Symptom
A Bosch camera has been added in System Administration, but the camera will not come online. The camera has been added without a valid user name and password.
The LNVR to which the camera is attached will create "Add Channel" XML files in the following location:
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Lenel\LNVSuite\logs\
Each XML file will contain the following line:
< PASSWORD >******< /PASSWORD >
The XML file is generated when a download is performed on the LNVR while the camera is configured without a valid user name and password. Additionally, there will be a "Driver Error in Panel Download" alarm in Alarm Monitoring as a result of this download.
The internal account used to configure Bosch IP cameras is service.
To resolve this issue:
1) Enter a valid password for the service account in the Web configuration page for the Bosch IP camera.
2) Enter the service user name and the password supplied in step 1 into System Administration for the Bosch IP camera.
