The AutoDome 600 Series is an easy to install PTZ
camera that delivers superb video in all indoor and
outdoor applications. The camera features day/night
functionality for high quality images in low light conditions. This discrete, high-speed dome camera ensures
reliable, uncompromised functionality in diverse environments across various applications.
AutoDome 600 Series highlights
The AutoDome delivers state-of-the-art technology and
features that far exceed other PTZ cameras. The cameras achieve a high horizontal resolution of 550 TV
lines enabling the reproduction of clear and detailed
images.
Wide Dynamic Range
The AutoDome features Wide Dynamic Range (WDR)
technology that allows for the capture of clear images
from both bright and dark areas in the same frame.
WDR ensures that bright areas are not saturated and
that dark areas are not too dark.
Progressive scan
The AutoDome camera is ideally suited for moving
imaging applications. The progressive scan technology
incorporated into the camera provides smooth and
clear images when viewing images from a moving camera.
Sodium vapor lamp white balance
The AutoDome is an exceptional performer when
shooting under a sodium vapor lamp (a street lamp or
tunnel lamp, for example). Images under these conditions may have a yellowish tint, which may make identification difficult. In the Sodium Vapor White Balance
mode, the AutoDome automatically compensates for
the light from a sodium vapor lamp to restore objects
to their original color.
System Overview
The AutoDome 600 Series offers variable pan and tilt
speeds, and the AutoPivot feature ensures optimal
camera control and viewing at all zoom levels. These
high-performance zoom autofocus cameras incorporate the latest digital imaging technology with excellent sensitivity and resolution. With 99 user-defined
presets as well as tour and AutoPan modes, The AutoDome 600 Series is not small on features.
The AutoDome 600 Series adds real intelligence to
your video surveillance applications. Equipped with
AutoTrack II, Bosch’s award-winning motion tracking
software, built-in image stabilization, motion detection, and a sophisticated alarm handling “rules” engine, the AutoDome 600 Series incorporates advanced,
intelligent video features unmatched by any other camera system.

The AutoDome 600 Series supports standard and optional video and data transmission methods, including
Bilinx (over coax and UTP) and fiber optic. Remote
control, configuration, and firmware updates can also
be performed over these cables, offering you unparalleled control of your cameras. Cable compensation
provides extended coaxial and UTP distance runs
while preventing the image quality degradation caused
by signal losses from long cable lengths.
Functions
The following are some of the features that make the
AutoDome 600 Series the most flexible PTZ dome
camera systems in the security industry.
High-performance PTZ day/night cameras
Image control and quality are integral aspects of any
PTZ dome camera, and the AutoDome delivers. The AutoDome 600 Series camera has a 1/4-in. CCD sensor,
with 4CIF/D1 resolution and sensitivity to below 1.0
lux and is available with a choice of 28x and the industry-leading 36x optical zoom lens, and all 600 Series
systems offer a full 12x digital zoom.
Both camera options provide 550 TVL of horizontal
resolution for outstanding clarity and image detail. The
cameras also incorporate technology that dramatically
improves the dynamic range by 128 times. Also known
as WDR (wide-dynamic range), it results in clear image
reproduction in extreme high-contrast environments.
The AutoScaling (proportional zoom) and AutoPivot
(automatically rotates and flips the camera) features
ensure optimal control.
Day/night capabilities and outstanding sensitivity make
AutoDome 600 Series cameras exceptional performers
in all lighting conditions. In low light, these cameras
automatically switch from color to monochrome by removing the IR filter to boost the infrared illumination
sensitivity, while maintaining superior image quality.
For operation in the darkest conditions, the SensUp
control feature automatically reduces the shutter
speed to as little as one second. This increases sensitivity by more than 50 times.
Accurate control and positioning
With super-quick, 360° per-second pan and 100° persecond tilt speeds; the AutoDome 600 Series outperforms other domes in its class. The 600 Series supports 99 pre-positions and two styles of Guard Tours:
Preset and Record/Playback. The preset tour has capability for up to 99 pre-positions with a configurable
dwell time between pre-positions, and can be customized as to the order and frequency each preset is visited. The AutoDome 600 Series also provides support
for two recorded tours, which have a combined duration of 15 minutes of movements. These are recorded
macros of an operator’s movements, including pan,
tilt, and zoom activities, and can be played back in a
continuous manner.
Supported menu languages include: English, Czech,
Dutch, French, German, Italian, Polish, Portuguese,
Russian and Spanish.
AutoTrack II
Bosch introduced the industry’s first automated motion tracking system, and now we’ve made this awardwinning technology even better. The AutoDome 600
Series contains an advanced DSP that provides realtime video processing for incredibly smooth object
tracking.
