. 54, 45, 53, 54), if it is checked
then each byte is converted into its corresponding ASCII char (e.g. TEST).
However this only works if the protocol sends out valid ASCII bytes, all other
values, less than 32 and over 127 will result in a "?" being printed.
Assume New Message after 50mS
This is a way of separating out consecutive commands and individually time
stamping them. If there is a 50mS gap between transmitted or received bytes then
the next byte is taken as a new message.
Time Stamp Data
If checked then each new packet will be titled with the date and time of
transmission or reception, otherwise the data will just be indicated with a Transmit
or Receive tag.
Clear Comms
This simply clears the current communications window.
Save Data to File
This will prompt the user for a file location where the comms can be saved. They
will be output as a ".doc" file formatted in the same way as display in the window,
which can be opened in Microsoft Word.
Send Direct Command
This feature enables the user specify an exact command in Hex bytes to send to
the MIC. The long input box is used to enter the command in individual comma
separated Hex bytes, without the header or CS.
Bosch Security Systems Issue 1
Page 49
MIC400 Series Camera | Installation and Operation ManualAAAEN | 49
For example a complete Learn Preset 1 command in FV protocol is:
0A 30 31 30 41 36 4D 30 31 80
The header on this is:
0A 30 31 30 41 36
and the checksum:
80
So to transmit the same command the input box should read:
4D, 30, 31
Any variation on this will cause an error to be flagged indicating why the command
is wrong. Once written the command is sent using the Send Now command.
Communications Testing
Communications Testing enables the user to test the quality of the
communications link to the MIC. This does require 2 way comms for any of the
below options. Use the Cancel button at any time to stop the testing process.
MIC Comms
To initiate, select the MIC Comms radio button and press Test. This will repeatedly
query the MIC for a set response the number of times of which is defined by the
Test Repetitions input box. If the response is valid and within the correct time
frame then it is logged as a pass. No response or a late response is flagged as a
time out and short or incorrect data is classed as a fail. The results of this are
continually displayed in the small window directly below the Test button. Any faults
along the length of the comms lines will normally result in fails or timeouts
dependant on the severity of the problem.
Cam Comms
Starting this is as with MIC Comms but by selecting the Sony Cam Comms radio
instead. So long as the MIC Comms are 100% reliable this will return the reliability
of the comms to the Sony Module inside the MIC, again returning passes, fails and
time outs in the same frame. If these are intermittent, please contact Bosch
Security Systems for advice.
Alarms
This test monitors the state of the 8 alarm inputs if applicable, printing if they are
turned On or Off continually throughout the test in the larger of the 2 results
windows. The test is started by selecting Alarms from the options and pressing
Test.
Detect All MICs
This sends out a request to each MIC address for its Software Version printing the
Response and the respective address in the large results box. This can be used in
conjunction with setting a site of multiple MICs all to address 0 (random address)
to then find what address each is on and therefore regain control.

available relating to 10 complete camera setups.
The Sonyset tab shows the controls required for Creating, Loading, Saving,
Uploading and Downloading SonySet tables in FV protocol only.
A MIC can store 10 Sony Set tables, each containing 10 separate camera controls.
This means that a complete setup for the camera module (shutter speed, gain
level, effect etc) can be saved and loaded back at any time through an input from
the user. These can therefore be used to define certain camera states for different
positions or requirements of an installation, for example, one could be set up for
normal running auto everything, and another set-up for ANPR, with a specified
frame rate and gain etc.
Get Preset from MIC
This process will query the MIC for the table number as specified in the SonySet
Preset Number list. Each valid command and value will be shown in the table. If
any data is incorrect or the command does not exist the Sony Command column
will display "Invalid". It is not advised to reprogram a MIC with any "Invalid"
commands.
Send Preset to MIC
This will read through the entire table checking for valid commands and respective
values indicating any discrepancies, and then form the commands to send the data
to the MIC. The data is stored to the preset number as indicated in the SonySet
Preset Number in list.

