5.2 Device Access
5.2.1 Camera name
The camera can be assigned a name to assist in identifying it.
The name simplifies the management of multiple devices in
more extensive systems.
The camera name is used for remote identification, for example,
in the event of an alarm. Enter a name that makes it as easy as
possible to identify the location unambiguously.
5.2.2 Password
A password prevents unauthorized access to the device. The
device recognizes 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.
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.
Password
Define and change a separate password for each level while
logged in as service or if the device is not protected by a
password. Enter the password for the selected level.
AR18-09-B003 | v1.1 | 2010.05 Installation and Operation Manual Bosch Security Systems
IP Camera 200 Series Basic Mode | en 27
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 you plan to assign a password at another
level.
5.3 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.
As the device time is controlled by the internal clock, it is not
necessary to enter the day or date of the week. These are set
automatically. The time zone in which the system is located is
also set automatically.
1. Click Sync to PC to apply the system time from your
computer to the device.
Note:
It is important to ensure that the date/time is correct for
recording. An incorrect date/time setting could prevent correct
recording.

5.4 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 available
under the new addresses after the reboot.

allocation, set this parameter to On to activate the automatic
acceptance of DHCP-assigned IP addresses.
Note:
Certain applications (for example, Bosch Video Management
System) use the IP address for the unique assignment of the
device. If using these 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).
