System Information
3.1
Overview of functions
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.
Day/Night function
The Day/Night function provides enhanced night viewing by
increasing the IR sensitivity. The motorized IR filter can be
removed in low-light or IR illuminated applications. The IR filter
switches from color to monochrome automatically by sensing
the illumination level. In auto switching mode the camera
prioritizes motion (the camera gives sharp images without
motion blur) or color (the camera gives color pictures as long as
the light level permits). For reliable Day/Night switching with an
external IR illuminator, synchronize the camera with the IR
illuminator using an alarm input port
3.1.3
Quad-streaming
Quad-streaming enables the camera to deliver three H.264
streams (a 720p HD stream, a downscaled resolution stream,
and a HD I-frame only stream) together with an M-JPEG stream.
These four streams facilitate bandwidth-efficient viewing and
recording options as well as integration with third-party video
management systems.

3.1.4
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.
3.1.5
3.1.6
3.1.7
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 detectors
The camera offers a wide range of configuration options for
alarm signaling in the event of tampering with the camera. An
algorithm for detecting movement in the video image is also
included. Camera versons with enhanced hardware can be
optionally extended to include additional IVA features.
3.1.8
3.1.9
3.1.10
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.
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.
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.

Camera set-up
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. The camera
has a set-up menu in which basic installation settings (lens
wizard, IP address) can be accessed. To view this menu,
connect a laptop to the network connection of the camera.
6.1
Pre-defined modes
There are six pre-defined modes with settings to make
configuration easier. The modes are defined as follows;
1. 24-hour
Default installation mode to provide stable pictures over a
24-hour period. These settings are optimized for out-of-
the-box installation.
2. Traffic
Capture high-speed objects using default shutter in
variable lighting conditions.
3. Low light
Provide extra enhancement, such as AGC and SensUp to
make usable pictures in low-light conditions.
4. Smart BLC
Settings optimized to capture details in high contrast and
extremely bright-dark conditions.
5. Low noise
Enhancements are set to reduce picture noise. Useful
when conditionally refreshing IP storage systems because
reducing noise reduces the amount of storage required.
6. Infrared
Use this mode if the camera is viewing a scene lit by
infrared light.
Note:
Although the same user settings may have been made, the
camera may still behave differently in different modes.

Day/Night switching
The camera is equipped with a motorized IR filter. The
mechanical IR filter can be removed in low-light or IR
illuminated applications by software configuration settings.
If Auto switching mode is selected, the camera automatically
switches the filter depending on the observed light level. The
switching level is programmable. In Auto switching mode the
camera prioritizes motion (the camera gives sharp images
without motion blur as long as the light level permits) or color
(the camera gives color pictures as long as the light level
permits). The camera recognizes IR illuminated scenes to
prevent unwanted switching to color mode.
There are four different methods of controlling the IR filter:
–
–
–
via an alarm input,
automatically, based on the observed light levels, or
as part of the programmable mode profile.

Day/night
The Day/Night camera is equipped with a motorized IR
(infrared) filter. The IR filter can be removed in low-light or IR-
illuminated applications. There are four different methods of
switching:
–
–
–
–
via the alarm input,
as part of the programmable mode profile,
automatically, based on the observed light levels, or
via the settings page.
Note:
For reliable Day/Night switching with an external IR illuminator,
synchronize the switching of the IR filter in the camera with the
IR illuminator using an alarm input port.
Day/night
Auto - the camera switches the IR cut-off filter on and off
depending on the scene illumination level.
Monochrome - the IR cut-off filter is removed, giving full IR
sensitivity.
Color - the camera always produces a color signal regardless of
light levels.
Switch level
Set the video Switch level at which the camera in Auto mode
switches to monochrome operation (-15 to 0 to +15).
A low (negative) value means that the camera switches to
monochrome at a lower light level. A high (positive) value
means that the camera switches to monochrome at a higher
light level.
Priority
In Auto switching mode, set the camera priority to either:
–
–
Color: the camera gives color pictures as long as the light
level permits.
Motion: the camera gives sharp images without motion
blur as long as the light level permits (it switches to
monochrome earlier than it would with Color priority).

