The name is used for remote identification, for example, in the event of an alarm. Choose a name that makes it as easy as possible to identify the location unambiguously. A password prevents unauthorized access to the device. You can use different authorization levels to limit access. Proper password protection is only guaranteed when all higher authorization levels are also protected with a password. Therefore, you always have to start from the highest authorization level when assigning passwords. 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. The maximum password text length is 19 characters and no special 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 and allows all configuration settings to be changed. user is the middle authorization level. At this level you can operate the device, play back recordings, and also control camera, for example, but you cannot change the configuration. live is the lowest authorization level. At this level you can only view the live video image and switch between the different live image displays. 2014.01 v5.9 AM18-Q0670 Bosch Security Systems

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. An incorrect date/time setting could prevent correct recording. The unit can receive the time signal from a time server using various time server protocols and then use it to set the internal clock. The device polls the time signal automatically once every minute. Enter the IP address of a time server. Select the protocol that is supported by the selected time server. It is recommended to select the SNTP server protocol. This protocol provides high accuracy and is required for special applications and future function extensions. Select Time server if the server uses the RFC 868 protocol. 4.3 Network The settings on these pages are used to integrate the device into a network. Some changes only take effect after a reboot.

If using these applications, the DHCP server must support the fixed assignment between IP address and MAC address, and must be appropriately set up so that, once an IP address is assigned, it is retained each time the system is rebooted.

Proper password protection is only guaranteed when all higher authorization levels are also protected with a password. Therefore, you always have to start from the highest authorization level when assigning passwords. 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. The maximum password text length is 19 characters and no special 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 and allows all configuration settings to be changed. user is the middle authorization level. At this level you can operate the device, play back recordings, and also control camera, for example, but you cannot change the configuration. live is the lowest authorization level. At this level you can only view the live video image and switch between the different live image displays. 5.2.1 5.2.2 Enter Password Define and change a separate password for each level.

Device date / Device time 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 devices are operating on the same time. 1. Enter the current date. Since the device time is controlled by the internal clock, it is not necessary to enter the day of the week it is added automatically. 2. Enter the current time or 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. An incorrect date/time setting could prevent correct recording. 5.3.3 5.3.4 Device time zone Select the time zone in which the system is located. Daylight saving time The internal clock can switch automatically between normal and daylight saving time (DST). The unit already contains the data for DST switch-overs for many years in advance. If the date, time and zone have been set up correctly, a DST table is automatically created.
