Question  What's new or fixed in Project Assistant 1.2.2? Answer Next to general stability improvements and bug fixes, version 1.2.2 of the Project Assistant introduces the following new feature on all three platforms: Allow re-configuration of a camera, e.g. wirelessly adjust the field of view of a FLEXIDOME IP starlight 8000i , while local recording is running. One bug fix worth mentioning explicitly is that we addressed a connectivity issue, which was faced, when connecting wirelessly to multiple FLEXIDOME IP starlight 8000i cameras one after another. Related News We have published a new Excel template file that makes the import of existing information into the Project Assistant even easier. Feel free to check out the updated Knowledge Base article. Further information can be found in the release letter attached. Best regards, Your Project Assistant Team!

  Issue: The Bosch VRM Monitor page does not open correctly, but instead displays an Error. Any Replay client requesting video from the  Bosch Video Recording Manager service, only receives the Time-Line but the video is alway Black. Bosch VRM by default uses Ports 80 & 443. In most cases the problem is caused by another web server (e.g. IIS) that is installed on the same machine and is also making use of the default web ports 80 & 443. Related product: Bosch Video Recording Manager (VRM) Bosch Video Managment System (BVMS) Bosch Video Client (BVC) Bosch Video Security Client (VSC) Any Replay Client/ Managment System which accesses recorded video data via HTTP/HTTPS Solution: Disable any of the other web services or change the default Ports they are using.

How to terminate a M12 connector for FLEXIDOME micro 5000 MP? Both RJ45 and M12 plug connectors are available with IEC 11801:2002 Cat5 compliance. This further simplifies the concurrent use of both connector types within a single system. Assembly consists of three easy steps, none of which require specialist tools. The plug connectors, compliant with all standards and fully shielded against EMC interference, are available in four-pin and eight-pin configurations. They can be connected to flexible or rigid wires, with sizes ranging from AWG 26 to AWG 22. This makes the connectors suitable for all Industrial Ethernet transmission systems, Ethernet-based fieldbus systems such as Profinet, and EtherNet/IP up to gigabit speeds. The M12 Quickon connector provides a sturdy metal housing with a plug-and-turn mechanism. A 360 degree shielding connection with an iris spring means the connector is well suited to system environments with large amounts of EMC interference. The compact design of the RJ45 Quickon connector, on the other hand, makes it suitable for horizontal or vertical multi-port connection (as is frequently required by switches, for example). Connector ID rings are available in eight colors to visually aid patch-bay layout.

We can divide them into 3 groups: - XML restricted symbols. For the OPC server the device configuration is exported in a XML file. So no reserved XML characters should be used as they will be replaced by blanks when exporting the OPC file. XML restricted characters: : & < > " ' - OPC Specification restricted symbols.

Related Products Bosch Video Client (BVC) Question Where can I find my stored recordings?   Answer Default path of the recordings is set as: C:\Documents and Setting\Admin\My Documents\Bosch\Video Client\Recordings This path can be changed in the configuration manager under the tab System > Applications > Video Client > Application > Manual Recording

Standard Service Documents The calculation of the storage capacity is done in different way in Configuration Client and VRM Monitor: - In BVMS Configuration Client Capacity (GB) stands for the available physical capacity of the storage, as calculated and provided by the storage vendor (for example NetApp). -In VRM Monitor – under Target Overview – Total is listed the number of all available blocks multiplied by the size of the blocks that is by default 1GB. This calculation concerns the logical storage and depends on the way the storage is used (for example how many Luns are imported in the system).
