Installation of a MIC440 Camera
This chapter provides an overview for the installation of a MIC440 camera.
Caution!
The MIC440 camera is designed for use with flammable gases and vapors covered by
apparatus groups IIA, IIB and IIC and with temperature class T6. The product is certified for
use within the ambient temperature range of -20 °C to +60 ºC and must not be used outside
this range.
While a MIC440 camera is certified for installation in a hazardous area, its power supply unit
(PSU) is not. The PSU itself can be installed in either a non-hazardous area or in a hazardous
area. If installed in a hazardous area, the PSU must be placed inside a certified enclosure that
is certified for use in hazardous areas.
Warning!
ROUTING OF EXTERNAL WIRING MUST BE DONE THROUGH A PERMANENTLY EARTHED
METAL CONDUIT.
Mounting the Conduit Gland and Cable
The MIC composite cable (8 mm) required to connect the MIC440 to its power supply consists
of two pairs (24AWG) plus 4 cores of (22 AWG), 2 cores of (24 AWG), and one coax core for
the video signal to a maximum distance of 25 m.
Warning!
Bosch recommends connecting the cable to the unit before taking the unit for mounting onsite.
To mount the conduit gland and cable, follow these steps:
1.Remove the 4 x M8 Hexagon bolts holding the conduit adapter (DCA) to the MIC440 unit.
Remove the DCA.
2.Fit the unterminated ends of the composite cable through the 20 mm threaded gland hole
in the DCA. Allow approximately 100 mm of free cable on the inside to connect to the 12-
way cable connector.
3.Screw the Exd conduit gland into the DCA, maintaining approximately 100 mm of cable
on the inside of the DCA to enable the cable connector to be inserted freely into the MIC
unit base connector.
4.Connect the 12-way cable connector into the matching connector in the base of the MIC
unit.
5.Ensure that the connector is fitted properly in the camera’s integral plug. Turn the socket
thread ring approximately two and a half turns to fasten the two halves of the connectors
together properly.
6.Bolt the DCA onto the MIC440 unit; tighten the 4 x M8 hexagon bolts.
7.Ensure that there are no trapped cables.
8.Ensure that there is some slack cable in the DCA, then tighten and seal the Exd barrier
gland per the instructions included with the gland. The unit with the cable tail is now
ready for on-site installation.

Caution!
Any junction box or enclosure used for mounting the power supply or separating cable cores
MUST BE appropriately rated for the installation. MIC PSU enclosures are not Exd rated and
must be placed inside a certified enclosure if installed within a hazardous area.
For additional protection in hazardous area installations, suitable metal conduit must be used
externally for the composite cable run to connect the power supply to the Exd conduit gland
(not supplied) in the Deep Conduit Adapter (MIC-DCA).
18en | Installation of a MIC440 CameraMIC440 Explosion-protected Camera
Installation of the PSU within a hazardous area must have the standard PSU enclosure placed
inside an appropriate certified enclosure and four (4) Exd conduit glands (NOT supplied). The
power supply PCB is usually re-housed, by a third party company, within an Exd enclosure
which is then factory certified and shipped to site. Follow all manufacturers’ instructions when
installing a third party Exd enclosure.
The figure below illustrates a typical installation of both a MIC440 and a MIC PSU in a
hazardous area. Note that the PSU is installed inside an enclosure that is certified for use in

All connections (power, telemetry, video) to the MIC camera are provided through the screw
terminal connections in the MIC power supply. MIC shielded composite cables are multiconductor cables of various lengths (and gauges ranging from 14 - 18) that provide all power,
video, and telemetry connections between the MIC PSU and the MIC camera. The cables are
pre-made with a female terminated connector (12-pin) at one end for attachment to the male
connector installed into the base of the camera. The other end of the cables has free (nonterminated) wires for wiring into terminals in the MIC PSU. The composite cable consists of
two pairs (24AWG) plus 4 cores of (22 AWG), 2 cores of (24 AWG), and one coax core for the
video signal to a maximum distance of 25 m.
Notice!
Bosch Security Systems does not recommend using the shielded composite cable for
distances greater than 25 m between the MIC camera and the MIC power supply.
For installations that require the camera to be more than 25 m from the power supply, Bosch

Video output signal conforms to CCIR PAL or NTSC 1V Composite format. Telemetry signals all
conform to the RS-485 / RS-422 standard. The unit continuously monitors incoming telemetry
whether in full or half duplex mode.
In full duplex mode, the Tx pins are tri-state except during transmission times. This may cause
problems when interfacing to some fiber optic converter units. Check out the Commissioning
notes for ways of overcoming these problems. In 2 wire Half Duplex mode (RS-485), the Rx
pins are used to transmit data to the MIC440.
The washer connections can be used to operate a relay in the power supply unit, which in turn
can activate a pump.

