Safety instructions
IMPORTANT: Video fire indication systems are video content analysis systems. They give indications for possible fires and are designed to supplement fire detection systems and human guards in monitoring centers to recognize possible dangerous situations.
Video fire indication systems are confronted with a higher amount of challenges considering scenery and background compared to conventional fire detection systems. They cannot ensure that fire will be detected reliably in all scenery settings. Thus, the video fire detection system shall be seen as a support system that enhances the probability of early fire detection, with the restriction that it shall not be seen as a system that ensures fire detection in all possible image scenarios and it might detect false alarms. Conventional fire alarm systems must in no way be replaced by video-based fire alarm systems.
In addition, and for the U.S. market only, Bosch Security Systems makes no representation that the video fire indication system will prevent any personal injury or property loss by fire or otherwise; or that such product will in all cases provide adequate warning or protection. Buyer understands that a properly installed and maintained fire indication system may only reduce the risk of a fire or other events occurring without providing an alarm, but it is not insurance or a guarantee that such will not occur or that there will be no personal injury or property loss as a result. Consequently, Bosch Security Systems shall have no liability for any personal injury, property damage, or other loss based on a claim the product failed to give a warning.
- Warning: Bosch Security Systems assumes no liability for the reliability of fire detection in case of configuration changes in Expert Mode. This means it is your responsibility to ensure the reliability of the fire detection and, if necessary, fire tests.
- Caution: The Low Voltage power supply unit must comply with EN/UL 60950. The power supply must be a SELV-LPS unit or a SELV-Class 2 unit (Safety Extra Low Voltage – Limited Power Source).
- Caution: Installation should only be performed by qualified service personnel under the National Electrical Code (NEC 800 CEC Section 60) or applicable local codes.
Notice
- Qualified personnel only.
- Assembly and installation must only be performed by qualified personnel.
Notice
- No direct connection to fire services in EN54-compliant installations.
- Authorities can allow a connection to fire services after verifying alarms in a monitoring center. Exceptions are possible due to local regulations.
- Reduced detection distances at image margin area.
- Due to the optical distortion of the lens, the maximum detection distances at the image margin area are reduced.
- Video-based fire detection sets camera settings to a specific preset.
- The setting of the image parameters can be changed only to a limited extent.
- Notice!
- Respect data protection.
- The relevant data protection and privacy rules are to be complied with.
- Minimum Illumination required.
- To ensure the proper functioning of the video-based fire detection algorithm, a minimal illumination of 1 lx is required. If the illumination is less than 1 lx, the internal IR illumination is to be activated in the camera menu.
- No detection of moving fire.
- Moving fires might not be detected by video-based fire detection. An example of a moving fire is a fire on a moving conveyor belt.
- Avoid obstructions in the field of view!
- Covered fires cannot be detected correctly. An unobstructed view of the detection area is necessary.
- Optimized smoke detection.
- The video-based fire detection algorithm is optimized for smoke of smoldering fires.
- Avoid image regions with continuous upward motion. Continuous upward motion might lead to false alarms.
- Make sure the camera is firmly mounted.
- Camera shake might lead to non-detection. Avoid vibrations of the camera and the camera environment.
- No detection in blinking light regions in the detection area.
- Ensure that you are always using the latest version of the documentation and the current camera firmware. The manufacturer will not be held liable for any damages resulting from the use of older versions. Refer to: https://

Caution
- Make sure to test the fire detection after updating to the latest firmware.
Notice
- Bright strongly illuminated areas in the background (e.g., white areas, sun or sky) limit the detection of flames or can lead to flames not being detected.
- The camera must be mounted horizontally. A twisted installation, e.g. 90° or 270° is not permissible.
