Connection in Applications

24 VAC power source: This unit is intended to operate with a limited power source. The unit
is intended to operate at 24 VAC (if High PoE is not available). User supplied wiring must be in compliance with electrical codes (Class 2 power levels). High Power-over-Ethernet (High PoE): This unit can by powered via High PoE. To power the unit this way, use only approved High PoE devices – those offered or recommended by Bosch. High PoE can be connected at the same time as a 24 VAC power supply. If auxiliary power (24 VAC to camera and to heater) and High PoE are applied simultaneously, the camera usually selects auxiliary input (24 VAC) and will usually draw minimal power from the Bosch High PoE midspan. For pendant models used in outdoor applications that require heaters, a Bosch High PoE 60W midspan (NPD-6001A, sold separately) is required to power both the camera and its internal heaters. For in-ceiling or indoor pendant applications that don’t require heater power, standard PoE+ (802.3at) midspans or switches can be used to power the camera.

System overview

The AUTODOME 7000 Series camera includes the following functionality:
Function Description
Video Encoding The camera uses the H.264 compression standards and ensures that the
data rate remains low even with high image quality and can also be adapted to local conditions within wide limits.
Streaming Encodes multiple data streams simultaneously according to individually
customized profiles. This feature creates data streams that can serve different purposes. For example, one (1) data stream for recording and one (1) data stream optimized for transmission over the Local Area Network (LAN).
Multicast Enables simultaneous, real-time transmission to multiple receivers. The
network must implement the UDP and IGMP V2 protocols as a prerequisite for Multicasting.
Configuration Allows configuration for all camera settings from a Web browser on the
local network (Intranet) or on the Internet. You can also update the firmware, load device configurations, store configuration settings, and copy these settings from one camera to another.
Intelligent Tracking
Continuously follows an individual. Intelligent Tracking operates by recognizing an individual in motion and zooms-in to approximately 50% of the field of view for an average target height of six feet.
Snapshots Allows you to take and store individual video frames as JPEG images
from the Web browser interface.
Record Allows configuration for the recording options of the IP module. You can
record video from the LIVE page to a hard drive or to a customer­provided SD card.
Playback Allows playback of stored video from a customer-provided SD card.
Models with the 30x optical zoom have additional features, including the following.
Anti-fog feature
Intelligent Dynamic Noise Reduction (iDNR)
Image Stabilization
Significantly improves visibility when viewing foggy or other low-contract scenes.
IVA / VCA controls the iDNR feature, which reduces noise based on motion activity in the scene. When there is no motion in the preset scene, noise reduction is increased. When the camera detects motion in the preset scene, noise reduction is decreased to reduce bandwidth and optimize storage space.
This feature allows the camera to detect continuous vibration. If it detects vibration, the camera dynamically corrects the shaky video in both the vertical and horizontal axis, resulting in exceptional image clarity and a stable field of view on the monitor.

Stabilization

Surveillance cameras are susceptible to vibrations caused by wind or vibrations emanating from the medium to which the camera is attached. Cameras attached to a pole, roof, or to a bridge are especially vulnerable. Bosch offers the following recommendations to stabilize an AUTODOME 7000 and to decrease the affects of vibration on transmitted images, privacy masks, and Intelligent Tracking.
Pole and Mast Mounts
Use a pendant arm with the Pole Mount Adapter (VG4-A-9541).
Do not attach a parapet mount to a pole or mast.
Use a pole designed specifically for CCTV cameras:
Do not use a tapered pole. – Do not use a pole that has signs or other equipment attached.
Consult EPA rating / Wind load data to select an appropriate pole.
Roof Mounts
Mount the camera in the most stable location on the roof. – Avoid locations affected by vibrations such as those caused by a rooftop air conditioner. – Use guy wires to stabilize the AUTODOME against strong winds. – Use the LTC 9230/01 Flat Roof Mount Adapter where appropriate. This adapter is made
specifically for AUTODOME roof applications.
Extreme Mount Applications
Unique camera mounting applications that are impacted by extreme high winds, heavy traffic, or other conditions may require additional measures to stabilize the camera. Contact a manufacturer that specializes in passive vibration suppression using either damping or isolation.
