1.1 Important safety instructions
Read, follow, and retain for future reference all of the following safety
instructions. Heed all warnings on the unit and in the operating instructions
before operating the unit.
1. Cleaning - Unplug the unit from the outlet before cleaning. Follow any
instructions provided with the unit. Generally, using a dry cloth for
cleaning is sufficient, but a moist fluff-free cloth or leather shammy may
also be used. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners.
2. Heat Sources - Do not install the unit near any heat sources such as
radiators, heaters, stoves, or other equipment (including amplifiers)
that produce heat.
3. Water - Do not use this unit near water, for example near a bathtub,
washbowl, sink, laundry basket, in a damp or wet basement, near a
swimming pool, in an outdoor installation, or in any area classified as a
wet location. To reduce the risk of fire or electrical shock, do not
expose this unit to rain or moisture.
4. Object and liquid entry - Never push objects of any kind into this unit
through openings as they may touch dangerous voltage points or shortout parts that could result in a fire or electrical shock. Never spill liquid
of any kind on the unit. Do not place objects filled with liquids, such as
vases or cups, on the unit.
5. Lightning - For added protection during a lightning storm, or when leaving this unit unattended and unused for long periods, unplug the unit
from the wall outlet and disconnect the cable system. This will prevent
damage to the unit from lightning and power line surges.
6. Controls adjustment - Adjust only those controls specified in the operating instructions. Improper adjustment of other controls may cause
damage to the unit. Use of controls or adjustments, or performance of
procedures other than those specified, may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
7. Overloading - Do not overload outlets and extension cords. This can
cause fire or electrical shock.
8. Power cord and plug protection - Protect the plug and power cord from
foot traffic, being pinched by items placed upon or against them at
electrical outlets, and its exit from the unit.
9. Power disconnect - Units with or without ON/OFF switches have power
supplied to the unit whenever the power cord is inserted into the
power source; however, the unit is operational only when the ON/OFF
switch is in the ON position. The power cord is the main power disconnect device for switching off the voltage for all units.

10. Power sources - Operate the unit only from the type of power source
indicated on the label. Before proceeding, be sure to disconnect the
power from the cable to be installed into the unit.
– For external power supplied units, use only the recom-
mended or approved power supplies.
– For limited power source units, this power source must
comply with EN60950. Substitutions may damage the unit
or cause fire or shock.
– For 9-12 VDC units, voltage applied to the unit's power
input should not exceed 12.3 VDC. User-supplied wiring
must comply with local electrical codes (Class 2 power levels). Do not ground the supply at the terminals or at the
unit's power supply terminals.
– If unsure of the type of power supply to use, contact your
dealer or local power company.
11. Servicing - Do not attempt to service this unit yourself. Opening or
removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
12. Damage requiring service - Unplug the unit from the main AC power
source and refer servicing to qualified service personnel when any damage to the equipment has occurred, such as:
– the power supply cord or plug is damaged;
– exposure to moisture, water, and/or inclement weather
(rain, snow, etc.);
– liquid has been spilled in or on the equipment;
– an object has fallen into the unit;
– unit has been dropped or the unit cabinet is damaged;
– unit exhibits a distinct change in performance;
– unit does not operate normally when the user correctly fol-
lows the operating instructions.
13. Replacement parts - Be sure the service technician uses replacement
parts specified by the manufacturer, or that have the same characteristics as the original parts. Unauthorized substitutions may cause fire,
electrical shock, or other hazards.
14. Safety check - Safety checks should be performed upon completion of
service or repairs to the unit to ensure proper operating condition.
15. Installation - Install in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions
and in accordance with applicable local codes.
16. Attachments, changes or modifications - Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer. Any change or modification of the
equipment, not expressly approved by Bosch, could void the warrantee

3.1 Introduction
NWC-0700, NWC-0800 and NWC-0900 are megapixel resolution
IP cameras capable of delivering crisp, low-noise images at a
video frame rate.
NWC-0700 is a 2-megapixel resolution camera having maximum
resolution of 1600 by 1200 and achieving a maximum frame
rate of 24.
NWC-0800 is a 3.1-megapixel resolution camera having maximum resolution of 2048 by 1536. It is typically viewed at 1920
by 1200 resolution with the frame rate up to 20.
NWC-0900 is a dual-sensor, day-night camera featuring a 3.1megapixel color sensor paired with a 1.3-megapixel monochrome sensor sensitive to near infrared illumination. When the
scene is well illuminated, the 3.1-megapixel sensor is selected
to deliver color images of up to 2048x1536 pixels. To provide
seamless transition between day and night modes, the color
sensor is set to default resolution of 1920x1200 pixels. In lowlight conditions, NWC-0900 can automatically switch to the 1.3megapixel (1280x1024) monochrome sensor, enabling the
delivery of clear imagery at illumination levels as low as 0.01
lux. NWC-0900 typically delivers 20 fps in day mode and over
30 fps in night mode.
All cameras are equipped with LAN connector and can deliver
image data at a maximum data rate of up to 55 Mbps. Images
are sent over the network in a compressed Motion JPEG format
using TFTP protocol with the supplied software or using HTTP
protocol with DiBos8.
Power for all cameras can be supplied via DC jack (+9 V to
+12 V) or Power over Ethernet.
CAUTION! Medium risk:
Never supply power via the Ethernet connection (PoE) when
!
power is already supplied via the power connector.
All cameras feature:
–Automatic exposure (AE) and Gain (AGC) control
– Automatic backlight compensation
– Automatic multi-matrix white balance
– 50/60 Hz selectable flicker control
– Electronic pan, tilt, and zoom (PTZ)
