1.4Important Safety Instructions
Read, follow, and retain all of the following safety instructions. Heed all warnings on the unit
and in the operating instructions before operation.
Caution!
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, DISCONNECT THE POWER SOURCE WHILE
INSTALLING THE DEVICE.
Caution!
Installation must be made by qualified personnel and conform to ANSI/NFPA 70 (the National
Electrical Code® (NEC)), Canadian Electrical Code, Part I (also called CE Code or CSA C22.1),
and all applicable local codes. Bosch Security Systems, Inc. accepts no liability for any
damages or losses caused by incorrect or improper installation.
Warning!
INSTALL EXTERNAL INTERCONNECTING CABLES IN ACCORDANCE TO NEC, ANSI/NFPA70
(FOR US APPLICATION) AND CANADIAN ELECTRICAL CODE, PART I, CSA C22.1 (FOR CAN
APPLICATION) AND IN ACCORDANCE TO LOCAL COUNTRY CODES FOR ALL OTHER
COUNTRIES. BRANCH CIRCUIT PROTECTION INCORPORATING A 20 A, 2-POLE LISTED
CIRCUIT BREAKER OR BRANCH RATED FUSES ARE REQUIRED AS PART OF THE BUILDING
INSTALLATION. A READILY ACCESSIBLE 2-POLE DISCONNECT DEVICE WITH A CONTACT
SEPARATION OF AT LEAST 3 mm MUST BE INCORPORATED.
Warning!
ROUTING OF EXTERNAL WIRING MUST BE DONE THROUGH A PERMANENTLY EARTHED
METAL CONDUIT.
Warning!
THE CAMERA MUST BE MOUNTED DIRECTLY AND PERMANENTLY TO A NON-COMBUSTIBLE
SURFACE.
–Do not place a canted (45°) camera upright; it can fall over easily. Place the canted
camera on its side.
–Do not open the camera unit. Doing so will invalidate the warranty.
Use common-sense safety precautions, especially in situations where there could be risk of
injury if any part of the assembly becomes detached and falls. Bosch recommends using the
hinged DCA, which allows installers to “hang” the MIC camera temporarily on the DCA to
make electrical connections, before bolting the camera to the DCA.
–Ensure that the unit case is properly earthed. If the product is at risk of being struck by
lightning, ensure that earth bonding connections are made correctly to the mounting of
the base of the unit.
–Do not point the camera at the sun. Bosch Security Systems will not be liable for any
damage to cameras that have been pointed directly at the sun.
–Before transporting, supply power to the camera and rotate the ball so that the window
points toward the base. This will help to protect the wiper and the window during transit.
Do not manually back drive the camera
The motor/gear head combinations used in the MIC cameras were designed to provide
smooth pan/tilt movement of the camera during powered operation. The gear heads were not
specifically designed to be manually “back-driven” under any circumstance.
Although it might be possible to do so on unpowered units, there is no guarantee that “backdriving” will be possible on every unit. Some units may even enter a “locked-up” mechanical
state.
If the camera becomes “locked-up,” simply apply power to the camera. The pan/tilt functions
of the camera should now operate properly.
Warning!
Moving parts!
Moving parts may result in risk of injury, therefore, the device should be mounted so that it is
accessible only to the technician/installer.
Notice!
Always use a shielded twisted pair (STP) connection cable and a shielded RJ45 network cable
connector where the camera is used outdoors or the network cable is routed outdoors.
Always use shielded cables/connectors in demanding indoor electrical environments where
the network cable is located in parallel with electrical mains supply cables, or where large
inductive loads such as motors or contactors are near the camera or its cable.
Notice!
Bosch recommends the use of surge/lightning protection devices (sourced locally) to protect
network and power cables and the camera installation site. Refer to NFPA 780, Class 1 & 2,
UL96A, or the equivalent code appropriate for your country/region, and to local building
codes. Refer also to the installation instructions of each device (surge protector where the
cable enters the building, midspan, and camera).

the wiper moves one to three times across the camera window, and then returns to parked
position.
5. Configure the camera. Refer to Configuration for details.
Notice!
If you change the camera orientation to “Inverted” (from the page Configuration of the web
browser: Camera > Installer Menu > Orientation), then the camera head will rotate
automatically into inverted position (180°). Note that the visor will now be near the body of
the camera.
6. Disconnect the wires/cables from the connectors in the base of the camera.
