Installation Overview  
CAUTION!  
Installation should be made by qualified service personnel and conform to the National  
Electrical Code and applicable local codes.  
The MIC Series cameras are designed for easy installation on a variety of common fittings. The  
most common type of mount used is a dedicated CCTV camera pole where the camera is  
bolted directly to the top using industry-standard 4 in. (101.6 mm) fitting. This type of camera  
pole provides a robust mounting platform that minimizes camera motion and typically has a  
large base cabinet for mounting ancillary equipment such as power supplies.  
The camera can also be mounted on lamp post columns using the Pole Mount Bracket (MIC-  
PMB); however, users should be aware that lamp posts can often be subject to movement and  
are not suitable platforms in all conditions or for all applications.  
For mounting directly onto buildings, Bosch Security Systems manufactures a range of  
brackets suitable for all typical building installations for upright (90°) or Inverted positions.  
Figure 3.1 MIC camera mounting positions: Upright, Inverted  
The camera’s adaptability enables easy integration in a wide variety of mobile and re-  
deployable installations. These have included lifeboats and other surface/subsurface vessels,  
emergency service vehicles, highway agency vehicles, council/contractor parking enforcement  
vehicles, and crowd-control vehicles.

Mounting Positions  
CAUTION!  
The upright unit can be mounted either with the camera ball up or down. To get the picture  
the correct way for installation with the camera ball down, rotate the camera tilt axis 180°. For  
more information, see Section 5.6 Configuring the Camera for Inverted Operation, page 36.  
If the camera is mounted ball down, it is essential that the connector and base area of the  
camera are completely sealed from water ingress. Any water getting into the connector is  
liable to cause corrosion to the connector pins, leading to unreliable operation of the camera  
unit. To prevent water penetrating the composite cable connector threads, seal the 25 mm  
thread at final installation using PTFE tape. Alternately, a suitable sealant may be liberally  
applied to the thread prior to final tightening.  
MIC Series 612 cameras are designed to be mounted upright (straight up, 90°) or inverted  
(straight down, 90°). See the figure below for the correct ways to mount the camera.

About the MIC Shielded Composite Cable  
MIC shielded composite cables are multi-conductor cables of various lengths (and gauges  
ranging from 14 - 18) that provide all power, video, and telemetry connections between the  
MIC PSU and the MIC camera. The cables are pre-made with a female-terminated 14-pin  
connector at one end for attachment to the male connector installed into the base of the  
camera. The other end of the cables has free (non-terminated) wires for wiring into terminals  
in the MIC PSU.  
Figure 3.6 Composite cable before connection to MIC612 camera  
Figure 3.7 Composite cable connected to MIC612 camera  
NOTICE!  
Bosch does not recommend using the composite cable for distances greater than 25 m  
between the MIC camera and the power supply.  
To prevent water penetrating the composite cable connector threads, seal the 25 mm thread  
at final installation using PTFE tape. Alternately, a suitable sealant may be liberally applied to  
the thread prior to final tightening.

