Installing a Surface Mount  
4.1  
Description  
This chapter details how to mount the AutoDome Easy II to a  
hard surface. The AutoDome Easy II is also suitable for wall  
(Section 5 Installing a Wall Mount, page 33), recess  
(Section 6 Installing a Recessed Mount, page 44), and pipe  
mounting (Section 7 Installing a Pipe Mount, page 52). For  
specific directions on mounting the unit, see the manual that  
came with your mount.  
For an outdoor installation you must obtain the Surface Mount  
Junction Box (VEZ-A2-JC or VEZ-A2-JW) and the gaskets and O-  
rings supplied with an AutoDome Easy II Outdoor Camera to  
ensure a water-tight environment inside the unit and to  
maintain an IP Environmental Protection Rating. Refer to  
Section 4.1.3 Preparing the Surface Mount for an Outdoor  
Installation, page 25, to start an outdoor installation.  
NOTICE!  
The image sensors in modern CCD cameras are highly sensitive  
and require special care for proper performance and extended  
lifetime. Follow the guidelines for optimum results with your  
camera:  
Do not expose to direct sunlight or bright spotlights in  
operating and nonoperating conditions.  
Avoid bright lights in the field of view of the camera. Bright  
lights cause a “smearing” effect, which is visible as white  
lines above and below the highlight. Prolonged exposure to  
bright lights may cause bleaching of the sensor's color  
filters. This will be visible as colored spots in the picture  
and is irreversible.

Description  
This chapter details how to mount the AutoDome Easy II to a  
pipe. The AutoDome Easy II is also suitable for surface  
(Section 4 Installing a Surface Mount, page 22), wall  
(Section 5 Installing a Wall Mount, page 33), and recess  
mounting (Section 6 Installing a Recessed Mount, page 44). For  
specific directions on mounting the unit, see the manual that  
came with your mount.  
For an outdoor installation you must obtain the gaskets and O-  
rings supplied with an AutoDome Easy II Outdoor Camera to  
ensure a water-tight environment inside the unit and to  
maintain an IP Environmental Protection Rating.  
NOTICE!  
The image sensors in modern CCD cameras are highly sensitive  
and require special care for proper performance and extended  
lifetime. Follow the guidelines for optimum results with your  
camera:  
Do not expose to direct sunlight or bright spotlights in  
operating and nonoperating conditions.  
Avoid bright lights in the field of view of the camera. Bright  
lights cause a “smearing” effect, which is visible as white  
lines above and below the highlight. Prolonged exposure to  
bright lights may cause bleaching of the sensor's color  
filters. This will be visible as colored spots in the picture  
and is irreversible.

When you turn the AutoDome Easy II power on there is a ten  
(10) second pause before the dome starts its homing phase.  
During the homing phase the camera pans left and right and  
tilts up and down. It also adjusts the lens focus. The entire  
homing phase lasts approximately 20 seconds and ends with a  
splash screen.  
WARNING!  
Before powering the dome on, remove the clear protective  
plastic sheet on top of the bubble.

Using the AutoDome Easy II IP  
The AutoDome Easy II IP transmits PTZ control commands and  
images over a TCP/IP network. It also allows users to configure  
the camera display settings, camera operating settings, and to  
configure the network parameters.  
The IP unit incorporates a network video server in the IP  
module. The primary function of the server is to encode video  
and control data for transmission over a TCP/IP network. With  
its H.264 encoding, it is ideally suited for IP communication and  
for remote access to digital video recorders and multiplexers.  
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.  
Refer to Section 18 BVIP Firmware Updates, page 132, for  
firmware upgrade instructions.

Overview of Features  
The AutoDome Easy II IP module includes the following  
functionality:  
Function  
Description  
Video Encoding  
Dual Streaming  
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.  
Encodes dual data streams simultaneously according to  
two individually customized profiles. This feature  
creates two (2) data streams per camera that can serve  
different purposes. For example, one (1) data stream  
for local 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.  
Snapshots  
Record  
Allows you to take and store individual video frames as  
JPEG images from the Web browser interface.  
Allows configuration for the recording options of the IP  
module. You can record video from the Livepage to a  
hard drive or you can opt to store up to 8 MB of video  
on the IP module.

Basic Mode: Device Access  
Camera name  
You can give the AutoDome Easy II IP a name to make it easier  
to identify. The name makes the task of administering multiple  
units in larger video monitoring systems easier, for example  
using the VIDOS or Bosch Video Management System  
programs.  
The device name is used for the remote identification of a unit,  
in the event of an alarm for example. For this reason, enter a  
name that makes it as easy as possible to quickly identify the  
location.  
CAUTION!  
Do not use any special characters, for example &, in the name.  
Special characters are not supported by the system's internal  
recording management and may therefore result in the Player or  
Archive Player being unable to play back the recording.  
Password  
An AutoDome Easy II IP is generally protected by a password to  
prevent unauthorized access to the unit. You can use different  
authorization levels to limit access.  
The AutoDome Easy II IP operates with three authorization  
levels: service, user and live.  
The highest authorization level is service. After entering the  
correct password, you can access all the functions of the  
AutoDome Easy II IP and change all configuration settings.

