Installation and Configuration
o Start Setup from the DVD or a local drive under the root path, not a
network drive.
o Bosch VMS Archive Player must not be installed on a machine with other Bosch VMS
components already installed.
o When installing Bosch VMS Central Server do not change the active language in a MUI
environment or move a Bosch VMS configuration to a machine with a different locale.
Display names of Bosch VMS events cannot be changed from the initial locale.
o When configuring Bosch VMS with Allegiant only import Allegiant cameras that are in
use. Bosch VMS will not display camera states from Allegiant satellite systems.
o Ipv6 is not supported. Make sure it is not installed or enabled on any machine of the
system.
o On workstations with Windows 7 Power Options must be disabled. Otherwise the
network connections are disabled and Operator Client will disconnect from the system.
o When activating a license on Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008, make sure that the
network adapters required for operation are active. When unplugging a network cable,
these operating systems will deactivate the corresponding network adapter, which may
result in the license to become invalid
o When replacing an IP device with another, after bringing the device back into the
network, it is recommended to activate the configuration again.
o For consistent behavior regarding Logon Schedules during Online and Offline Operation
and for correct log-times of user events synchronize Operator Client to Central Server or
system time server.
Upgrade from earlier versions
o A new license code is required, when upgrading from an earlier version. For systems
with a valid Software Maintenance Agreement you can obtain the new license code
under “My Activations” from http://activation.boschsecurity.com. New purchases have
1 year Software Maintenance Agreement included, counting after the initial activation.
o When updating from a version prior to 2.0, update to version 2.0.3 first
o When updating from a version prior to 2.3, update to version 2.3, then to 3.0
o When updating from a 4.0 pre-release you first have to uninstall this version and then
install the official release.
o In order to persist any changes to the system configuration including user preferences
and changes to Favorite Trees, the configuration must be activated before upgrading the
system.
o Version 4.0 requires having the permissions for the Logical Tree for all items to be
consistent. I.e., one camera configured to be accessible from one location of the Logical
Tree, but not from another will result in the camera not being displayed in the Operator
Client
o When updating Operator Clients through No-Touch-Deployment, ensure you have
updated to Windows 7 SP1 and that administrative rights are available on the client
during the update time.