4.3  
Mounting the Camera  
CAUTION!  
Fasteners are not supplied with MIC612 cameras because the type of fastener used depends  
on the material to which the fastener is attached. The material must accommodate a minimum  
pull-out strength of 275 kg (600 lbs.) Fasteners can include wedge anchors, sleeve anchors,  
single expansion anchors, double expansion anchors, machine screw anchors, or "Thru-  
Bolting" with a nut. All fasteners must be made of 303(A2) stainless steel, at a minimum, with  
a diameter of 8 mm (5/16-in). All bolts must extend fully through the mounting surface and be  
secured with a flat washer, lock washer, and a nut. All studs must be anchored to concrete or  
welded to a steel backing plate. Anchor bolts can be used for blind structures where there is  
no access to the rear.  
To mount a MIC Series camera, follow these steps:  
1. Identify a secure location for the mount and for the camera. Locate the mounting position  
so that the camera cannot be interfered with intentionally or accidentally. Ensure that the  
installation location has the appropriate clearance from power and lightning conductors,  
in accordance with NEC725 and NEC800 (CEC Rule 16-224 and CEC Section 60). Do not  
install the camera near:  
Any heat sources  
Any overhead power lines, power circuits, or electrical lights, or where it may  
contact power lines, circuits, or lights  
2. Ensure that the mounting surface is capable of supporting the combined weight of the  
camera and mounting hardware under all expected conditions of load, vibration, and  
temperature. MIC612 cameras must be secured to one of the following surfaces:  
Concrete Solid/Cast  
Concrete Masonry Unit (Concrete Block)  
Brick (all types)  
Metal (Steel/Aluminum, minimum 1/8-in. thick)  
Note: If the camera is positioned in a highly exposed area where lightning strikes may occur, it  
is recommended to install a lightning conductor within 0.5 m of the camera and at least 1.5 m  
higher than the camera. The construction of the camera housing itself is capable of coping  
with secondary strikes. If the correct lightning protection is applied, no damage to the internal  
electronics or camera should result. An earth bonding connection to the case also provides  
protection against damage from secondary strikes. (See step 8.)  
NOTICE!  
MIC 612 cameras have an internal fuse for protection. The fuse (XF4001) is a non-serviceable  
part and must be replaced at a Bosch Service Center. DO NOT open the camera housing.  
3. Fit the mounting brackets securely, observing all appropriate safety precautions and local  
building regulations.  
4. Carefully lift the camera to the mounting point.  
5. Connect the female 14-pin connector end of the shielded composite cable to the male  
plug in the base of the camera. Screw the cable connector sleeve onto the plug until it is  
firmly secured (approximately four (4) turns from the start of thread engagement).  
6. Earth the camera using one of the supplied securing bolts. Only earth the camera at a  
single point to prevent earth loops and video distortion (hum bars), caused by electrical  
interference, from appearing on the camera picture in the control room. Please note:  
The camera module and housing are electrically isolated, so the housing should be  
safety earthed regardless. The safety earth should be a bonding connection (for

example, one of the securing bolts) to the camera’s outside case, and should be  
attached to the Earth terminal post on the PCD base of the camera.  
If the system is copper throughout and the camera pictures are fed back to the  
control room via coaxial copper cable, then the camera should be earthed only at the  
video termination point in the control room. In this case, the "Earth Link" on the PCB  
should be broken. Refer to Section 4.4.1 Earth Link on PCB, page 21.  
If the video is transmitted back to the control room via some non-electrical  
connecting medium (for example, fiber optic, radio, or microwave link), then the  
camera should be earthed at the transmitter point in the power supply unit. The PSU  
"Earth Link" may be used for this purpose.  
If dual earthing is unavoidable, then a video isolation transformer should be fitted  
between the two earths.  
7. Use M8 x 20 mm stainless steel nuts, bolts, and washers to secure the PCD base of the  
camera to the mounting bracket. An additional Nebar gasket or suitable silicone sealant  
can be used to ensure a water tight seal between the base and mounting surface. Tighten  
all bolts securely.  
8. Secure all cabling and conduit.  
WARNING!  
If the camera is mounted ball down, it is essential that the connector and base area of the  
camera are completely sealed from water ingress. Any water getting into the connector is  
liable to cause corrosion to the connector pins, leading to unreliable operation of the camera  
unit.  
WARNING!  
To prevent water from penetrating the composite cable connector threads, the 25 mm thread  
should be sealed at final installation using PTFE tape (not supplied). Alternatively, a suitable  
sealant may be liberally applied to the thread prior to final tightening.  
4.4  
Installing the MIC Power Supply Unit (PSU)  
Each MIC power supply unit (PSU) provides all of the connections needed for power, video,  
and telemetry for a single MIC camera. Each MIC PSU has CE and FCC approval and has a  
cast-aluminum enclosure that is weather-resistant (rated IP65). Features include:  
A provision for driving various optional interface cards mounted internally to the MIC  
power supply enclosure (for example, an 8-input alarm card (MIC-ALM))  
A provision for a signal interface card (MIC-BP4) to connect telemetry to Bosch Biphase  
equipment  
Screw termination of all cables (composite, telemetry, and ancillary) into and out of the  
enclosure  
Earth isolation and termination within the unit to control video earthing correctly and  
thus prevent earth loops  
Each MIC PSU ships with the following parts:  
Three (3) M12 cable glands for telemetry, video and ancillary equipment  
One (1) M16 gland for connection of the shielded composite cable to the MIC camera  
One (1) 1/2 in. NPT cable gland for the power cable connection  
One (1) 1/2 in. NPT and one (1) M12 blanking plug  
MIC612 cameras can use the following power supply units: MIC-240PSU-2 (230 VAC), MIC-  
115PSU-2 (115 VAC), or MIC-240PSU-2 (24 VAC). The dimensions (H x W x D) of the PSU  
enclosures are: 90 x 260 x 160 mm (3.54 x 10.24 x 6.3 in.). The weight is 3.2 kg (7.1 lb).

