Connecting BOSCH CCS 1000 D to Your
Computer
Connect BOSCH CCS 1000 D to Ethernet via the connector on the
rear panel of the control unit.
Connect the computer which will be used to manage the discussion
system to the same network.
System Detection
Since the computer and BOSCH are connected to the network
independently, your computer needs to detect the IP address to connect
to the BOSCH, i.e. “detect” the system on the network.
There are several options to initiate such a search.
4

Option 1
Use BOSCH DNS-SD Driver software. It’s available for download on
the BOSCH official website:
https://licensing.boschsecurity.com/software/html/load.htm?1000
Following the link above, find the lines starting with
Windows PC DNS-SD driver to discover CCSD-CU on hostname
and install the version suitable for your operating system (x32 or
x64).
Once the installation is complete, open the command prompt (press
Win+R and run cmd) and enter the following command:
ping ccs1000d.local
The system IP address will be available below the command.
Option 2
Use Advanced IP Scanner  software.
https://www.advanced-ip-scanner.com/
Download the program, launch the scanning and once the process
is over, find BOSCH Security System BV among the devices. The
required IP  address will be displayed in the IP column.
Option 3
Use a traffic analyzer program (e.g. Wireshark) and detect the IP
address by identifying the device by its MAC address.
The MAC address of the discussion system is labeled on the back
of the control unit.
5

If you did not manage to find the IP address with the options listed
above, connect the discussion system to the computer via the Ethernet
cable directly.
Setting the Discussion System via Browser
Once the IP address is detected (see the previous section), open
the control panel of the discussion system. To that end, enter the IP in
the browser’s address bar.
The authorization page will open. Enter admin as your default
username and leave the password blank.