Mounting Location Overview
MIC Series cameras are designed for easy installation in various locations such as directly onto
buildings and dedicated CCTV poles. Bosch sells a complete series of mounting brackets
designed to allow the camera to achieve the optimal field of view.
The most common type of mounting location is the top of a dedicated CCTV pole that provides
a robust mounting platform that minimizes camera motion and typically has a large base
cabinet for mounting ancillary equipment such as power supplies.
The camera can also be mounted on the side of a lamp post, pole, or similar column using the
Pole Mount Bracket (MIC-PMB). Be aware that lamp posts can often be subject to movement
and are not suitable platforms in all conditions or for all applications.
Other locations for mounting the camera include the top of a building, the side (wall) of a
building, the corner of a building, and under the eave of a building.
The three figures directly below illustrate the arrangement of mounting brackets for installing
a MIC camera. The camera (not shown) is attached to the bowl of the MIC-WMB.

Select the Mounting Location
1. Select the mounting location.
Select a secure installation location and mounting position for the device. Ideally, this is a
location where the device cannot be interfered with either intentionally or accidentally.
Ensure that the location has the appropriate clearance from power and lightning conductors,
in accordance with NEC725 and NEC800 (CEC Rule 16-224 and CEC Section 60).
Do not install the device near:
–Any heat sources
–Any overhead power lines, power circuits, or electrical lights, or where the device may
contact power lines, circuits, or lights
4Ensure that the selected mounting surface is capable of supporting the combined weight
of the camera and mounting hardware (sold separately) under all expected conditions of
load, vibration, and temperature.
Notice!
MIC cameras must be secured to one of the following surfaces:
- Concrete (Solid/Cast)
- Concrete Masonry Unit (Concrete Block)
- Brick (all types)
- Metal (Steel/Aluminum, minimum 1/8-in. thick)
7.3
Caution!
Risk of lightning strikes
If the camera is installed in a highly exposed location where lightning strikes may occur, then
Bosch recommends installing a separate lightning conductor within 0.5 m (1.6 ft) of the
camera and at least 1.5 m (4.9 ft) higher than the camera. A good earth bonding connection
to the camera housing itself will provide protection against damage from secondary strikes.
The camera housing itself is constructed to cope with secondary strikes. If the correct
lightning protection is applied, then no damage to the internal electronics or camera should
result.
Mounting Orientation
2. After selecting the mounting location, select the appropriate mounting orientation.
MIC Series cameras are designed to be mounted upright (straight up, 90°) or inverted
(straight down, 90°). See the figures below for illustrations of the correct and the incorrect
mounting orientations of MIC cameras.

Mount the Camera
To mount a MIC Series camera, follow these steps:
Warning!
Ensure not to damage the paint work on the housing of the camera or the mount.
1. Carefully lift the camera to the mounting location.
2. Connect the female cable connector end (12-pin) of the shielded composite cable to the
male plug in the base of the camera. Screw the cable connector sleeve onto the plug until it is
secured firmly (approximately four (4) turns from the start of thread engagement).
28en | Earthing the CameraMIC440 Explosion-protected Camera
9
Earthing the Camera
Earth the MIC Camera to metal on or attached to the mount.
Warning!
The camera must be earthed / grounded to meet EMC immunity standards.
Earth the camera using one of the supplied securing bolts. Only earth the camera at a single
point to prevent earth loops and video distortion (hum bars), caused by electrical
interference, from appearing on the camera picture in the control room. Please note:
–The camera module and housing are electrically isolated, so the housing should be safety
earthed regardless. The safety earth should be a bonding connection (for example, one of
the securing bolts) to the camera housing, or should be attached to the Earth terminal
post on the PCD base of the camera.
–If the system is copper throughout and the camera pictures are fed back to the control
room via coaxial copper cable, then the camera should be earthed only at the video
termination point in the control room. In this case, the "Earth Link" on the PCB should be
broken. Refer to Earth Link on PCB, page 30.
–If the video is transmitted back to the control room via some non-electrical connecting
medium (for example, fiber optic, radio, or microwave link), then the camera should be
earthed at the transmitter point in the power supply unit. The PSU "Earth Link" may be
used for this purpose.
–If dual earthing is unavoidable, then a video isolation transformer should be fitted
between the two earths.