NOTICE!  
Only use the specified power supplies with the MIC612.  
4.4.1  
Earth Link on PCB  
The printed circuit board (PCB) has one Earth Link option, near terminal block HD1, to allow  
the PSU to be set up for different earthing schemes:  
If there is a separate connection between video screen and earth, the Earth Link should  
be broken. This usually occurs on copper-connected systems where all of the copper  
video coaxes are taken back to the control room to be connected to a central earth point.  
If fiber optics or other indirect connections are used to get data and video to and from  
the control room, then the Earth Link should be left intact, as long as it is the only  
camera-end earth reference point.  
4.4.2  
Fuse Ratings  
The MIC PSUs for MIC612 cameras have four (4) off 20 mm fuses (numbers 13 - 16 in  
Figure 4.3) in fuse holders. The ratings for these fuses are fixed on the low voltage secondary  
side but change with input voltage on the high voltage primary side. The following table shows  
the fuse values that should be fitted to provide proper protection for the MIC-240PSU-2 and  
MIC-115PSU-2 power supplies. Note: FS 4 does not exist.

Installation Instructions  
DANGER!  
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD  
To reduce the risk of electrical shock, disconnect power before opening or working on  
any power supply unit. Power must be disconnected before replacing any fuse in the MIC  
PSU. Power supply units have power supplied whenever the power cord is inserted into  
the power source.  
MIC PSUs have a separate internal shield covering the power cable input terminal block  
(HD1). Only suitably qualified persons should remove this shield and connect the mains  
power cable. The shield MUST be re-installed and fully secured before connecting the  
power.  
The power supply cable shall have conductors of a maximum size of 12 AWG.  
Branch circuit protection incorporating a 15 A, 2-pole, listed circuit breaker or branch  
rated fuses are required. A readily accessible 2-pole disconnect device with a contact  
separation of at least 3mm must be incorporated externally to the equipment.  
WARNING!  
To meet UL standards and ratings, all external wires for installation applications must be  
routed through a permanently earthed metal conduit.  
CAUTION!  
Except for the Earth Link, heater links, and applicable fuses, the MIC PSUs have no user-  
adjustable parts. MIC cameras have no user-serviceable parts.  
CAUTION!  
Bosch recommends using an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) in connection with a MIC  
camera/PSU installation.  
NOTICE!  
To maintain the IP rating of the power supply enclosure, install only listed or recognized  
conduit hubs or fittings with the same environmental rating as the enclosure in compliance  
with the installation instruction of the hub or fitting.  
NOTICE!

