Preparing a Bosch intrusion panel to add to Security Center SaaS

Before adding a Bosch intrusion panel to Security Center SaaS, you must configure the panel settings and obtain the panel's IP address, port number, and automation passcode. You must enter these values in the device wizard when you add the panel to Security Center SaaS.

1. Enable communication between the Bosch Remote Programming Software (RPS) and the panel.
   Connect using a USB cable, the onboard Ethernet communication module, or a B420 or B426 Ethernet module. For more information, see the Bosch documentation.
2. Configure the panel settings using RPS.
   Panel settings include intrusion areas, inputs, which RPS calls points, and outputs, which it calls relays. For more information, see the Bosch documentation.
3. Enable communication between the panel and Security Center SaaS using RPS.
   1. From the list of panels, right-click the panel you are adding to Security Center SaaS and select Open Panel View.
   2. Click the Connect button to connect RPS to the panel.
      
   3. In the Panel Wide Parameters > On Board Ethernet Communicator settings:
      • Set IPv4 DHCP/AutoIP Enable to No.
      • Enter an IP address for the panel in the IPv4 Address field.

        When you add the panel in Security Center SaaS, enter this address in the IP address field on the Activation page of the wizard.

      • Take note of the panel's TCP/UDP port number.

        When you add the panel in Security Center SaaS, enter this number in the Port field on the Activation page of the wizard.

      

   4. In the Automation/Remote App settings:
      • Set Automation Device to Mode 2.
      • Set the Automation Passcode.

        When you add the panel in Security Center SaaS, enter this number in the Passcode field on the Activation page of the wizard.

      

   5. Click Save.
