is a high-performance, surveillance color camera.
The analog video output of the camera can be used
simultaneously with an IP stream to allow operation in hybrid
mode. The IP video stream uses H.264 compression technology
to give clear images while reducing bandwidth and storage
requirements. It is also ONVIF compliant to improve
compatibility during system integration.
The camera operates as a network video server and transmits
video and control signals over data networks, such as Ethernet
LANs and the Internet. The camera is easy to install and ready
to use. Features include:

System Information
3.1
Network video server
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
3.1.2
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.
True Day/Night function
In night mode, the camera enhances low light viewing by
switching the IR (infrared) filter out of the optical path and
providing a monochrome image. The camera can switch from
color to monochrome mode automatically by sensing the
illumination level, manually via the alarm input, or remotely via a
web browser.
3.1.3
3.1.4
Multiple streams
Multiple streams enable the camera to deliver several H.264
streams together with an M-JPEG stream. These streams
facilitate bandwidth-efficient viewing and recording options as
well as integration with third-party video management systems.
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.

Audio
Two-way duplex audio is available in the unit for live voice
communications or audio recording.
Alarm I/O
The alarm input can be used to control the functionality of the
unit. An alarm output can control external devices.
Tamper detection and motion detection
The camera offers a wide range of configuration options for
alarm signaling in the event of tampering with the camera. A
Motion+ algorithm for detecting movement in the video image is
included.
3.1.8
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.
3.1.9
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/V3 protocols
are implemented on the network.
3.1.10
3.1.11
Power-over-Ethernet
Power for the camera can be supplied via a Power-over-
Ethernet compliant network cable connection. With this
configuration, only a single cable connection is required to
view, power, and control the camera.
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.

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.
Bosch Video Client
The camera video server and the Bosch Video Client software
combine to provide a high-performance system solution. The
Bosch Video Client is a Windows application for viewing,
operating, controlling, and administering CCTV installations
(such as surveillance systems) at remote locations.
Bosch Recording Station
The camera is also designed for use with the Bosch Recording
Station. The Bosch Recording Station can record up to 64 video
and audio streams. The Bosch Recording Station supports
various functions of the camera, such as controlling relays,
remote control of peripheral devices, and remote configuration.

Camera configuration
The camera normally provides an optimal picture without the
need for further adjustments. Configuration of the camera is
carried out via the network using a web browser.
6.1
User modes
The camera has six user modes. These modes contain
optimized settings for a variety of applications. Select the mode
most suited to the camera’s function via the web browser
interface.
6.2
Day/Night switching
The camera is equipped with a motorized IR filter. The
mechanical IR filter is taken out of the optical path in low-light
applications.
The IR filter is controlled either:
–
–
via an alarm input, or
automatically, based on the observed light levels.
If Auto switching mode is selected, the camera automatically
switches the filter depending on the observed light level. The
switching level is programmable.
Note:
When the auto mode is selected and the switching level is set
to -15, certain borderline scene lighting conditions can cause
the camera to switch back and forth between day and night
modes. Set a different switching level to avoid this.

Browser connection
A computer with Microsoft Internet Explorer can be used to
receive live images from the camera, control the camera, and
replay stored sequences. The camera is configured over the
network using the browser.
The configuration options using the menu system of the camera
itself are limited to setting up the lens and network.
Note:
The camera can also be configured using the supplied Bosch
Video Client or the Bosch Video Management System.

Protected network
If a RADIUS server is used for network access control (802.1x
authentication), the camera must be configured first. To
configure the camera for a Radius network, connect it directly
to a PC via a crossed network cable and configure the two
parameters, Identity and Password. Only after these have been
configured can communication with the camera via the network
occur.

Maintenance
9.1
Testing the network connection
The ping command can be used to check the connection
between two IP addresses. This allows testing whether a device
is active in the network.
1. Open the DOS command prompt.
2. Type ping followed by the IP address of the device.
If the device is found, the response appears as " Reply from ... ",
followed by the number of bytes sent and the transmission time
in milliseconds. Otherwise, the device cannot be accessed via
the network. This might be because:
–
The device is not properly connected to the network.
Check the cable connections in this case.
–
The device is not correctly integrated into the network.
Check the IP address, subnet mask, and gateway address.
9.2
Cleaning the bubble
The exterior of the bubble is hard coated for extra protection. If
cleaning becomes necessary, only use cleaning solutions and
cloths suitable for cleaning safety glass lenses. Dry the bubble
thoroughly with a dry nonabrasive cloth to prevent water spots.
Never scrub the bubble with any abrasive material or cleaners.
–
–
–
–
Do not use abrasive or highly alkaline cleaners on the
bubble.
Do not scrape the bubble with razor blades or other sharp
instruments.
Do not use Benzene, Gasoline, Acetone, or Carbon
Tetrachloride on the bubble.
Do not clean bubbles in the hot sun or on very hot days