To install the power supply, follow these steps:  
1. Select the mounting position of the MIC PSU so that it cannot be interfered with either  
intentionally or accidentally. Bosch recommends using a lockable cabinet.  
2. Locate the four (4) mounting holes of the power supply enclosure. (Figure 4.4 displays  
one of the holes.) See the dimensional drawing in the appendix for hole locations. The  
dimensions shown are for the mounting holes only. The other 4 holes shown are for  
securing the lid and are for reference only.  
3. Drill four (4) holes in the mounting surface for the mounting anchors appropriate for M6  
screws (not supplied).  
4. Loosen the four (4) captive Phillips head screws on the top of the lid of the power supply  
enclosure (item 2, Figure 4.4). Lift the lid and set it upside down next to the enclosure.  
NOTICE!  
Do not stretch or cut, or otherwise disturb, the earth core cable (shown in the figure below)  
to the inside of the lid and to the earth termination post.

Setting the Address of the Optical Camera via FastAddress  
The MIC612 offers remote addressing of the optical camera via the feature "FastAddress,"  
which allows you to set or to change a camera address using the keyboard and on-screen  
menus. The FastAddress feature allows you to install all cameras first, then to set the  
addresses via the control system. This feature makes it easier to re-address cameras at a later  
time because you do not need to go to the physical location of the camera to change the  
camera’s address.  
NOTICE!  
You do not need to set a camera address if using Bilinx communication.  
FastAddress is stored in nonvolatile memory and does not change if the power is turned off or  
if the default settings are restored.  
5.4.2  
FastAddress, Bosch Protocol  
In Bosch protocol, there are three (3) FastAddress commands:  
ON-999-ENTER: Displays and programs all cameras without an address in the system.  
NOTICE!  
If a keyboard is set to a camera number that already has an address, that camera also  
responds to this command.

Operation of the Thermal Camera  
8.1  
Switching Video  
To switch Video Channel 2 between the optical (visible) camera and the thermal camera,  
enter the Thermal Camera Setup menu of the OSD, select the option Second Channel Video,  
and then toggle to the appropriate choice.  
8.2  
Flat-Field Correction (FFC)  
The thermal camera uses an internal process called flat-field correction (FFC) to improve the  
quality of the thermal video image displayed on the monitor. During this process, a shutter  
rotates in front of the Focal Plane Array (FPA) to give a uniform temperature (a flat field) to  
every detector element. During the process (which takes less than a second), the live thermal  
video image is frozen, and persists, while the camera updates correction coefficients. After  
the process completes, live video returns automatically. With a more uniform array output, the  
quality of the image should improve.  
About 2 seconds before an automatic FFC operation, the thermal camera displays a small  
green square in the upper right of the video output. This square symbol is called the Flat Field  
Imminent Symbol; it warns that FFC is about to begin.  
Figure 8.1 Thermal image with Flat Field Imminent Symbol (green square)  
Performing FFC often should prevent the thermal video image from appearing “grainy”. This is  
especially important when the temperature of the camera is fluctuating, such as immediately  
after the camera is powered on, or when ambient temperature is changing.  
8.3  
Displaying Thermal Camera Temperature  
The thermal camera can display its internal temperature on the video output with a SPOT  
meter (320 TVL models only).  
1. In Bosch protocol, in the OSD, enter "Aux ON + 463 + ENTER." The message, "SPOT meter  
Display: ON" should appear on-screen, and the SPOT meter should appear.  
Note: entering "Aux OFF + 463 +ENTER" deactivates the SPOT meter.  
2. Select the appropriate temperature scale. Enter "Aux ON + 463 + ENTER" again to toggle  
the temperature scale as necessary. (The default scale is in Degrees F.)  
NOTICE!  
The selected settings should remain in internal memory; if you must turn off power to the  
camera, the camera should retain the last meter display and the temperature scale (°F/°C);  
those should appear after power on.

