SELV - All the input/output ports are Safety Extra Low Voltage  
(SELV) circuits. SELV circuits should only be connected to  
other SELV circuits.  
Because the ISDN circuits are treated like telephone-network  
voltage, avoid connecting the SELV circuit to the Telephone  
Network Voltage (TNV) circuits.  
The system ground is only used to comply with safety standards  
or installation practices in certain countries. Bosch does not  
recommend connecting system ground to safety ground unless  
it is explicitly required. However, if the system ground and  
safety ground are connected and grounding loops are causing  
interference in the video signal, use an isolation transformer  
(available separately from Bosch).  
CAUTION!  
Connecting System ground to Safety ground may result in  
ground loops that can disrupt the CCTV system.  
Video loss - Video loss is inherent to digital video recording;  
therefore, Bosch Security Systems cannot be held liable for any  
damage that results from missing video information. To  
minimize the risk of lost digital information, Bosch Security  
Systems recommends multiple, redundant recording systems,  
and a procedure to back up all analog and digital information.

CAUTION!  
To prevent humidity problems, the camera must be installed in  
dry conditions, and the cable leads should be sealed after they  
are connected.  
1. Determine a secure location that can support the weight of  
the dome.  
2. Use the template (refer to Figure 6.1, item 1) to mark the  
locations of the four screw holes and the cable conduit.  
3. Pre-drill the four screw holes wide enough to accept the  
plastic anchors.  
4. Cut out the entire cable conduit hole.  
5. Insert the four plastic anchors (item 2) inside the pre-  
drilled holes.  
6. Route the cables from the camera through the conduit in  
the ceiling.  
7. Remove the dome cover (item 6) from the camera base  
(item 3).  
NOTICE!  
To prevent scratches on the dome cover, Do Not Remove the  
plastic film protecting the dome cover until after hardware  
installation is complete.  
8. Remove the white foam ring from the camera base, and  
remove the white foam sheet from the inside of the dome  
cover. (These are for protection during transport.)  
9. Align the four screw holes on the camera base (item 3)  
with the four plastic anchors.  
CAUTION!  
When (re)mounting the camera base, make sure that each  
mounting screw has a rubber O-ring. This ensures protection  
against water ingress.  
10. Attach the camera base to the ceiling using the four #8 x  
32 screws (with O-rings attached) (item 4). Tighten the

WDR/DNR  
When both high-brightness subjects and low-brightness  
subjects need to be displayed at the same time, overexposure  
in the high-brightness areas or a loss of dark detail in the low-  
brightness areas may occur. The WDR (Wide Dynamic Range)  
function creates images free from over-exposure or loss of dark  
detail by combining two images from tripping the shutter for a  
long exposure time and for a short exposure time in one field.  
The DNR (Digital Noise Reduction) function creates ’noiseless’  
images, even in low light. In ’WDR on’ mode, unnatural color or  
image, and noise, may occur in a bright area. Under special  
illumination, it is better to avoid using the WDR function. To set  
WDR and DNR settings:
