3 System Information

3.1 Overview of functions

The camera incorporates a network video server. Its primary
function is to encode video and control data for transmission
over an IP network. With its H.264 encoding, it is ideally suited
for IP communication and for remote access to digital video
recorders and IP systems. The use of existing networks means
that integration with CCTV systems or local networks can be
achieved quickly and easily. Video images from a single camera
can be simultaneously received on several receivers.

3.1.1 Progressive scan

The camera captures and processes progressively scanned
images. When there is fast motion in a scene, progressively
scanned images are generally sharper than interlaced images.

3.1.2 Day/Night function

The Day/Night function provides enhanced night viewing by
increasing the IR sensitivity. The motorized IR filter can be
removed in low-light or IR illuminated applications. The IR filter
switches from color to monochrome automatically by sensing
the illumination level. In auto switching mode the camera
prioritizes motion (the camera gives sharp images without
motion blur) or color (the camera gives color pictures as long as
the light level permits).

3.1.3 Wide dynamic range

A unique combination of 20-bit digital video processing that
enhances sensitivity and 2X-Dynamic which extends the
dynamic range, provides a sharper, more detailed image with
outstanding accuracy in color reproduction. The 20-bit digital
signal is automatically processed to optimally capture the detail
in both the high and low light areas of the scene
simultaneously, maximizing the information visible in the
picture.

AR18-10-B006 | v1.1 | 2010.06 Installation and Operation Manual Bosch Security Systems

Dinion2X IP Camera System Information | en 19

3.1.4 Tri-streaming

Tri-streaming allows the data stream to be encoded
simultaneously according to three different, individually
customized profiles. This creates two full H.264 streams that
can serve different purposes and an additional M-JPEG stream.

3.1.5 ONVIF (Open Network Video Interface Forum)

The camera complies to the ONVIF standard which means that
it is easier to install and integrate into larger systems. The
ONVIF standard is a global standard for the interface of network
video products.

3.1.6 Audio

Two-way duplex audio is available in the unit for live voice
communications or audio recording.

3.1.7 Alarm I/O

The alarm input can be used to control the functionality of the
unit. An alarm output can control external devices.

3.1.8 Tamper detection and motion detectors

The camera offers a wide range of configuration options for
alarm signaling in the event of tampering with the camera. An
algorithm for detecting movement in the video image is also
part of the scope of delivery and can optionally be extended to
include special video analysis algorithms.

3.1.9 Video encoding

The camera uses the H.264 compression standards. Thanks to
efficient encoding, the data rate remains low even with high
image quality and can also be adapted to local conditions
within wide limits.

3.1.10 Multicast

In suitably configured networks, the multicast function enables
simultaneous, real time transmission to multiple receivers. The
prerequisite for this is that the UDP and IGMP V2 protocols are
implemented on the network.

Bosch Security Systems Installation and Operation Manual AR18-10-B006 | v1.1 | 2010.06

20 en | System Information Dinion2X IP Camera

3.1.11 Power-over-Ethernet

Power for the camera can be supplied via a Power-over­Ethernet compliant network cable connection. With this
configuration, only a single cable connection is required to
view, power, and control the camera.

3.1.12 Encryption

The unit offers a variety of options for protection against
unauthorized reading. Web browser connections can be
protected using HTTPS. Protect the control channels via the
SSL encryption protocol. With an additional license, the user
data itself can be encrypted.

3.1.13 Receiver

H.264 compatible hardware decoders can be used as a
receiver. Computers with decoding software such as VIDOS, or
computers with the Microsoft Internet Explorer web browser
installed, can also be used as receivers.

3.1.14 Recording

The camera can be used with an iSCSI server connected via the
network to store long-term recordings.

3.1.15 Snapshots

Individual video frames (snapshots) can be called up as JPEG
images, stored on the hard drive, or displayed in a separate
browser window.

3.1.16 Backup

The browser application has an icon for saving the video images
provided by the unit as a file on your computer's hard drive.
Clicking this icon stores the video sequences and they can be
replayed with the Player from Bosch Security Systems included
with the package.

3.1.17 Configuration

The camera can be configured using a browser on the local
network (Intranet) or from the Internet. Similarly, firmware
updates and rapid loading of device configurations are also

AR18-10-B006 | v1.1 | 2010.06 Installation and Operation Manual Bosch Security Systems

Dinion2X IP Camera System Information | en 21

possible. Configuration settings can be stored as files on a
computer and copied from one camera to another.

3.2 Operation with external systems

The camera can be used with a variety of Bosch software and
hardware systems:
– Bosch Video Management System
–VIDOS video management software
– DiBos 900 Series digital video recorder
– Divar 700 Series digital video recorder

Note:

When connected to any of these systems, many of the camera
configuration parameters are controlled by the system and not
by the settings made via a web browser connected to the
camera.

Bosch Video Management System

The Bosch Video Management System is a unique enterprise IP
video surveillance solution that provides seamless management
of digital video, audio, and data across any IP network. It is
designed to work with Bosch CCTV products as part of a total
video surveillance management system. Integrate your existing
components into one easy-to-manage system, or use Bosch’s
full-line capabilities and benefit from a complete surveillance
solution based on cutting-edge technology and years of
experience.

VIDOS

The camera video server and VIDOS software combine to
provide a high-performance system solution. VIDOS is software
for operating, controlling, and administering CCTV installations
(such as surveillance systems) at remote locations. It runs
under Microsoft Windows operating systems. Its main job is
decoding video, audio, and control data from a remote
transmitter. There are many options available for operation and
configuration when using a camera with VIDOS.

DiBos 900 Series

The camera is also designed for use with DiBos 900 Series
Video Recorders. DiBos can record up to 32 video and audio

AR18-10-B006 | v1.1 | 2010.06 Installation and Operation Manual Bosch Security Systems

Dinion2X IP Camera System Information | en 23

streams, and is available as software or as a hybrid DVR with
additional analog camera and audio inputs. DiBos supports
various functions of the camera, such as controlling relays,
remote control of peripheral devices, and remote configuration.
DiBos can use alarm inputs to trigger actions and, when motion
detection Motion+ is active, can record the relevant cells,
making intelligent motion detection possible.

Divar 700 Series

The Divar 700 Series of digital video recorders can view and
record images from the camera via a network connection. The
Divar 700 Series controls the camera so that the correct
settings are used.

– Connect the camera to a 10/100 Base-T network.
– Use screened UTP Category 5e cable with RJ45 connectors

(the camera network socket is Auto MDIX compliant).

– Power can be supplied to the camera via the Ethernet

cable compliant with the Power-over-Ethernet

(IEEE 802.3af) standard.
The multicolored LED beside the Ethernet connection indicates
Power (red), IP connection (green) and IP traffic (green
flashing). It can be disabled in the Settings/Camera Settings/
Install options menu.
By default, power is supplied to the camera via the Ethernet
cable, compliant with the Power-over-Ethernet standard.

Figure 5.2 Power connection

Connect power from a 24 VAC or 12 VDC class 2 power supply
as follows:
– Use AWG16 to 22 stranded wire or AWG16 to 26 solid

wire; cut back 5 mm (0.2 in) of insulation.

– Loosen the screws of the supplied 2-pole connector and

insert the wires.

– Tighten the screws and insert the 2-pole connector into

the power socket of the camera.

Note:

For a DC supply the polarity is important. Incorrect polarity
does not damage the camera but it will not switch on.

system).
Use the alarm relay output for switching external devices such
as lamps or sirens.
