Security: Video

The browser supported by Bosch cameras depends on the CPP that camera belongs to and on the Firmware version the camera has.. In web browsers that do not support MPEG-ActiveX, VCA configuration is only possible via Configuration Manager.

Find out from here what is VCA (Video content analysis) and how you can stop this setting.

Remote VCA configuration through the camera's device page (website) now can be performed with Bosch Configuration Manager version 7.60 and later.

Can I mask areas that should not trigger an alarm (e.g. false detection due to sun reflection)?

We would kindly ask you to upgrade Configuration Manager to version 7.62 or above. In version 7.62, several VCA issues are fixed.

Global VCA under the VCA task in Configuration Manager is used from default on the camera (with no specific configured VCA Rules). VCA Profile: Global (from Positioning) is used to set the same height of the camera for all VCA profiles.

We found that there was a change in the way intelligent tracking worked after CPP 7.3 firmware v7.62.0005. With these changes if an object triggered an alarm that turned on intelligent tracking, the camera would not track the object. It would wait for another object to trigger an alarm to track it.

The Image Stabilization cannot be used in combination with VCA tasks, with the various MIC-7100i models. Turning Off the image stabilization will solve this behavior.