Finalize Camera Mounting
Warning!
It is essential that the connections and the base of the camera are completely sealed from
water ingress. Any water getting into the connector is liable to cause corrosion to the
connector pins, leading to unreliable operation of the camera unit. This is especially
imperative for a camera mounted in inverted orientation.
1. To prevent water ingress, seal the threads of the securing bolts using PTFE tape (not
supplied). An additional gasket or suitable silicone sealant can be applied liberally to the
threads prior to final tightening to ensure a watertight seal between the base of the camera
and the mounting surface.
2. Use M8 x 20 mm stainless steel nuts, bolts, and washers to secure the base of the camera
to the mounting surface.
3. Tighten all bolts securely.
4. Secure all cabling and conduit.
Caution!
The upright unit can be mounted either with the camera ball up or down. So that the picture
from a camera installed with the camera ball down appears properly, rotate the camera tilt
axis 180°. For more information, see Configuring the Camera for Inverted Operation, page 44.

Install the MIC Power Supply Unit (PSU)
MIC PSU Overview
Caution!
Use only the power supply specified for your specific model of camera.
Bosch provides a range of power supply units (PSUs) for MIC Series cameras. These units
have a variety of common voltages and provide all the connections needed for power,
telemetry and video.
Warning!
These power supply units are NOT explosion-proof and must be installed outside of the
hazardous environment.
Each MIC PSU provides all of the connections needed for power, video, and telemetry for a
single MIC camera. Each MIC PSU has CE and FCC approval and has a cast-aluminum
enclosure that is weather-resistant (rated IP65). Features include:
–A provision for driving various optional interface cards mounted internally to the MIC
power supply enclosure (for example, an 8-input alarm card (MIC-ALM))
–A provision for a signal interface card (MIC-BP4) to connect telemetry to Bosch Biphase
equipment
–Screw termination of all cables (composite, telemetry, and ancillary) into and out of the
enclosure
–Earth isolation and termination within the unit to control video earthing correctly and
thus prevent earth loops
Each MIC PSU ships with the following parts:
–Three (3) M12 cable glands for telemetry, video and ancillary equipment
–One (1) M16 gland for connection of the shielded composite cable to the MIC camera
–One (1) 1/2 in. NPT cable gland for the power cable connection
–One (1) 1/2 in. NPT and one (1) M12 blanking plug
The transformer fitted to these designs is thermally protected and 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
MIC440 camera to third party equipment. A second, independent 12v (600mA) power supply
is also included to drive any internally fitted optional interface cards.
11.2
2013.11 | 8.1 |Operation ManualBosch Security Systems, Inc.
Earth Link on PCB
The printed circuit board (PCB) of each MIC PSU (IR and non-IR) has one Earth Link option,
near terminal block HD1, to allow the PSU to be set up for different earthing schemes:
–If there is a separate connection between video screen and earth, the Earth Link should
be broken. This usually occurs on copper-connected systems where all of the copper
video coaxes are taken back to the control room to be connected to a central earth point.
–If fiber 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, as long as it is the only
camera-end earth reference point.

Installation Instructions (Power Supply)
Danger!
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
To reduce the risk of electrical shock, disconnect power before opening or working on any
power supply unit. Power must be disconnected before replacing any fuse in the MIC PSU.
Power supply units have power supplied whenever the power cord is inserted into the power
source.
MIC PSUs have a separate internal shield covering the power cable input terminal block
(HD1). Only suitably qualified persons should remove this shield and connect the mains power
cable. The shield MUST be re-installed and fully secured before connecting the power.
The power supply cable shall have conductors of a maximum size of 12 AWG.
Branch circuit protection incorporating a 15 A, 2-pole, listed circuit breaker or branch rated
fuses are required. A readily accessible 2-pole disconnect device with a contact separation of
at least 3mm must be incorporated externally to the equipment.

Connection Overview
Connecting and configuring MIC cameras
To configuration and operate/control the camera, you will need a computer, either an RS-232
to RS-485 adapter or a USB to RS-485 adapter, and the MIC Series Universal Camera Setup
Software (“Camset”). The Camset software is provided on the CD that comes with each
camera. Refer to the Universal Camera Setup Software User Guide for details.
Typically the RS-232/RS-485 adapter is connected to a serial port on a computer. The port will
generally be assigned to Comm Port 1.
If your computer does not have a serial port, you can use the MIC-USB485CVTR2 converter to
connect to the MIC power supply, or you can use the camera’s on-screen menu function.
Connecting the USB to RS-485 Converter
Connecting the USB to RS-485 Converter
Figure 13.1: MIC-USB485CVTR2 (USB to RS-485 signal converter)
The MIC-USB485CVTR2 is a USB to RS-485 signal converter that allows computers without a
serial port to connect directly to the MIC camera via the telemetry header connection (HD4) in
the power supply using standard twisted pair cable such as Belden 8760. The MICUSB485CVTR2 can also be used to connect a PC to any other RS-485 device. The converter is
usually mapped to Comm port 3 or 4.The MIC-USB485CVTR2 has been designed to work with
all functions in Universal Camset and to be backwards-compatible with legacy versions of
Camset, although full compatibility is not guaranteed. Refer to the MIC Series USB485CVTR2
User Guide for more details.
The figure below illustrates how the screw terminal connections on the MIC-USB485CVTR2

Cleaning MIC440
The MIC440 features an automatic cleaning cycle to ensure proper operation during daily use.
The cleaning cycle occurs every 24 hours, based on a user-defined setting in Camset.
During the cleaning cycle, the camera initiates a full-speed pan rotation in one direction, stops
the rotation, then starts a full-speed pan rotation in the other direction. During the cleaning
cycle, only some functions are available and the camera closes the Iris so that no picture is
visible. The cleaning cycle interrupts any previous activity (for example, tours, autopan,
sequence, scan), but will not interrupt an alarm condition. Once the cleaning cycle is
complete, the camera returns to its previous activity, and the pan, tilt, iris, and focus settings
are returned to the position they were in before the cleaning cycle began.
Cleaning Cycle Operation
The entire cleaning cycle takes approximately three (3) minutes and is divided into three
phases:
–Pre-cleaning Phase: This phase starts 60 seconds before the first cleaning phase. During
the Pre-cleaning Phase, an operator can delay the cleaning cycle for five (5) minutes or
can cancel this instance of the cleaning cycle.
2013.11 | 8.1 |Operation ManualBosch Security Systems, Inc.
Page 55
MIC440 Explosion-protected Camera
–Cleaning Phase A: This cleaning phase consists of one (1) minute of full-speed pan
rotations (approximately 12 rotations) in one direction and a rotation stop. During
Cleaning Phase A, an operator can delay cleaning by five (5) minutes or can cancel this
instance of the cleaning cycle.
–Cleaning Phase B: This cleaning phase consists of one (1) minute of full-speed pan
rotations (approximately 12 rotations) in the direction opposite to that used in Cleaning
Phase A. During Cleaning Phase B, an operator can cancel this instance of the cleaning
cycle.
Note: If a cleaning cycle time is not set in Camset, the first cleaning cycle starts 24 hours after
the initial power up. Refer to the section below for setting the cleaning time in Camset.
Setting the Cleaning Cycle Time
An operator can set the time for the cleaning cycle using Camset version 4.11 or later. (To
download the latest version of Camset, navigate to www.boschsecurity.com.)
The cleaning cycle start time is entered using a 12-hour clock; the default time is 1:00:00 AM.

Running the Cleaning Cycle
During the three cleaning phases, an operator can use the Focus or Iris buttons located on the
Camset Standard Control window or from a keyboard connected to the MIC440.
1.The on-screen display shows the following message 60 seconds before the start of the
cleaning cycle:
CLEANING IN X SEC (where X is the number of seconds before the cleaning cycle starts)
2.During the 60-second Pre-cleaning Phase, the operator can:
–Press the Focus Near or the Focus Far button to hide the Pre-cleaning Phase
message. Note: This action does not delay the cleaning cycle.
–Press the Iris Open or the Iris Close button to delay the Pre-cleaning Phase for five
(5) minutes. The Pre-cleaning Phase stops and then restarts after five (5) minutes.
–Once the Pre-cleaning Phase restarts, press the Iris Open or the Iris Close button
again to cancel this cleaning cycle.
3.If the cleaning cycle is not cancelled, Cleaning Phase A begins and the camera starts the
first full-speed pan rotation. The on-screen display shows the following message:
xx/120 (where xx is the elapsed time of the cleaning cycle in seconds)
4.During Cleaning Phase A, the operator can:
–Press the Iris Open or the Iris Close button to delay cleaning for five (5) minutes. The
cleaning phase stops and the Pre-cleaning Phase restarts after five (5) minutes.
–Once the Pre-cleaning Phase or Cleaning Phase A restarts, press the the Iris Open or
the Iris Close button again to cancel this cleaning cycle.
5.If the cleaning cycle is not cancelled, Cleaning Phase B begins and the camera starts the
second full-speed pan rotation in the opposite direction. During Cleaning Phase B, the
operator can:
–Press the Iris Open or the Iris Close button to cancel this cleaning cycle.
6.Once the cleaning cycle is complete, the camera returns full control to the operator and
the camera returns to its previous activity.
Delaying or Canceling the Cleaning Cycle
An operator can delay the cleaning cycle for five (5) minutes or can cancel the current
instance of the cycle.
–To delay the cycle, press the Iris Open or the Iris Close button during the Pre-cleaning or
Cleaning Phase A.
–To cancel the cleaning cycle, press the Iris Open or the Iris Close button again, after the
delay, during the Pre-Cleaning, or during the Cleaning Phase A. Pressing Iris Open or Iris
Close during Cleaning Phase B also cancels the cleaning cycle.