Auto black
Auto black ON automatically increases the visibility of details
even when scene contrast is less than full-range due to mist,
fog, etc.
Sharpness level
Adjusts the black level between -15 and +15. Zero position of
slider corresponds to the factory default black level.
A low (negative) value makes the picture less sharp. Increasing
sharpness brings out more detail. Extra sharpness can enhance
the details of license plates, facial features and the edges of
certain surfaces.
Dynamic noise reduction
In AUTO mode the camera automatically reduces the noise in
the picture. This may cause some motion blur on exceptionally
fast moving objects immediately in front of the camera. This can
be corrected by widening the field of view or selecting Off.

Profile Configuration
Profiles can be configured for use with the H.264 settings of
encoder streams. Select a profile by clicking the appropriate
tab. Change the name of a profile and individual parameter
values within a profile.
Profiles are rather complex. They include a number of
parameters that interact with one another, so it is generally
best to use the default profiles. Only change a profile if
completely familiar with all the configuration options.
The parameters as a group constitute a profile and are
dependent on one another. If a setting outside the permitted
range for a parameter is entered, the nearest valid value is
substituted when the settings are saved.
Profile name
Enter a new name for the profile here. (Do not use any special
characters, for example &.)
Target bit rate
To optimize utilization of the bandwidth in the network, limit
the bit rate for the camera. The target bit rate should be set
according to the desired picture quality for typical scenes with
no excessive motion.
For complex images or frequent changes of image content due
to frequent movements, this limit can temporarily be exceeded
up to the value entered in the Maximum bit rate field.
Maximum bit rate
This maximum bit rate is not exceeded under any
circumstances. Depending on the video quality settings for the
I-frames and P-frames, this can result in individual images being
skipped.
The value entered here must be at least 10% higher than the
value entered in the Target bit rate field. If the value entered
here is too low, it is automatically adjusted.
Encoding interval
The Encoding interval slider determines the interval at which
images are encoded and transmitted. This can be particularly

Analysis type
Select the required analysis algorithm. By default, only Motion+
is available — this offers a motion detector and essential
recognition of tampering.
Metadata is always created for a video content analysis, unless
this was explicitly excluded. Depending on the analysis type
selected and the relevant configuration, additional information
overlays the video image in the preview window next to the
parameter settings. With the Motion+ analysis type, for
example, the sensor fields in which motion is recorded are
marked with rectangles.
Note:
Additional analysis algorithms with comprehensive functions,
such as IVMD and IVA, are available from Bosch Security
Systems.
Motion detector
Motion detection is available for the Motion+ analysis type. For
the detector to function, the following conditions must be met:
–
–
–
Analysis must be activated.
At least one sensor field must be activated.
The individual parameters must be configured to suit the
operating environment and the desired responses.
The sensitivity must be set to a value greater than zero.
–
Note:
Reflections of light (from glass surfaces, etc.), lights switching
on and off, or changes in the light level caused by cloud
movement on a sunny day can trigger unintended responses
from the motion detector and generate false alarms. Run a
series of tests at different times of the day and night to ensure
that the video sensor is operating as intended. For indoor
surveillance, ensure constant lighting of the areas during the
day and at night.

sensor reacts to variations in the brightness of the video image.
The darker the observation area, the higher the value that must
be selected.
Minimum object size
Specify the number of sensor fields that a moving object must
cover to generate an alarm. This setting prevents objects that
are too small from triggering an alarm. A minimum value of 4 is
recommended. This value corresponds to four sensor fields.
Debounce time 1 s
The debounce time prevents very brief alarm events from
triggering individual alarms. If the Debounce time 1 s option is
activated, an alarm event must last at least 1 second to trigger
an alarm.
Selecting the area
Select the areas of the image to be monitored by the motion
detector. The video image is subdivided into square sensor
fields. Activate or deactivate each of these fields individually. To