Execute this Preset
This will send a command to the MIC to read the commands from the preset
number in SonySet Preset Number list in memory and send them on to the Sony
module. This will only send commands stored not the ones in Camset, so to test a
Setup first use Send Preset to MIC then Execute this Preset.
Load Table from File to MIC
It is also possible to Load a complete table of all 10 presets directly into the MIC
from a file. This will prompt the user to open an XML file containing all of the
information required. The information will not be displayed in the table display, it
will simply be sent straight to the MIC.
Save Table from MIC to File
This creates the files that can be used by the feature above. First it will prompt for
a file location to store and if valid, poll the MIC for each command of each preset
and store all of the information to an XML file.
Using the Save and Load file functions as above means it is possible to copy a
complete SonySet table from one MIC to another to easily setup a site with the
same configuration.
Clear Table
This clears the table in Camset and will not do anything to the data stored at the
location in memory in the MIC itself. To clear a MIC table, use this function and
then Send Preset to MIC.
The SonySet Table
The table on the right of the form indicates the current state of one of the presets.
The first column Sony Command indicates the command type for each of the 10
steps in each preset. The Option column indicates the current value for the chosen
command, (e.g On or Off) or if the command is a direct set type, this will indicate
the range available and the result is displayed in column 3, Value.
A full list of available commands and values is shown below.
Changing any of the Sony Commands will invoke the corresponding Option to also
change and take on the top value in the list of available options, therefore clearing
the previous setting from memory. If the command type requires a numeric input,
the corresponding Value box will indicate the lower bound of the range, which can
then be changed to any valid value.

If only a few commands are utilised on the list then the rest should be set to "End"
which will display "N/A" in the option column.

MIC Programmer
To change a protocol loaded into a MIC400 please do the following:-
1. Connect the MIC400 to a PC running Universal Camset as described on
page 27, check the MIC400 is communicating correctly with Camset; this
can be checked using the Comms function.
2. Use the Browse button to locate the new .MOT file you wish to upload to
the MIC400.
3. In the Security Code section, enter the MIC serial number in the
appropriate field; click the Generate Security Code button. The security
code will now be created.
The MIC programmer allows users to change the protocol of the MIC400 camera
unit; you must have the protocol file (.MOT) you wish to upload available, these are
available on the CD with the MIC or from Bosch Security Systems.
CAUTION: Ensure you have the correct version and software
for your MIC400. Uploading the wrong software may cause
the MIC400 to function incorrectly. If you are unsure of which
version you require, please contact Bosch.

MIC400 Series Camera | Installation and Operation ManualAAAEN | 54
4. Check the programming controls are correct, the default settings are
usually correct and do not typically require adjustment. Error checking can
be enabled to ensure an error free installation but this result in longer
loading times.
8. Open the MIC Setups tab and clic the Load Settings into Camset button
5. Click the Upload File to MIC to begin the upload, the status of the
connection and progress of the upload will be displayed on the panel to
the right hand side. The programmer will complete the upload, perform
error checking then disengage automatically when finished, alerting the
user when completed.
6. The MIC400 will now be loaded with the new protocol, camera control
should be enabled immediately when the new protocol is selected under
the Standard Controls tab but may require a reboot of the camera or
closing and reselecting the USB in the comm port dropdown menu.
7. After programming a MIC the status of the settings can be undefined,
therefore it is good practice to reset them to the factory defaults then make
any modifications required for the specific installation.
9. The open dialog should automatically display the “MIC Defaults“ directory
in the Camset Install location from which the File “MIC Production
Defaults.xml” can be loaded. This will setup all the Universal Camset
controls as per the factory defaults for the MIC.
10. Then click Clear Softstops and NDZ and Find End Stops tickboxes.
11. Finally click the Set Current Settings to MIC, the MIC will then perform the
Endstop test and will slowly rotate to find the endstops, the whole process
should take about a minute after which the MIC is ready to use the new
protocol.