AutoDome Easy II IP  
With the user authorization level, you can operate the unit and  
also control cameras, for example, but you cannot change the  
configuration.  
The lowest authorization level is live. It can only be used to  
view the live video image and switch between the different live  
image displays.  
You can define and change a password for each authorization  
level if you are logged in as service or if the unit is not  
password protected.  
Enter the password for the appropriate authorization level here.  
NOTICE!  
Proper password protection is only guaranteed when all higher  
authorization levels are also protected with a password. If a live  
password is assigned, for example, a service and a user  
password must also be set. When assigning passwords, you  
should therefore always start from the highest authorization  
level, service, and use different passwords.  
Confirm password  
In each case, enter the new password a second time to  
eliminate typing mistakes.

If there are multiple devices operating in your system or  
network, it is important to synchronize their internal clocks. For  
example, it is only possible to identify and correctly evaluate  
simultaneous recordings when all units are operating on the  
same time. If necessary, you can synchronize the unit with your  
computer's system settings.  
Click the Sync to PC button to copy your computer's  
system time to the AutoDome Easy II IP.

Configuring the AutoDome Easy II IP | en 89  
Time server IP address  
The AutoDome Easy II IP can receive the time signal from a time  
server using various time server protocols, and then use it to  
set the internal clock. The unit polls the time signal  
automatically once every minute.  
Enter the IP address of a time server here.  
Time server type  
Select the protocol that is supported by the selected time  
server. Preferably, you should select the SNTP server as the  
protocol. This supports a high level of accuracy and is required  
for special applications and subsequent function extensions.  
Select Time server for a time server that works with the  
protocol RFC 868.  
12.3  
Basic Mode: Network  
The settings on this page are used to integrate the AutoDome  
Easy II IP into an existing network.  
Some changes only take effect after the unit is rebooted. In this  
case, the Set button changes to Set and Reboot.  
1. Make the desired changes.  
2. Click the Set and Reboot button. The AutoDome Easy II IP  
is rebooted and the changed settings are activated.  
CAUTION!  
If you change the IP address, subnet mask or gateway address,  
the AutoDome Easy II IP is only available under the new  
addresses after the reboot.  
DHCP  
If a DHCP server is employed in the network for the dynamic  
assignment of IP addresses, you can activate acceptance of IP  
addresses automatically assigned to the AutoDome Easy II IP.  
Certain applications (VIDOS, Bosch Video Management System,  
Archive Player, Configuration Manager) use the IP address for  
the unique assignment of the unit. If you use these applications,  
the DHCP server must support the fixed assignment between IP  
address and MAC address, and must be appropriately set up so

Preventive Maintenance | en 127  
16  
Preventive Maintenance  
The following preventive maintenance schedule allows  
detection and correction of minor faults before they become  
serious and cause equipment failure. Periodically perform the  
following:  
Inspect all connecting cables for deterioration or other  
damage.  
Wipe housing with a clean damp cloth.  
Clean the dome/windows with an approved P.C (LEXAN)  
Cleaner (Novus LEXAN cleaner-plastic polish).  
Verify that all the mounting hardware is secure.  
When cleaning the dome bubble heed these warning:  
Do not use alcohol-based solutions to clean the bubble.  
This will cause the bubble to cloud and over time cause  
stress aging, which makes the bubble brittle.  
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 direct sunlight or on very hot days.  
Attaching the Bubble  
The AutoDome Easy II is shipped with the bubble secured to the  
upper housing. Bosch does not recommend removing the  
bubble from the housing. If a situation requires you to remove  
the bubble, however, you must use a Torx T-10 driver to secure  
the three screws on the bubble to the upper housing each with  
a torque of 5 in.-lbs.

BVIP Firmware Updates  
The AutoDome Easy II IP incorporates a network video server in  
the IP module. The primary function of the server is to encode  
video and control data for transmission over a TCP/IP network.  
The AutoDome Easy II IP also allows an operator to update the  
BVIP firmware via the TCP/IP network.  
The latest BVIP firmware is available on the Bosch Security  
Systems Web site. To download the service pack from the Web,  
navigate to www.boschsecurity.us, click the CCTV link, then  
click Cameras, PTZ and navigate to the product page for the  
AutoDome Easy II IP. Then click the Software tab on the  
product page.  
18.1  
18.2  
Upgrading the AutoDome Easy II IP  
The preferred method to update an AutoDome Easy II IP is  
through a direct connection between the camera and a PC. This  
method entails connecting the Ethernet cable from the camera  
directly to the Ethernet port of a PC.  
If the direct-connect method is not practical you can also  
update the AutoDome Easy II IP through a Local Area Network  
(LAN). You cannot, however, update the AutoDome Easy II IP  
through a Wide Area Network (WAN) or via the Internet.  
Beginning the Firmware Update Process  
Use this procedure to connect to your AutoDome Easy II IP and  
to navigate to the Firmware Update page.  
1. Launch Internet Explorer and type the IP address for the  
AutoDome Easy II IP in the Address bar and click Go.  
Internet Explorer opens the Livepage view.  
2. Click the SETTINGS link, located at the top of the page.  
3. Click the Service link in the left pane.  
4. Click the Maintenance link below the Service link.  
5. Click the Search button and navigate to the firmware file  
(*.fw). Then, click OK.  
6. Click the Upload button.

7. Click OK to the warning message to continue the firmware  
upload, or Cancel to stop the upload.  
The page displays a progress bar as the firmware is  
uploaded.  
Note: Once the progress bar reaches 100% the system  
opens the reset page. Allow the reset page to complete its  
action.  
8. Once the reset is complete the upgrade is complete.