MIC612 Thermal Camera  
8.4  
Triggering Alarms On Detection of Objects Outside of Set  
Thermal Temperature Threshold  
On models with the 35 mm thermal lens, you can set a High Temp Thermal Meter or Low  
Temp Thermal Meter in order to trigger an alarm if the thermal spot meter identifies that the  
temperature of an object in the view of the camera is outside of the temperature threshold set  
in the system. The alarm input "High Temp Thermal Meter" identifies the high temperature  
threshold for objects in view of the camera. If the camera detects an object with a  
temperature that is higher than the threshold that is set in the system, it triggers an alarm.  
The alarm input "Low Temp Thermal Meter" identifies the low temperature threshold for  
objects in view of the camera. If the camera detects an object with a temperature that is lower  
than the threshold that is set in the system, it triggers an alarm. For both inputs, the  
temperature range is -40 °C to +150 °C, in 1 degree increments. The temperature scale is in  
degrees Celsius only. The system allows you to set multiple high and low temperature inputs.  
You can also set only a High threshold, or only a Low threshold; you do not need to set both.  
To trigger the alarm, you must set the temperature threshold (high or low or both), and then  
set the alarm rule.  
Set the Temperature Threshold  
To set the High Temp Thermal Meter input, follow these steps:  
1. Access the Alarm Setup menu of the OSD.  
2. Select the Inputs Setup submenu.  
3. Select the number of the input that you want to set.  
4. Select the value "High Temp Thermal Meter".  
5. Select the degree for the high temperature threshold (for example, 50 °C). The default  
option is "Not Set."  
6. Exit the Inputs Setup submenu. The High Temperature threshold is now set.  
To set the Low Temp Thermal Meter input, follow these steps:  
1. Access the Alarm Setup menu of the OSD.  
2. Select the Inputs Setup submenu.  
3. Select the number of the input that you want to set.  
4. Select the value "Low Temp Thermal Meter".  
5. Select the degree for the low temperature threshold (for example, -10 °C). The default  
option is "Not Set."  
6. Exit the Inputs Setup submenu. The Low Temperature threshold is now set.  
Set the Alarm Rule  
To set the rule for the thermal temperature alarm, follow these steps:  
1. Access the Rule Setup submenu.  
2. Select the number of the rule that you want to define.  
3. Select "Input."  
4. Select the appropriate Input value: "High Temp Thermal Meter" or "Low Temp Thermal  
Meter".  
5. Select "Output."  
6. Select the appropriate Output value. For example, in order to display the thermal  
temperature alarm, when triggered, on the OSD, select the value "OSD."  
7. Select "Yes" when prompted to "Enable Rule" in order to activate the alarm rule.  
8. Exit the Rule [number] submenu. The rule that you selected is now "Enabled" in the

MIC612 Thermal Camera  
10  
Advanced Features  
This chapter details advanced user commands, which are more complicated than those in  
Section 9 Common User Commands, page 59.  
10.1  
Alarm Rules  
The MIC612 features a powerful alarm rule engine. In its simplest form, an alarm rule defines  
those inputs that activate specific outputs. In its more complex form, a rule can be  
programmed to take any combination of inputs and keyboard commands to perform a camera  
function. There are numerous combinations of alarm inputs and outputs that can be  
programmed into twelve (12) alarm rules.  
10.1.1  
Controlling Alarm Rules  
The AUX 69 command allows a user to enable or disable all alarm rules. By default, alarm rules  
are enabled until the OFF-69-ENTER command is issued from a keyboard (there is no  
corresponding menu item for this command). Disabling alarms rules does not erase the rule,  
the MIC612 preserves the user-defined settings and the rule data is restored when the ON-69-  
ENTER command is issued.  
The OFF-69-ENTER command performs the following actions:  
Disables all alarm rules  
Displays the message “Ack and Reset Alarms” if an alarm-rule triggered alarm is active  
when the MIC612 receives the disable command. You must acknowledge the alarm  
before the rule is disabled.  
Prevents the modification of an alarm rule while disabled.  
10.1.2  
Alarm Rule Examples  
Following are two examples for setting up alarm rules.  
Example 1: Basic Alarm Rule  
Scenario: We want a door alarm contact to:  
1. Flash an OSD message (***ALARM 1***) on the display when the alarm is triggered.  
2. Move the MIC612 camera to a saved position. (For this example, Shot 7.)  
3. Transmit a Bilinx signal over the coax cable to the headend system, such as an Allegiant,  
to trigger an alarm response.  
The sequence to program the above alarm rule example is as follows:  
1. Wire the door contact to Input 1 in the MIC612. This circuit is normally open.  
2. Define the Alarm Input(s): From the Inputs Setup menu, ensure that Alarm Input 1 is set  
to N.O. (the default setting for Input 1).  
3. Define the Alarm Outputs:  
a. From the Outputs Setup menu, ensure that Output 5 is set to OSD (the default  
setting for Output 5).  
b. Set Output 6 to Shot 7.  
c. Set Output 7 to Transmit (a Bilinx signal to the head end).  
4. Set up the Alarm Rule by selecting the Inputs and Outputs from the Rule Setup menu:  
a. Select Rule 1.  
b. Set the first input to Alarm Input 1.  
c. Set the first output to OSD.  
d. Set the second output to Shot 7.

