Device AccessAssign a unique name to assist in identification. This namesimplifies the management of multiple devices in more extensivesystems.The name is used for remote identification, for example, in theevent of an alarm. Choose a name that makes it as easy aspossible to identify the location unambiguously.A password prevents unauthorized access to the device. You canuse different authorization levels to limit access.Proper password protection is only guaranteed when all higherauthorization levels are also protected with a password.Therefore, you always have to start from the highestauthorization level when assigning passwords.You can define and change a password for each authorizationlevel if you are logged in as service or if the unit is not passwordprotected.Enter the password for the appropriate authorization level here.The maximum password text length is 19 characters and nospecial characters are allowed.The device has three authorization levels: service, user, and live.– service is the highest authorization level. Entering the

correct password gives access to all the functions andallows all configuration settings to be changed.

– user is the middle authorization level. At this level you canoperate the device, play back recordings, and also controlcamera, for example, but you cannot change theconfiguration.

– live is the lowest authorization level. At this level you canonly view the live video image and switch between thedifferent live image displays.

Define and change a separate password for each level. Enter thepassword (19 characters maximum; no special characters) forthe selected level.Re-enter the new password to ensure that there are no typingmistakes.

Date/TimeIf there are multiple devices operating in the system or network,it is important to synchronize their internal clocks. For example,it is only possible to identify and correctly evaluate simultaneousrecordings when all devices are operating on the same time.Device time, date and time zone are shown.4 Click Sync to PC to apply the system time from your

computer to the device.

Note:It is important that the date/time is correct for recording. Anincorrect date/time setting could prevent correct recording. The unit can receive the time signal from a time server usingvarious time server protocols and then use it to set the internalclock. The device polls the time signal automatically once everyminute.Enter the IP address of a time server.Select the protocol that is supported by the selected timeserver. It is recommended to select the SNTP server protocol.This protocol provides high accuracy and is required for specialapplications and future function extensions.Select Time server if the server uses the RFC 868 protocol.

This namesimplifies the management of multiple devices in more extensivesystems.The name is used for remote identification, for example, in theevent of an alarm. Choose a name that makes it as easy aspossible to identify the location unambiguously.You can use additional lines to enter kanji characters.1. Click the + sign to add a new line2. Click the icon next to the new line. A window with a

character map opens.3. Click the required character. The character is inserted into

the Result field.4. In the character map, click the << and >> icons to move

between the different pages of the table, or select a pagefrom the list field.

5. Click the < icon to the right of the Result field to delete thelast character, or click the X icon to delete all characters.

6. Click the OK button to apply the selected characters to thenew line of the name. The window closes.

IDEach device should be assigned a unique identifier that can beentered here as an additional means of identification.

iSCSI Initiator extensionAdd text to an initiator name to make identification easier inlarge iSCSI systems. This text is added to the initiator name,separated from it by a full stop. (You can see the initiator namein the System Overview page.)

PasswordA password prevents unauthorized access to the device. You canuse different authorization levels to limit access.Proper password protection is only guaranteed when all higherauthorization levels are also protected with a password.Therefore, you always have to start from the highestauthorization level when assigning passwords.You can define and change a password for each authorizationlevel if you are logged in as service or if the unit is not passwordprotected.Enter the password for the appropriate authorization level here.The maximum password text length is 19 characters and nospecial characters are allowed.The device has three authorization levels: service, user, and live.– service is the highest authorization level. Entering the

correct password gives access to all the functions andallows all configuration settings to be changed.

– user is the middle authorization level. At this level you canoperate the device, play back recordings, and also controlcamera, for example, but you cannot change theconfiguration.

– live is the lowest authorization level. At this level you canonly view the live video image and switch between thedifferent live image displays.

Enter PasswordDefine and change a separate password for each level. Enter thepassword (19 characters maximum; no special characters) forthe selected level.

Confirm passwordRe-enter the new password to ensure that there are no typingmistakes.

Date/Time

Date formatSelect the required date format.

Device date / Device time If there are multiple devices operating in your system ornetwork, it is important to synchronize their internal clocks. Forexample, it is only possible to identify and correctly evaluatesimultaneous recordings when all devices are operating on thesame time. 1. Enter the current date. Since the device time is controlled

by the internal clock, it is not necessary to enter the day ofthe week – it is added automatically.

2. Enter the current time or click Sync to PC to apply thesystem time from your computer to the device.

Note:It is important that the date/time is correct for recording. Anincorrect date/time setting could prevent correct recording.

Device time zoneSelect the time zone in which the system is located.

Daylight saving timeThe internal clock can switch automatically between normal anddaylight saving time (DST). The unit already contains the datafor DST switch-overs for many years in advance. If the date, timeand zone have been set up correctly, a DST table isautomatically created.If you decide to create alternative daylight saving time dates byediting the table, note that values occur in linked pairs (DSTstart and end dates).

