Creating a Remote Portal account
In this video we will show how to create an account on Bosch Remote Portal, which is required in order to be able to connect a DIVAR IP all-in-one device to Remote Portal and make use of the Remote System Management capabilities:
Registering and unregistering a DIVAR IP all-in-one to Remote Portal
Connecting a DIVAR IP all-in-one to Remote Portal
In the video below, we will show how to connect/register a DIVAR IP all-in-one to Bosch Remote Portal using Remote System Management.
Once the required software is installed on the supported device, the registration method is the same for each device.
Setting a default commissioning company, is an optional step that is also shown. This is only required if your email is assigned to multiple company accounts.
An option that is not shown in the video, is SingleKey ID.
Bosch has introduced SingleKey ID as an identity provider (IdP) to allow a central sign-in to all Bosch applications, services and platforms. To connect the device to Remote Portal by using SingleKey ID, follow the instructions on the screen.
Disconnecting a DIVAR IP all-in-one from Remote Portal
In the video below, we will show how to disconnect/unregister a DIVAR IP all-in-one to Bosch Remote Portal using Remote System Management.
The method exists out of two parts: first on the device itself, the registration is removed. Then, in Remote Portal, the device configuration is removed as well:
Remote System Management licensing
In order to use Remote System Management from Remote Portal after the DIVAR IP all-in-one is connected and registered, a license is required.
Initially, a 30-day trial license is available for each DIVAR IP all-in-one. If in that time period a full license is purchased and activated on the Remote Portal account and the system is set to auto-renew, the purchased license will automatically be used after the trial period expires. If no purchased license is available, the DIVAR IP all-in-one will become unavailable from Remote Portal after the 30-day trial period.
Activating a (trial) license
In the following video we will show how to activate a license (in this example, a trial license) for Remote System Management on a DIVAR IP all-in-one.
Activating a purchased license works the same way as activating a trial license. For seamless remote system management service, make sure to enable the 'Auto-renew" option. This can be done at any time, also during the trial period, and can be found in the same place as shown in the video below:
Adding purchased licenses to Remote Portal
In this video we will show how to add purchased licenses to Bosch Remote Portal. The video is part of a series of videos about Remote System Management, but can also be useful when using Remote Portal for other licenses, as the process is the same:
