1 Browser connection
A computer with a web browser (Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, or Mozilla Firefox) is used
to receive live images, control the unit, and replay stored sequences. The unit is configured
over the network using the browser.
1.1 System requirements
Our recommendations are:
– Computer with Dual core HyperThreading processor or better
– Graphic card with performance that matches or is better than the resolution of the
camera
– Windows10 or later
– Network access
– Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, or Mozilla Firefox
- or -
Application software, for example, VideoSecurityClient, BoschVideoClient or BVMS.
1.2 Establishing the connection
The unit must have a valid IP address and a compatible subnet mask to operate on your
network. By default, DHCP is pre-set at the factory to On and so your DHCP server assigns an
IP address. With no DHCP server the default address is 192.168.0.1
The Project Assistant app or Configuration Manager (version 7.50 or higher) can be used to
find the IP address. Download the software from https://downloadstore.boschsecurity.com:
1. Start the web browser.
2. Enter the IP address of the device as the URL.
3. During the initial installation, confirm any security questions that show.
If a RADIUS server is used for network access control (802.1x authentication), you must
configure the device before the device can communicate with the network.
To configure the device, connect it directly to a computer using a network cable and then set
the service-level password.
Note:
If you cannot connect, the unit may have reached its maximum number of connections.
Depending on the device and network configuration, each unit can have up to 50 web browser
connections, or up to 100 connections via BoschVideoClient or BVMS.
1.3 Password protection in camera
The device is password-protected. The first time that any user accesses the device, the device
will prompt the user to set a password at the service level.
The camera requires a strong password. Follow the prompts in the dialog box, which specifies
what is required. The system measures the strength of the password that you enter.
Make sure the password obeys these conditions:
– 8 to 19 characters in length
– Upper and lower case letters
– Minimum of 1 digit
– Minimum of 1 special character
These special characters are not allowed: '@', '&', '<', '>', ':', '+'

4.5.3 Positioning
The Positioning feature describes the location of the camera and the perspective in the
camera’s field of view.
Perspective information is essential to Video Analytics, as it enables the system to compensate
for the illusory smallness of distant objects.
Only through use of perspective information is it possible to distinguish objects such as
persons, bicycles, cars and trucks, and accurately compute their real size and speeds as they
move through 3D space.
However, to calculate perspective information accurately, the camera must be directed at a
single, flat horizontal plane. Multiple and inclined planes, hills, stairs can falsify perspective
information and produce incorrect object information such as size and speed.
Mounting position
The mounting position describes the perspective information that is also often called
calibration.
In general, the mounting position is determined by the parameters of the camera such as
height, roll angle, tilt angle, and focal length.
The height of the camera must always be entered manually. Whenever possible, roll angle and
tilt angle are provided by the camera itself. The focal length is provided, if the camera has a
built-in lens.
Tilt angle [°]
Enter the tilt angle if the value is not determined by the camera.
The tilt angle describes the angle between the horizontal and the camera.
A tilt angle of 0° means that the camera is mounted parallel to the ground.
A tilt angle of 90° means that the camera is mounted vertically in bird’s eye view perspective.
The flatter the tilt angle is set, the less accurate the estimate of object sizes and speeds will
be. The settings must be between 0° and 90°. Estimates are no longer possible when you have
reached 0°.
Roll angle [°]
Enter the roll angle if the value is not determined by the camera.
The roll angle describes the angle between the roll axis and the horizontal plane. The angle
can deviate from the horizontal by up to 45°.
Height [m]
Enter the height in meters of the position of the camera.
The height describes the vertical distance from the camera to the ground plane of the
captured image. Typically the elevation of the mounted camera above the ground.
Focal length [mm]
Enter the focal length in millimeters of the position of the camera if the value is not
determined by the camera.

The focal length is determined by the lens. The shorter the focal length, the wider the field of
view. The longer the focal length, the narrower the field of view and the higher the
magnification.
Show sensor values...
Click to automatically see the camera parameters, for example, Tilt angle [°], Roll angle [°]
and Focal length [mm]. These calibration values are measured by the device sensors. Click OK
to transfer them to the Positioning settings page.
Sketch
Click to improve the automatic calibration. The Sketch-based calibration window is displayed.
The Sketch functionality offers an additional, half-automatic calibration method. This
calibration method allows you to describe the perspective in the camera’s field of view by
drawing vertical lines, ground lines, and ground angles in the camera image and entering the
correct size and angle. Use the Sketch functionality if the result of the automatic calibration is
not sufficient.
You can also combine this manual calibration with the values for roll angle, tilt angle, height
and focal length calculated by the camera or entered manually.
Select the Calculate check box to obtain the roll angle, tilt angle, height and focal length from
the sketched calibration elements - vertical lines, ground lines and angles - you have placed in
the camera.
Clear the Calculate check box to enter a value manually or to refresh to the values provided by
the camera itself.
Calibrating cameras using the Sketch-based calibration window
To determine non-automatically set values:
1. Enter the value for tilt angle, roll angle, height and focal length if the value is known, for
example, by measuring the height of the camera above the ground, or reading the focal
length from the lens.
2. For each value that is still unknown, select the Calculate check box, then place a
calibration element on the camera image. Use these calibration elements to trace
individual outlines of the displayed environment in the camera image and define the
position and size of these lines and angles.
– Click to place a vertical line across the image.
A vertical line corresponds to a line that is perpendicular to the ground plane, such
as a door frame, edge of a building or a lamp post.
– Click to place a line across the ground in the image.
A line on ground corresponds to a line that is on the ground plane, such as a road
marking.
– Click to place an angle on the ground in the image.
The angle on ground represents an angle lying on the horizontal ground plane, such
as the corner of a carpet or parking bay markings.
3. Adjust the calibration elements to the situation:
– Enter the real size of a line or angle. To do this, select the line or angle, then enter
the size in the corresponding box.
Example: You have placed a line on ground across the lower side of an automobile.
You know that the automobile is 4m long. Enter 4m as the length of the line.
– Adjust the position or length of a line or angle. To do this, drag the line or angle or
move the end points to the desired position in the camera image.