MIC612 Thermal Camera  
Advanced Features | en

Example 2: Advanced Alarm Rule  
Scenario: A MIC612 located at an airport is set to AutoPan Between Limits from the parking  
garage to the airport terminal. The gate entering the airport has an alarm contact connected  
to the MIC612, and the perimeter fence in the area of the gate has an infrared (IR) sensor for  
motion detection (motion detector) that is connected to the MIC612.  
When the alarms for the gate contact and the motion detector are activated at the same time,  
we want the alarm rule to:  
1. Flash an OSD message (***ALARM 2***) on the monitor.  
2. Stop the AutoPan and move the camera to a saved position (Shot 5) viewing the fence.  
3. Transmit a Bilinx signal to the head end system to trigger an alarm response.  
The sequence to program this alarm rule example is as follows:  
1. Wire and set the alarm Input(s).  
a. Wire the motion detector to Input 1. (This circuit is normally open.)  
b. Wire the gate alarm contact to Input 5. (This circuit is normally closed.)  
2. From the Inputs Setup menu:  
a. Ensure that Input 1 (the motion detector) is set to N.O. (This setting is the default  
for Input 1.)  
b. Ensure that Input 5 (the gate contact) is set to N.C.  
3. Set the alarm Outputs from the Outputs Setup menu:  
a. Set Output 5 to OSD.  
b. Set Output 6 to Transmit.  
c. Set Output 7 to Shot 5.  
4. Set up the Alarm Rule by selecting the Inputs and Outputs from the Rule Setup menu:  
a. Select Rule 2.  
b. Set the first input to Alarm Input 1 (the motion detector).  
c. Set the second input to Alarm Input 5 (the gate alarm contact).  
d. Set the first output to OSD.  
e. Set the second output to Shot5 viewing the fence.  
f.  
Set the third output to Transmit (a Bilinx signal to the headend).  
5. Enable the Alarm Rule: Highlight Enabled and select YES.  
10.2  
Privacy Masking  
Privacy Masking is used to block out a specific area of a scene from being viewed. Each mask  
changes size and shape smoothly and quickly, ensuring that the covered object cannot be  
seen. The MIC Series 612 camera allows for a total of 24 individual privacy masks, with up to  
eight in the same scene. Masks can be programmed with three, four, or five corners each.  
Each mask can appear in black, white, or blurred. Blurred is useful when privacy is an issue,  
but determining the presence of motion is still required.  
To configure a Privacy Mask, open the Main menu, select Display Setup, and then select  
Privacy Mask. Alternatively, enter the keyboard command ON-87-ENTER. To setup a  
privacy mask, follow the on-screen menu instructions.  
In Pelco Mode, open the Pelco Main menu, open the Bosch menu, select the Display  
Setup menu, and then select Privacy Masking. To setup a privacy mask, follow the on-  
screen menu instructions.  
NOTICE!  
Draw the mask 10% larger than the object to ensure that the mask completely covers the  
object as the MIC612 zooms in and out.