AutoTrack II utilizes Bosch’s unique “virtual masking”
technology. These “invisible” masks are created to act
just like privacy masks, except that only the AutoTrack
can see them – and it knows to ignore any motion behind them. This enables the AutoTrack to ignore extraneous background motion, such as a tree blowing in
the wind, making it ideal for both indoor and outdoor
applications.
Video motion detection (VMD)
With AutoDome, you can create a “region of interest”
within a preset position where motion is to be detected. The AutoDome 600 Series supports a total of 10
individual regions of interest (one per pre-position).
VMD also takes advantage of virtual masking to ignore
areas of unwanted motion.
Image stabilization
As PTZ cameras continue to improve their optical
zoom capabilities, image stabilization becomes critical
to eliminate movement caused by unstable camera
mounts. A mere quarter-inch of movement of the camera mount can shift the field of view by more than 20
feet when the camera is zoomed to a high value. This
can render images unusable.
Image stabilization algorithms included with the AutoDome 600 Series reduces camera shake in both the
vertical and horizontal axis, resulting in exceptional image clarity (pixel displacement up to +/- 10% for frequencies up to 10 Hz). Bosch’s unique image stabilization solution does not reduce camera sensitivity, unlike competitive systems.
Alarm management
The AutoDome 600 Series takes alarm handling to new
levels of flexibility and power.
Inputs and outputs
The AutoDome 600 Series can handle seven alarm inputs, two of which are analog inputs that can be programmed for EOLR (End-of-Line Resistor) supervision
whenever true security applications require it. These
inputs enable the dome to “sense” if the contact is
opened or closed and whether the wire has been tampered with (either by being cut or shorted). In addition, the AutoDome 600 Series supports four outputs:
one relay rated at two amps and three additional open
collectors for driving external devices. Each can be
programmed individually.

Advanced alarm control
The AutoDome 600 advanced alarm control uses sophisticated rules-based logic to determine how to
manage alarms. In its most basic form, a “rule” could
define which input(s) should activate which output(s).
In a more complex form, inputs and outputs can be
combined with pre-defined or user-specified keyboard
commands to perform advanced dome functions.
There is virtually no limit to the number of combinations that you can program, making the standard software in the dome ready for any application.
Superior privacy masking
The AutoDome 600 Series allows for a total of 24 individual privacy masks, with up to eight displayed in the
same scene. Unlike conventional privacy masks, these
can each be programmed with three, four, or even five
corners to cover more complex shapes. Each mask
changes size and shape smoothly and quickly – ensuring that the covered object cannot be seen. You also
have a choice of colors: black, white, and blurred.
Blurred comes in handy when privacy is an issue, but
determining the presence of motion is still required.
Fiber Optic Kit
The VGA-FIBER-AN (multimode) is an analog, fiber optic conversion kit for use with 100 and 600 Series AutoDomes. This module is a video transmitter/data receiver modules designed to be mounted directly into
an AutoDome power supply box.
Ease of installation and servicing
The AutoDome 600 Series has been designed for quick
and easy installation; a key feature from Bosch CCTV
products. All housings feature recessed screws and
latches for increased tamper resistance.
AutoDome in-ceiling housings provide IP54 protection
(with an optional kit) and are rated IK 8 (IEC 62262).
These housings feature an impact-resistant polycarbonate rugged bubble to protect your camera from
vandalism. The rugged bubble can withstand impacts
equivalent to a 4.5 kg (10 lb) weight dropped from a
height of 3 m (10 ft).
AutoDome pendant housings (indoor and outdoor) are
rated to provide IP 66 protection and come fully assembled with a sunshield and ready for wall or pipe
applications with the proper mounting hardware (purchased separately). In addition, the pendant housing
comes equipped with a low-impact, high-resolution
acrylic bubble for enhanced image clarity.
Outdoor Pendant housings provide an operating temperature range down to -40°C (-40°F). The optional
“XT” extreme temperature kit allows an AutoDome to
operate in temperatures down to -60°C (-76°F), ensuring reliable operation in even the harshest environments.
Note: Bosch offers a full complement of hardware and
accessories (as a separate purchase) for corner, mast,
roof, pipe, and in-ceiling applications, which allow the
AutoDome to be easily adapted to individual site requirements.
Easy upgrades
Bosch’s innovative software, the Configuration Tool for
Imaging Devices (CTFID), allows operators or technicians to control the PTZ, change camera settings, and
even update firmware from virtually anywhere without
need for additional wiring.
The AutoDome 600 Series has advanced built-in diagnostics to simplify service and minimize downtime. Using the On Screen Display (OSD), a technician can
quickly and easily check critical parameters (such as
internal temperature and input voltage level) to verify
that the dome is functioning within acceptable operating limits. If video is not present, a local inspection of
three diagnostic LEDs at the camera site can identify
the presence of video and control data.