Encoder SettingsThe encoder settings determine the characteristics of the fourstreams generated by the camera. The type of streams that canbe generated are:– HD streams– SD streams– i-frame only streams for recording– M-JPEG streams The bit rates, the encoding interval, and the Group-of-Pictures(GoP) structure and quality, are defined and stored for 8different profiles on the Encoder Profile page. The SD(Standard Definition) resolution is also selected here. The resolution of the two H.264 streams and the pre-definedprofile to be used for each stream is selected on the EncoderStreams page. The maximum frame rate and quality of the JPEGstream is also selected here. The streams and profiles for recording are selected on theRecording Profiles page. The Encoder Regions page allows you to select different qualitylevels for various areas of the image. This can help in reducingthe bit rate. For example, important objects can be selected toprovide higher quality encoding than selected background areas.

Encoder ProfileProfiles are rather complex and include a number of parametersthat interact with one another, so it is generally best to use thepre-defined profiles. Only change a profile if completely familiarwith all the configuration options.

Pre-defined profilesEight definable profiles are available. The pre-defined profilesgive priority to different parameters.– Profile 1

High resolution for high bandwidth connections– Profile 2

High resolution with lower data rate– Profile 3

High resolution for low bandwidth connections– Profile 4

Standard resolution for high bandwidth connections– Profile 5

Standard resolution with lower data rate– Profile 6

Standard resolution for low bandwidth connections– Profile 7

Standard resolution for DSL connections– Profile 8

Low resolution for mobile phone connections

Changing a profileThe pre-defined profiles can be changed (a pre-defined profilecan always be recalled by using the Default button). To change a profile, select it by clicking its tab, then change theparameters within that profile.If a setting outside the permitted range for a parameter isentered, the nearest valid value is substituted when the settingsare saved.

Profile nameIf required, enter a new name for the profile.

Target bit rateTo optimize use of the bandwidth in the network, limit the datarate for the device. The target data rate should be set accordingto the desired picture quality for typical scenes with noexcessive motion.For complex images or frequent changes of image content dueto frequent movements, this limit can temporarily be exceededup to the value entered in the Maximum bit rate field.

Maximum bit rateThis maximum data rate is not exceeded under anycircumstances. Depending on the video quality settings for the I-frames and P-frames, this can result in individual images beingskipped.The value entered here must be at least 10% higher than thevalue entered in the Target bit rate field. If the value enteredhere is too low, it is automatically adjusted.

Encoding intervalThe Encoding interval slider determines the interval at whichimages are encoded and transmitted. This can be particularlyadvantageous with low bandwidths. The image rate in ips(images per second) is displayed next to the slider.

Expert SettingsIf necessary, use the expert settings to adapt the I-frame qualityand the P-frame quality to specific requirements. The setting isbased on the H.264 quantization parameter (QP).

GOP structureSelect the structure you require for the Group of Pictures(GOP). Depending on whether you place greater priority onhaving the lowest possible delay (IP frames only) or using aslittle bandwidth possible, you choose IP, IBP or IBBP. (GOP isnot available for megapixel cameras.)

Averaging periodSelect the appropriate averaging period as a means of stabilizingthe long term bit rate.

I-frame distanceUse the slider to set the distance between I-frames to Auto or tobetween 3 and 60. An entry of 3 means that every third image isan I-frame.The lower the number, the more I-frames aregenerated.

Min. P-frame QPIn the H.264-protocol, the Quantization Parameter (QP)specifies the degree of compression and thus the image qualityfor every frame. The lower the QP value, the higher the encodingquality. A higher quality produces a higher data load. Typical QPvalues are between 18 and 30. Define the lower limit for thequantization of the P-frames here, and thus the maximumachievable quality of the P-frames.

I/P-frame delta QPThis parameter sets the ratio of the I-frame QP to the P-frameQP. For example, you can set a lower value for I-frames bymoving the slide control to a negative value. Thus, the quality ofthe I-frames relative to the P-frames is improved. The total dataload will increase, but only by the portion of I-frames.

To obtain the highest quality at the lowest bandwidth, even inthe case of increased movement in the picture, configure thequality settings as follows:1. Observe the coverage area during normal movement in the

preview images.2. Set the value for Min. P-frame QP to the highest value at

which the image quality still meets your needs.3. Set the value for I/P-frame delta QP to the lowest possible

value. This is how to save bandwidth and memory in normalscenes. The image quality is retained even in the case ofincreased movement since the bandwidth is then filled upto the value that is entered under Maximum bit rate.

