MIC inteox 7100i Introduction | en 7
Bosch Security Systems User Manual 2022-01 | 1.13 |
1.1 System requirements
Our recommendations are:
– Computer with Dual core HyperThreading processor or better
– Graphic card with performance that matches or is better than the resolution of the
camera
– Windows10 or later
– Network access
– Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, or Mozilla Firefox
- or -
Application software, for example, VideoSecurityClient, BoschVideoClient or BVMS.
1.2 Establishing the connection
The unit must have a valid IP address and a compatible subnet mask to operate on your
network. By default, DHCP is pre-set at the factory to On and so your DHCP server assigns an
IP address. With no DHCP server the default address is 192.168.0.1
The Project Assistant app or Configuration Manager (version 7.50 or higher) can be used to
find the IP address. Download the software from https://downloadstore.boschsecurity.com:
1. Start the web browser.
2. Enter the IP address of the device as the URL.
3. During the initial installation, confirm any security questions that show.
Note:
If you cannot connect, the unit may have reached its maximum number of connections.
Depending on the device and network configuration, each unit can have up to 50 web browser
connections, or up to 100 connections via BoschVideoClient or BVMS.
1.3 Password protection in camera
The device is password-protected. The first time that any user accesses the device, the device
will prompt the user to set a password at the service level.
The camera requires a strong password. Follow the prompts in the dialog box, which specifies
what is required. The system measures the strength of the password that you enter.
When you use Configuration Manager to access your device for the first time, you must set the
initial password of the device in Configuration Manager. The Users section (General > Unit
Access > Users) displays the message, "Before you can use this device you have to secure it
with an initial password."
Note: After you set the initial password, a "lock" icon appears next to the device name in the
Devices list in Configuration Manager.
You can also launch the device webpage directly. In the device webpage, an initial password
page appears, displaying input fields and a password strength gauge.
Enter the user name (“service”) and a password in the appropriate fields. Refer to the section
User Management for more information.
After a service-level password is set for the device, the device displays a dialog box that
prompts users to enter the user name (“service”) and the service-level password every time
that they access the device.
1. Fill in the fields User name and Password.
2. Click OK. If the password is correct, the desired page appears.

3 General
3.1 Identification
Device name
Enter a unique, unambiguous name for the device (for example, the installation location of the
device). This name should be easy to identify in a list of devices in your system. The device
name is used for the remote identification of a unit, such as in the event of an alarm.
Do not use any special characters, for example &, in the name. Special characters are not
supported by the system's internal management.
Device ID
Enter a unique identifier for the device. This ID is additional identification for the device.
Video name
Enter a name for the video (for example, HDR ON).
Host name
Enter a host name.
Initiator extension
Add text to an initiator name to make identification easier in large iSCSI systems. This text is
added to the initiator name, separated from it by a full stop. (You can see the initiator name in
the System Overview page.)
3.2 User Management
The section Authentication modes provides information about the authentication modes set
in the camera. A checkmark appears in the checkbox to the left of the mode if the mode is set.
If the mode is not set, the phrase, “No certificate installed” appears to the right of the mode
name.
Password
This field indicates if a password is set for the camera.
Certificate
A check mark in this check box indicates that at least one certificate is loaded onto the
camera. If no certificates are loaded, then “No certificate installed” appears to the right of the
text.
The Escrypt certificate is a root certificate for Bosch Security Systems that proves that the
device meets the following criteria:
– It originates from a Bosch factory that is a secure environment.
– It has not been tampered with.
Escrypt is a Bosch company and Certificate Authority (CA).
Active directory server (ADFS)
A check mark in this check box indicates that the camera uses an active directory server. If the
camera does not use ADFS, then “No certificate installed” appears to the right of the text.
Password management
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 must always start from the highest authorization
level when assigning passwords.
You can define and change a password for each authorization level if you are logged into the
“service” user account.

MIC inteox 7100i General | en 11
Bosch Security Systems User Manual 2022-01 | 1.13 |
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.
A fourth user group, VCA configuration, has the privilege to configure VCA only.
Note: Configuration and use of this user group is available only in Configuration Manager (7.20
or later).

Sensor mode
The sensor mode specifies the base resolution and frame rates for the image quality settings.
Fast moving scenes use more frame rates (50 fps or 60 fps) for better image quality than slow
moving scenes. Adjust this setting as necessary.
This higher resolution (HD 1080p) gives maximum detail in these scenes, but can result in
motion artifacts for fast-moving objects because of the lower frame rates.
Some types of light can show flickering in the image when the frame rate is not synchronized
with the mains power frequency. To avoid this, the sensor mode frame rate should be in line
with the power frequency:
– 50Hz: 25 or 50 fps
– 60Hz: 30 or 60 fps
Select On to output a mirror image of the camera picture.
Note: Privacy masks are not supported in mirror image mode.
Coding standard
