BRS 8.10 is able to show live images from ONVIF cameras, to record them and to play back / export them. BRS 8.10 supports PTZ control for ONVIF cameras; BRS 8.10 is able to set and call PTZ presets for ONVIF cameras. The following ONVIF cameras were tested with BRS 8.10: AXIS M7014 Video Encoder AXIS P1347 Network Camera AXIS P5534 PTZ Dome Network Camera AXIS Q6035 PTZ Dome Network Camera AXIS Q1604 Sony SNC-CH240 Panasonic WV-SC386 Series PTZ Page 2 of 6

3 1.3 TCP protocol configurable per camera BRS 8.10 provides the option to select TCP protocol per MPEG4 / H.264 BVIP device (instead of default UDP). 1.4 Automatic logon last user account In BRS 8.10 the last user will be logon automatically after BRS Application did not become closed correctly (e.g. power fail). 1.5 Virtual inputs increased BRS 8.10 supports max 128 Virtual inputs. 1.6 New Camera Expansion Licenses available The following Camera Expansion Licenses are introduced: BRS Expansion License 8 IP Cameras BRS-XCAM-08A BRS Expansion License 16 IP Cameras BRS-XCAM-16A They can be applied to BRS 8.10 and later versions. 2 Change requests and bug fixes 2.1 Licensed features displayed in wizard In BRS 8.10 the Configuration wizard shows all licensed features, even the pre-licensed ones such as 8 IP cameras on BRS Appliance. 2.2 BRS runs on embedded OS BRS 8.10 can be installed on embedded OS. Note: BRS running on DiBos hardware is not supported. 2.3 Web connection improved Bug in Web connection fixed in BRS BRS 8.10 Web Server also is running on Windows XP SP3, Windows Server 2003 SP2, Windows Server 2003 R2. Note: The instructions for configuring IIS have changed, and some of the steps need to be done for the Web server when upgrading to BRS 8.10 (in particular: aspnet_regiis for.net 4.0, configure Application Pool, turn off Application Recycling). 2.4 Smart search from DiBos cameras In BRS 8.10 the smart search works also for DiBos cameras.

4 2.5 ADAM relay as malfunction relay In BRS 8.10 an ADAM relay can be used as malfunction relay. 2.6 Licenses included in.prm file In BRS 8.10 the licenses are included in the configuration file (.prm file). By loading the.prm file into the same unit (e.g. after recovery) the licenses get active automatically. 2.7 Search of additional data Search of additional data from ATM over DTP3 box provides the correct hits. Note: Recording must be done with BRS Export of additional data In BRS 8.10 additional data are exported correctly. 2.9.NET framework BRS 8.9 requires NET framework 3.5 SP1 and.net Framework 4.0 to be installed. Both are available on Bosch web page and BRS 8.10 Setup DVD. 3 Known restrictions 3.1 Restrictions on ONVIF support Only the features mentioned in chapter 1.2 are supported. Other ONVIF device features such as audio, inputs, relays are not supported. Only H.264 streams are supported from ONFIV cameras (no MPEG4 streams or JPEG images). Multi-channel ONVIF encoders (e.g. AXIS M7014 ) are not recognized during network scan - only the first channel is found. Further channels can be added manually on the camera setting page. During testing the following issues have been identified, which are most probably caused by the cameras firmware: 1. Sometimes there are connection interruptions of around 10 s which happen with almost all Axis and with the Panasonic camera. 2. Sometimes we receive corrupted UDP packets with an invalid checksum from almost all Axis and from the Sony camera which cause a frame drop in recording. ONVIF cameras do not support TCP protocol yet.

5 3.2 Restrictions on TCP protocol Some BVIP MPEG4 devices do not support TCP streaming, such as VideoJet 800x series. ONVIF cameras do not support TCP protocol yet. 3.3 Uninstall BRS 8.9 may delete configuration Under certain circumstances the configuration becomes deleted when BRS 8.9 gets uninstalled. Important: Before uninstalling BRS 8.9, save the configuration file! If necessary, load the configuration file when BRS 8.10 wizard runs. 3.4 BRS NetLimiter Under certain circumstances the BRS NetLimiter may become not registered. The network cards are not shown in Configuration > Security and Network > Network settings. In that case, register BRS NetLimiter manually: 1. Close BRS application 2. Contol Panel > System and Security > Administrative Tools > Services > Bosch Networking Service a) Set "Startup Type" to "disabled" b) Stop service c) In a Command Prompt window with administrative rights, enter "C:\Program Files\Bosch\Recording Station\NetLimiterServer" /service d) Set "Startup Type" to "Automatic" e) Start service 3.
