Operation Manual

Recording format
Select a format for audio recording. Select L16 or AAC (Advanced Audio Coding) if you want
better audio quality with higher sampling rates. Note that the L16 standard requires
approximately eight times the bandwidth of the format G.711.
Pixel Counter
Counts the number of pixels in a defined image area. The pixel counter allows the installer to
easily verify that the camera installation fulfills any regulatory or specific customer
requirements, for example, calculating the pixel resolution of the face of a person passing a
doorway monitored by the camera.

Storage Management
You can record the images from the camera on various local storage media (user-supplied SD,
SDHC, or SDXC memory card) or on an appropriately configured iSCSI system.
It is also possible to let the VRM Video Recording Manager control all recording with accessing
an iSCSI system. This is an external program for configuring recording tasks for video servers.
For further information please contact your local customer service at Bosch Security Systems
Inc.
Device manager
If you activate the Managed by VRM option in this screen, the VRM Video Recording Manager
will manage all recording and you will not be able to configure any further settings here.
!
Caution!
Activating or deactivating VRM causes the current settings to be lost; they can only be
restored through reconfiguration.
Recording media
Select the required recording media here so that you can then activate them and configure the
recording parameters.
iSCSI Media
If you want to use an iSCSI system as a recording medium, you must set up a connection to
the required iSCSI system and set the configuration parameters.
Notice!
The iSCSI storage system selected must be available on the network and completely set up.
Amongst other things, it must have an IP address and be divided into logical drives (LUN).
1. Enter the IP address of the required iSCSI destination in the iSCSI IP address field.
2. If the iSCSI destination is password protected, enter this into the Password field.
3. Click the Read button. The connection to the IP address will be established. In the
Storage overview field, you can see the corresponding logical drives.
Local Media
The supported local recording media are displayed in the Storage overview field.