10.3  
Image Stabilization  
Image Stabilization becomes increasingly important as zoom ranges are extended. The  
advanced image stabilization algorithms of the MIC612 eliminate camera shake for  
exceptional image clarity. Bosch achieves this clarity without reducing camera sensitivity or  
picture quality. To activate image stabilization, open the Main menu, select the Camera Setup  
menu, and then select Stabilization to turn on the feature.  
10.4  
Pre-position Tour  
The MIC612 features (2) preset tours. Each preset scene is saved for playback later.  
Tour 1 is a standard tour that only recalls the scenes in the exact sequence they were shot.  
Scenes can be added or deleted on the tour, but the sequence cannot be changed. To add or  
remove scenes on Tour 1 enter the keyboard command SHOT-900-ENTER and follow the on-  
screen instructions.  
Tour 2 is a customizable tour that allows you to rearrange the sequence of scenes on the tour  
by inserting and deleting scenes. To enter the Edit Tour 2 menu, enter the keyboard command  
SET-900-ENTER and follow the on-screen instructions.  
10.5  
Azimuth, Elevation, and Compass Directions  
The MIC612 allows a user to display the azimuth and elevation position, and the compass  
heading of the camera. The MIC612 displays the position data in the lower-right corner of the  
image display. These readings are described as:  
Azimuth The pan angle from zero to 359 degrees in one degree increments. An azimuth of  
zero degrees corresponds to North.  
Elevation The tilt position from zero (horizon) to –90 degrees (camera pointing straight  
down) in one degree increments.  
Compass The cardinal or intercardinal (N, NE, E, SE, S, SW, W, NW) heading in which the  
camera is pointing.  
The MIC612 uses the azimuth to determine the compass direction. The following table shows  
the azimuth range and its corresponding compass heading:  
Azimuth Range Compass Direction  
21° to 65°  
NE (Northeast)  
E (East)  
SE (Southeast)  
S (South)  
SW (Southwest)  
W (West)  
NW (Northwest)  
N (North)  
66° to 110°  
111° to 155°  
156° to 200°  
201° to 245°  
246° to 290°  
291° to 335°  
336° to 20°  
10.5.1  
Setting the Azimuth Zero Point  
The installer must calibrate the Azimuth Zero point. The MIC612 uses the Azimuth Zero point,  
usually set to magnetic North, as the zero degree pan position and as the North compass  
heading. The MIC612 then displays the azimuth reading and the compass heading based on  
the number of degrees from the Azimuth Zero point.  
To set the Azimuth Zero point:  
1. Determine the North compass heading, then move the camera to that position.  
2. Press OFF-90-ENTER to turn off the command lock (if active).  
3. Press ON-94-ENTER to set the Azimuth Zero point.

CAUTION!  
Bosch recommends that only the installer calibrate the Azimuth Zero point. A recalibration to  
the Azimuth Zero point may cause inaccurate compass headings.  
10.5.2  
Displaying Azimuth, Elevation, and Compass Headings  
You can display only the azimuth/elevation readings or only the compass reading, or you can  
display both readings at the same time. The MIC612 displays the azimuth/elevation readings  
and the compass heading in the following way:  
180 / –45 S  
where:  
180 is the Azimuth or the pan location in degrees.  
–45 is the Elevation or the tilt location in degrees.  
S is the compass direction (cardinal or intercardinal).  
1. Press ON-95-ENTER to display the azimuth/elevation reading.  
2. Press ON-96-ENTER to display the compass heading.  
3. Press OFF-95-ENTER to hide the azimuth/elevation reading.  
4. Press OFF-96-ENTER to hide the compass heading.
