Bosch Security Systems User Manual 2017.11 | 1.2 |
1 Browser connection
A computer with Microsoft Internet Explorer is used to receive live images, control the unit,
and replay stored sequences. The unit is configured over the network using the browser.
1.1 Systems requirements
Our recommendations are:
– Computer with Intel Skylake processor or better
– Intel HD530 graphic card with performance that matches or is better than the resolution
of the camera
– Windows7 or later operating system
– Network access
– Internet Explorer version 11 or later
– or –
Application software, for example, VideoSecurityClient, BoschVideoClient or Bosch
Video Management System.
Note:
To see live images in your browser it might be necessary to download and install the MPEG-
ActiveX from the Bosch download store.
1.2 Establishing the connection
The unit must have a valid IP address to operate on your network and a compatible subnet
mask.
By default, DHCP is pre-set at the factory to On plus Link-Local so a DHCP server assigns an
IP address or, if no DHCP server is available, a link-local address (auto-IP) is assigned within
the range 169.254.1.0 to 169.254.254.255.
You can use IP Helper or Configuration Manager to find the IP address. Download the software
from http://downloadstore.boschsecurity.com.
1. Start the Web browser.
2. Enter the IP address of the unit as the URL.
3. During initial installation, confirm any security questions that appear.
If a RADIUS server is used for network access control (802.1x authentication), you must
configure the device before the device can communicate with the network.
To configure the device, connect it directly to a computer using a network cable and then set
the service-level password.
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 Bosch Video Management
System.
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.

6en | Browser connection MIC IP starlight 7000i
2017.11 | 1.2 | User Manual Bosch Security Systems
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.

Making Changes
Each configuration screen shows the current settings. You can change the settings by entering
new values or by selecting a predefined value from a list field.
Not every page has a Set button. Changes to pages without a Set button are set immediately.
If a page does show a Set button, you must click the Set button for a change to take effect.
Notice!
Save each change with the associated Set button.
Clicking the Set button saves the settings only in the current field. Changes in any other fields
are ignored.
Some changes only take effect after the unit is rebooted. In this case, the Set button changes
to Set and Reboot.
1. Make the desired changes.
2. Click the Set and Reboot button. The camera reboots and the changed settings are
activated.
All settings are backed up in camera memory so they are not lost even if the power fails. The
exception is the time settings, which are lost after 1 hour without power if no central time
server is selected.
2.3 Playback
The Playback page is used for playing back recorded sequences.