Tamper detection
Detect tampering of cameras and video cables by means of
various options. Run a series of tests at different times of the
day and night to ensure that the video sensor is operating as
intended.
Sensitivity and Trigger delay [s] can only be changed if
Reference check is selected.
Sensitivity
The basic sensitivity of the tamper detection can be adjusted
for the environmental conditions to which the camera is
subject. The algorithm reacts to the differences between the
reference image and the current video image. The darker the
observation area, the higher the value that must be selected.
Trigger delay [s]
Set delayed alarm triggering here. The alarm is only triggered
after a set time interval in seconds has elapsed and then only if
the triggering condition still exists. If the original condition has
been restored before this time interval elapses, the alarm is not
triggered. This avoids false alarms triggered by short-term
changes, for example, cleaning activities in the direct field of
vision of the camera.
Global change (slider)
Set how large the global change in the video image must be for
an alarm to be triggered. This setting is independent of the
sensor fields selected under Select Area. Set a high value if
fewer sensor fields need to change to trigger an alarm. With a
low value, it is necessary for changes to occur simultaneously in
a large number of sensor fields to trigger an alarm. This option
allows detection, independently of motion alarms, manipulation
of the orientation or location of a camera resulting from turning
the camera mount bracket, for example.
Global change
Activate this function if the global change, as set with the
Global change slide control, should trigger an alarm.

9.8.3
Multicast
In addition to a one-to-one connection between a camera and a
single receiver (unicast), the camera can enable multiple
receivers to receive the video signal simultaneously. This is
either done by duplicating the data stream in the device and
then distributing it to multiple receivers (multi-unicast), or by
distributing an individual data stream in the network itself to
multiple receivers in a defined group (multicast). Enter a
dedicated multicast address and port for each stream. Then
switch between the streams by clicking the associated tabs.
The prerequisite for multicast operation is a multicast-capable
network that uses the UDP and IGMP protocols. Other group
membership protocols are not supported. The TCP protocol
does not support multicast connections.

A special IP address (class D address) must be configured for
multicast operation in a multicast-enabled network. The
network must support group IP addresses and the Internet
Group Management Protocol (IGMP V2). The address range is
from 225.0.0.0 to 239.255.255.255. The multicast address can
be the same for multiple streams. However, it is then necessary
to use a different port in each case so that multiple data
streams are not sent simultaneously using the same port and
multicast address. The settings must be made individually for
each stream.
Enable
Enable simultaneous data reception on several receivers that
need to activate the multicast function. To do this, check the
box and then enter the multicast address.
Multicast Address
Enter a valid multicast address to be operated in multicast
mode (duplication of the data stream in the network). With the
setting 0.0.0.0 the encoder for the stream operates in multi-
unicast mode (copying of data stream in device). The camera
supports multi-unicast connections for up to five
simultaneously-connected receivers.
Duplication of data places a heavy demand on the CPU and can
lead to impairment of the image quality under certain
circumstances.
Port
Enter the port address for the stream here.
Streaming
Click the checkbox to activate multicast streaming mode. An
activated stream is marked with a check. (Streaming is typically
not required for standard multicast operation.)
Multicast packet TTL
A value can be entered to specify how long the multicast data
packets are active on the network. If multicast is to be run via a
router, the value must be greater than 1.

Maintenance
12.1
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.
12.2
Repairs
CAUTION!
Never open the casing of the unit. The unit does not contain any
user serviceable parts. Ensure that all maintenance or repair
work is performed only by qualified personnel (electrical
engineering or network technology specialists). In case of
doubt, contact your dealer's technical service center.
12.2.1
Transfer and disposal
The camera should only be passed on together with this
installation guide. The unit contains environmentally hazardous
materials that must be disposed of according to law. Defective
or superfluous devices and parts should be disposed of
professionally or taken to your local collection point for
hazardous materials.