RecordingImages can be recorded to an appropriately configured iSCSIsystem or, for cameras with an SD slot, locally to an SD card. SD cards are the ideal solution for shorter storage times andtemporary recordings. They can be used for local alarmrecording or to improve the overall reliability of video recording.For long-term authoritative images use an appropriately sizediSCSI system. Two recording tracks are available (Recording 1 and Recording2). The encoder streams and profiles can be selected for each ofthese tracks for both standard and alarm recordings.Ten recording profiles are available where these recordingtracks can be defined differently. These profiles are then usedfor building schedules. A Video Recording Manager (VRM) can control all recordingwhen accessing an iSCSI system. The VRM is an externalprogram for configuring recording tasks for video servers. Forfurther information, contact your local customer service atBosch Security Systems.

Storage Management

Device managerCheck the Managed by VRM box to let an external VideoRecording Manager (VRM) manage all recording. No furthersettings can be configured.

Note:Activating or deactivating VRM causes the current storagesettings to be lost; they can only be restored through re-configuration.

Note:For suitable devices, additional analysis algorithms withcomprehensive functions, such as IVMD and IVA, are alsoavailable. Refer to the IVA documentation for more informationon using these.

Motion detectorMotion detection is available for the Motion+ analysis type. Forthe 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 switchingon and off, or changes in the light level caused by cloudmovement on a sunny day can trigger unintended responsesfrom the motion detector and generate false alarms. Run aseries of tests at different times of the day and night to ensurethat the video sensor is operating as intended. For indoorsurveillance, ensure constant lighting of the areas during the dayand at night.

SensitivitySensitivity is available for the Motion+ analysis type. The basicsensitivity of the motion detector can be adjusted for theenvironmental conditions to which the camera is subject. Thesensor reacts to variations in the brightness of the video image.The darker the observation area, the higher the value that mustbe selected.

Minimum object sizeSpecify the number of sensor fields that a moving object mustcover to generate an alarm. This setting prevents objects thatare too small from triggering an alarm. A minimum value of 4 isrecommended. This value corresponds to four sensor fields.

SensitivityThe basic sensitivity of the tamper detection can be adjusted forthe environmental conditions to which the camera is subject.The algorithm reacts to the differences between the referenceimage and the current video image. The darker the observationarea, the higher the value that must be selected.

Trigger delay [s]Set delayed alarm triggering here. The alarm is only triggeredafter a set time interval in seconds has elapsed and then only ifthe triggering condition still exists. If the original condition hasbeen restored before this time interval elapses, the alarm is nottriggered. This avoids false alarms triggered by short-termchanges, for example, cleaning activities in the direct field ofvision of the camera.

Global change (slider)Set how large the global change in the video image must be foran alarm to be triggered. This setting is independent of thesensor fields selected under Select Area. Set a high value iffewer sensor fields need to change to trigger an alarm. With alow value, it is necessary for changes to occur simultaneously ina large number of sensor fields to trigger an alarm. This optionallows detection, independently of motion alarms, manipulationof the orientation or location of a camera resulting from turningthe camera mount bracket, for example.

Global changeActivate this function if the global change, as set with the Globalchange slide control, should trigger an alarm.

Scene too brightActivate this function if tampering associated with exposure toextreme light (for instance, shining a flashlight directly on theobjective) should trigger an alarm. The average brightness of thescene provides a basis for recognition.

Scene too noisyActivate this function if tampering associated with EMCinterference (noisy scene as the result of a strong interferencesignal in the vicinity of the video lines) should trigger an alarm.

Reference checkSave a reference image that can be continuously compared withthe current video image. If the current video image in themarked areas differs from the reference image, an alarm istriggered. This detects tampering that would otherwise not bedetected, for example, if the camera is turned.1. Click Reference to save the currently visible video- image

as a reference.2. Click Select Area and select the areas in the reference

image that are to be monitored.3. Check the box Reference check to activate the on-going

check. The stored reference image is displayed in black andwhite below the current video image, and the selectedareas are marked in yellow.

4. Select the Disappearing edges or Appearing edges optionto specify the reference check once again.

Disappearing edgesThe area selected in the reference image should contain aprominent structure. If this structure is concealed or moved, thereference check triggers an alarm. If the selected area is toohomogenous, so that concealing and moving the structure wouldnot trigger an alarm, then an alarm is triggered immediately toindicate the inadequate reference image.

MulticastThe camera can enable multiple receivers to receive the videosignal simultaneously. The stream is either duplicated and thendistributed to multiple receivers (Multi-unicast), or it is sent as asingle stream to the network, where it is simultaneouslydistributed to multiple receivers in a defined group (Multicast). Multicast operation requires a multicast-enabled network thatuses UDP and the Internet Group Management protocol(IGMP V2). The network must support group IP addresses.Other group management protocols are not supported. The TCPprotocol does not support multicast connections. A special IP address from 225.0.0.0 to 239.255.255.255 (class Daddress) must be configured for multicast operation in amulticast-enabled network. The multicast address can be thesame for multiple streams, however, it is necessary to use adifferent port in each case. The settings must be made individually for each stream. Enter adedicated multicast address and port for each stream. Switchbetween the streams by clicking the appropriate tabs.
