Setup and Installation

1. Unpacking and Inspection

Carefully unpack all components and verify the contents against the packing list. Inspect the camera and accessories for any signs of damage during transit. If any items are missing or damaged, contact your supplier immediately.

• Bosch Dinion HD 720p 60 IVA Camera (NBN-71013-BA)
• Mounting bracket (if included with specific kit)
• Documentation (this manual, safety instructions)

2. Mounting Considerations

Select a suitable mounting location that provides the desired field of view and is protected from extreme weather conditions, if applicable. Ensure the mounting surface is strong enough to support the camera's weight (approximately 819.28 g).

• Mount the camera securely to a stable surface (wall, ceiling, pole).
• Ensure clear line of sight to the area being monitored.
• Avoid direct sunlight or strong light sources pointing into the lens, which can cause glare.

3. Power and Network Connection

The NBN-71013-BA camera supports Power over Ethernet (PoE), simplifying installation by delivering both power and data over a single Ethernet cable. Alternatively, it can be powered via a separate power supply (not included).

• Connect a standard RJ45 Ethernet cable from your PoE-enabled network switch or injector to the camera's Ethernet port.
• If not using PoE, connect a compatible 12V DC power adapter (check specifications for exact voltage and amperage requirements) to the camera's power input.
• Ensure the network connection is active and configured correctly for IP camera operation.

Operation

1. Initial Configuration

After connecting the camera to the network, it will obtain an IP address (either via DHCP or a default static IP). Use the Bosch Configuration Manager software or a web browser to access the camera's web interface for initial setup.

• Discover the camera's IP address using Bosch Configuration Manager or a network scanner.
• Open a web browser and enter the camera's IP address.
• Log in using the default credentials (refer to the camera's quick start guide for default username/password, typically admin/admin or similar).
• Change the default password immediately for security purposes.
• Configure network settings, date/time, and video streaming parameters.

2. Video Monitoring and Recording

Once configured, the camera can be integrated into a Video Management System (VMS) or accessed directly via its web interface for live viewing and recording.

• Access live video streams through the web interface or VMS client software.
• Configure recording schedules and motion detection settings within the camera or VMS.
• Utilize the camera's SDXC card slot for local storage of video recordings, if desired.

3. Intelligent Video Analytics (IVA)
