Hello,

Unfortunately, I can't access the videos:

Folc1_0-1714983606690.png

To access the videos, do we need to create a BOSCH login? Is the Rexroth login not working?

When I use my email address for the BOSCH login, it tells me that my address is not known.

Hello,

I also cant access the videos as my email I use to log onto other Bosch systems doesn't work.

Where do I make the right Bosch account?

Can they be put on YouTube for easy access?

Thanks,

Hamish

Hello,

The links are working with Bosch and Rexroth ID's too. We can not put these videos on YouTube. These videos are from the Bosch tube. There is a problem with the Bosch tube itself and we are trying to solve it.

Apologies for the delay.

Thanks and Regards,

Hi All,

The videos are working for me (internal), hopefully the problem with Bosch Tube was now fixed.

@HamishCrackett @Folc1 @Maximilian  May you want to retry if it is now also working for you?

Thanks and BR