– Remove a line or angle. To do this, select the line or angle, then click the trash can
icon.
Note:
Blue lines indicate calibration elements added by you.
White lines represent the element as it should be positioned on the camera image based
on the current calibration results or the determined calibration data.
i
Notice!
If the distance to the camera (geolocation) is not relevant, it is enough to determine height
and focal length in relation to each other. This allows a simple calibration by marking 2-3
persons ‑ each with a vertical line ‑ and setting their size. 1,80m (71 in.) for all is sufficient.
Use at least one person in the front and one person in the background of the image for best
results.
Coordinate system
Select the coordinate system and enter the appropriate values in the additional input fields
that appear depending on the coordinate system selected.
The Coordinate system feature describes the position of the camera in a local Cartesian or
the global WGS 84 coordinate system. The camera and the objects tracked by the video
analytics are displayed on a map.
Cartesian
The Cartesian coordinate system describes each point in the space by a combination of the
position on three orthogonal axes X, Y and Z. A right-handed coordinate system is used, where
X and Y span the ground plane and Z describes the elevation of the ground plane.
X [m]
The location of the camera on the ground on the X-axis.
Y [m]
The location of the camera on the ground on the Y-axis.
Z [m]
The elevation of the ground plane. To determine the elevation of the camera, add the Z [m]
value and the Height [m] value of the camera.

84) or on the X-axis (Cartesian). If the camera is directed towards the north (WGS 84) or the
Y-axis (Cartesian), the azimuth is 90°.
WGS 84
The WGS 84 coordinate system is a spherical coordinate system description of the world and
used in many standards including GPS.
Latitude
Latitude is the north-south position of the camera in the spherical coordinate system WGS 84.
Longitude
Longitude is the east-west position of the camera in the spherical coordinate system WGS 84.
Ground level [m]
The elevation of the ground above sea level. To determine the elevation of the camera, add the
Ground level [m] value and the Height [m] value of the camera.

response to PTZ data and images. Quality of Service (QoS) is the set of techniques to manage
network resources. QoS manages the delay, delay variation (jitter), bandwidth, and packet
loss parameters to guarantee the ability of a network to deliver predictable results. QoS
identifies the type of data in a data packet and divides the packets into traffic classes that can
be prioritized for forwarding.
Consult with your network administrator for assistance configuring the Audio, Video, Control,
and the Alarm video settings, and to select the appropriate Post-alarm time.
Post-alarm time has a time period from 0 s [seconds] to 3 h [hours]; 15 s [seconds] is the

4.8.5 Multicast
The device can enable multiple receivers to receive the video signal simultaneously. The
stream is either duplicated and then distributed to multiple receivers (Multi-unicast), or it is
sent as a single stream to the network, where it is simultaneously distributed to multiple
receivers in a defined group (Multicast).
Multicast operation requires a multicast-enabled network that uses UDP and the Internet
Group Management protocol (IGMPV2). The network must support group IP addresses. Other
group management protocols are not supported. The TCP protocol does not support multicast
connections.
A special IP address from 225.0.0.0 to 239.255.255.255 (classD address) must be configured
for multicast operation in a multicast-enabled network. The multicast address can be the same
for multiple streams, however, it is necessary to use a different port in each case.
The settings must be made individually for each stream. Enter a dedicated multicast address
and port for each stream.
The video channels can be individually selected for each stream.
Enable
Enable simultaneous data reception on receivers that need to activate the multicast function.
To do this, check the box and 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 a 0.0.0.0 setting, 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.)

Each camera has a hardware reset button. You may need to press the reset button to reset the
camera to factory defaults if you encounter the following circumstances:
– You can power up the camera but cannot log on to the camera using the web browser.
– The camera doesn’t start up, or fails to power up via PoE.
– The camera cannot search an IP address.
– The camera’s firmware crashed.
– You forgot the password to access the camera.
– The image becomes frozen.
– You cannot update the firmware.
– The camera disconnects from the network at random and needs a reboot.
– The camera no longer finds pre-positions (preset positions).
– You cannot configure the camera using the web browser.
– The camera has no video out.

Notice!
A factory default deletes all camera settings including passwords, network settings, and
image settings.
Complete the following sequence of steps only if you have no other option to restore
operation to the camera.
Steps to complete a hardware reset for all camera models
1. Apply power to the camera. Search for the IP address, and then log on to the camera
using the web browser. (Note: You can use Configuration Manager to identify the IP
address.)
2. Find the hardware reset button on the camera block. (See each section below to locate
the reset button for your camera model.)
3. Push and hold the reset button for more than 3 seconds. The red LED indicator on the
PCBA board will begin flashing to show that the hardware reset started.
4. Let the camera complete a self-check. When the self-check completes, the red LED will
turn off.
5. Search again for the IP address. Access the camera using the web browser. Set the initial
password for the camera.
For DINION inteox 7100i IR, the reset button is in a slot in the back of the camera, next to the
SD card slot. To access the reset button, remove the cover.
For FLEXIDOME inteox 7100i, the reset button is next to the LED light. To access the reset
button, remove the camera bubble.
