CM751B Installer Reference Guide
4Bosch Security Systems 5/13 CM751BIRG FTR1.0
Introduction
The CM751B module allows you to interface compatible
security control panels to the building’s hard wired IP
connection point using a CAT 5E connection cable. Once
congured and operating you will be able to report to
monitoring centres that support the available IP report-
ing formats and to upload/download to the control panel
through an internet or intranet connection.
Getting Started
There are four main steps required to congure the
CM751B for reporting to the control room. The instruc-
tions assume that you are installing a new IP module and
that you are using the Solution Link RAS software.
1. Install the CM751B hardware on the control panel.
2. Congure the module’s features and parameters.
3. Congure the control panel for IP reporting.
4. Congure the control panel for IP remote access.
A number of IP connection tools are included in the Solu-
tion Link RAS software and it is recommended that you
make use of these when conguring the CM751B. At this
point you should connect your laptop to the same LAN
that the CM751B is connected and then run Solution Link.
If the premises has a Network Administrator you should
work with them to complete the installation as a number
of steps listed below can be avoided if the administrator
can provide you with the required information.
It is important at this point to record the
MAC or physical address of the CM751B IP module
for future reference. You can record this
information in the“Customer Details”on page 11
i
Note
Figure 1: MAC Address Location
Step 1 - Installing the IP Module
Ensure that the panel is powered o before proceeding.
Plug the 3 short plastic standos into the module and
then plug it onto the Expansion Port header pins on the
panel as shown in “Figure 2: CM751B Module Installed On
Solution 144” on page 4. If you are connecting the
CM751B to a panel which also has a CM101B Voice Mod-
ule tted then you should use the longer standos from
the HW750 Riser Kit.
Once installed, connect the ethernet cable to the CM751B
and re power the control panel. Observe the module’s
green Status LED. Under normal operation the Status LED
will remain on steady for approximately 3 seconds follow-
ing power up while the system congures the module.
During this process if the connected internal network is
DHCP enabled, the module will request an IP address from
DHCP server. Once the module receives an address the
Status LED will begin to ash slowly.
If the Status LED is ashing fast then the module has not
received an IP address or there is a IP address conict. If
this occurs check all LAN wiring to the module and or
contact the network administrator for assistance.
Figure 2: CM751B Module Installed On Solution 144
Step 2 - Conguring the IP Module’s Network Settings
The CM751B module will need a xed or reserved IP
address on the network that it is to be connected to. If
the network administrator is available then they should
provide you with the Default Gateway, Subnet Mask and
IP Address to be used.
If you are trying to determine this information without
an administrator then you will need to obtain the Default
Gateway and Subnet mask for the network. To do this run
the IPCONFIG command on your laptop or another PC
which is connected to the same network as the module.
Figure 3: IP Cong Showing Gateway and Subnet Mask

CM751B Installer Reference Guide
5
Bosch Security Systems 5/13 CM751BIRG FTR1.0
IPCONFIG will list the Default Gateway, Subnet Mask as
well as the IP address of the PC which executed the com-
mand. Note this is not the IP address assigned to the
CM751B and is not needed to complete the installation.
You can also access this information by running Control
Panel, Network Connections and then double click on Lo-
cal Area Connection and select the support tab.
Figure 4: Local Area Connection Status
Once you have this information, create a new customer
record in Solution Link or open an existing one if you are
adding the CM751B module to an existing customer.
From the Customer Panel form, set the default connec-
tion method to Ethernet (TCP/IP) and then press the Auto
Detect button to launch the Network Assistant.
Figure 5: Customer Panel Form
Press the OK button and the assistant will begin scan-
ning the private network LAN for the presence of CM751B
modules. If more than one module is found, select the
one from the list whose MAC address matches the one
you are installing and press the OK button.
Figure 6: Solution Link Network Assistant
You should now be able to establish a RAS session with
the panel over the local or internal network connection.
This will only be possible provided that the laptop or
PC running Solution Link is on the same network as the
CM751B module.
Click the panel button on the tool bar followed by the
connect button and then select Ethernet to start the con-
nection.
Figure 7: Select the Ethernet Connection Method
Figure 8: RAS Connection Progress Dialog
Once connected, upload the panel data. Solution Link
will compare the panel data with the data in the database
and will then display a list of dierences similar to those
shown in “Figure 9: Uploaded Dierences”on page 6.

