Configure the settings on your Bosch intrusion panel before adding the panel to Security Center SaaS.

Before you begin

Read the Bosch documentation that applies to your hardware.

Procedure

  1. Select one of the supported Ethernet modules.
  2. Enable communication between the Bosch Remote Programming Software (RPS) and the panel.
    This can be done using a USB cable, the onboard Ethernet communication module, or the B420 or B426 Ethernet module. For more information, see the Bosch documentation.
  3. Configure the panel settings using Bosch RPS.
    Panel settings include intrusion areas, inputs (points), outputs (relays), and other behavior. For more information, see the Bosch documentation.
  4. Enable communication between the panel and Security Center SaaS.
    1. Open Bosch RPS.
    2. From the list of panels, right-click on the panel you are adding to Security Center SaaS and select Open Panel View.
    3. Click the Connect button to connect Bosch RPS to the panel.
    4. 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.
      • Take note of the panel's IPv4 address and TCP/UDP port number. They're required to add the panel to Security Center SaaS.
    5. In the Automation/Remote App settings:
      • Set Automation Device to Mode 2.
      • Set the Automation Passcode.
      • Take note of the automation passcode. It's required to add the panel to Security Center SaaS.
    6. Click Save.
The panel can now communicate with Security Center SaaS.