CM751B Installer Reference Guide
6Bosch Security Systems 5/13 CM751BIRG FTR1.0
Figure 9: Uploaded Dierences
Move to the Devices tab and select detail view, then scroll
down or use the navigation tree to locate the Ethernet
Module section. Right click on the Physical Address (MAC)
eld and select the MAC address which is in the database.
This should match the MAC Address of the module you
are installing.
Review any other highlighted dierences and then save
the changes to the database.
Figure 10: MAC Address Selection
Go to the Ethernet Module section in the Devices tab and
uncheck the “Obtain IP Address Automatically” option
then enter the IP Address of the CM751B, the Subnet Mask
and the Default Gateway in the elds provided and then
save the changes.
Figure 11: Subnet Mask and Default Gateway Entry
Step 3 - Conguring the Panel for IP Reporting
Before you will be able to congure the panel for IP
reporting you will need to make sure you have the rel-
evant information from the control room. The following is
required,
1. IP Address for the base station’s IP Receiver.
2. IP Port for the base station’s IP Receiver.
3. Poll Rate.
4. Acknowledge Wait Time.
5. Reporting Format.
6. If Conettix NNC Anti Replay format is being used,
you will need the base station allocated NNC
Number.
7. If encryption is required you will need the base
station allocated Encryption Key.
Move to the Reporting Route section on the Comms tab
and set the transmission format to Ethernet format for
Destination 1, 2 or both as required.
Figure 12: Conguring the Transmission Format

CM751B Installer Reference Guide
7
Bosch Security Systems 5/13 CM751BIRG FTR1.0
Move to the IP Reporting section on the Comms tab and
enter the Base Station Receiver IP Address, IP Port and
other parameters as supplied by the control room. Enter
the details in the appropriate Destination as required.
Figure 13: Conguring the Base Station’s IP Settings
If you are using the Conettix NNC anti replay feature or
data encryption move to the Ethernet Module section on
the Devices tab and enter respective information. The
values entered here must match those in the base station
or communication will fail.
To remove encryption set the key back to all zeros or the
factory default settings.
Figure 14: Conguring the Encryption Settings
Step 4 - Conguring IP Remote Access
When attempting a remote connection to a site that has a
CM751B module tted the site’s public IP address will be
required. In many cases the site’s public IP address is dy-
namically allocated by the ISP and therefore it can change
at any time.
To cater for this situation the CM751B module will send
a periodic message to a proprietary central IP Resolution
Server (IPRS) which maintains a record of the site’s current
public IP Address. When you attempt the remote con-
nection using Solution Link the software will provide you
with the customers current public IP address.
Figure 15: Conguring IP Remote Access
IP Remote Access
If required you can congure the module to only accept
incoming connections from a specic IP Address. In the
default state the RAS IP Address is set to 000.000.000.000
for both users and installers and this allows a connection
to the panel from any IP Address. To limit access so that a
RAS connection can only be established from only one IP
address enter it here.
This option should be used with caution and should only
be used if you have a static public IP address and you only
want / need to connect to the panel from one location.
If a UDP connection is necessary for remote access then
you will also need to program this option. See “UDP Pro-
tocol Options” on page 8 for more information.
The RAS IP port is defaulted to port 07701 for both users
and installers. This must be programmed the same in the
panel and Solution Link RAS software.
You will need to create a port forwarding rule on the cus-
tomers router to direct incoming trac on this port to the
CM751B module’s private IP Address.
If you attempt an IP connection with an
incorrect RAS security PIN then after 3
attempts to panel will lockout for the IP RAS
lockout time period programmed.

Figure 16: Using the IP Resolution Server Tool
Port Forwarding and IP Address Reservation
This is by far the most likely place where errors can be
made due to the fact that there are so many dierent
routers in the market place.
Essentially to gain access remotely to the CM751B for an
upload/download session the client’s router will require
a rule to be created that opens and directs all IP trac
coming into the router for port 07701 (default IP RAS Port)
to the internal IP address of the CM751B which is pro-
grammed in MENU 6-6-0 on the Solution 144.
Figure 17: Static Public IP Address Option
You will also need to make sure that the DHCP server is
congured to reserve or lock down the IP Address which
was assigned to the CM751B module when it was rst
connected to the LAN. See the Module IP Address loca-
tion which is MENU 6-6-0 on the Solution 144 panel.
If the port forwarding is not correctly setup
then you will not be able to connect to the
panel remotely via IP. Dial up RAS connections
are not eected and can still be used.
i
Note
UDP Protocol Options
Before connecting to a remote panel the installer needs
to decide between one of two internet protocols UDP or
TCP. UDP (User Datagram Protocol) is a connectionless
protocol.
The packets of exchanged data are smaller and with less
overhead however the IP network does not guarantee re-
ceipt. Although UDP is connectionless, the RAS software
application conrms delivery of each packet so although
the layer does not guarantee delivery, the application
does so there should be no concerns using UDP as a trans-
port method. TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) is one
of the main protocols in IP networks. TCP establishes a
full connection to exchange streams of data between two
points and the network guarantees delivery.
Which protocol should you use? If you are able to allocate
and open more than a single port at an installation or If
you intend to remote connect to sites using multiple PCs
that are part of an oce network or behind a rewall then
you would be best served by selecting TCP as your pre-
ferred connection method.
If however you are at a site that will only allow you to
open a single port and your reporting format is TCP based
like the CSV IP format, then you have no choice but to
select UDP for RAS connections. UDP transactions are
faster but depending on your network you may need to
marshal packets (port forward) to the PC running Solution
Link RAS software. By default the CM751B is congured
for Remote Access using TCP/IP protocol.
