•The login password of the camera cannot contain the character “&” or any whitespace
when connecting to GV-VMS.
•The Video Analytic features under Intelligent (see 3.5 Intelligent) cannot be integrated
with GV-VMS / DVR / NVR.
Note for Installing Camera Outdoor
When installing the camera outdoor, be sure that:
1. The camera is set up above the junction box to prevent water from entering the camera
along the cables.
2. Any PoE, power, audio and I/O cables are waterproofed using waterproof silicon rubber
or the like.
3. The screws are tightened and the cover is in place after opening the camera cover.
Note for Powering the Camera

Chapter 1 Introduction
1.1GV-EBD Series
The H.265 Eyeball Dome is an outdoor, network camera equipped with an automatic IR-cut
filter and IR LEDs for day and night surveillance. The camera adheres to IP67 standards for
dust / water protection and supports H.265 video codec to achieve better compression ratio
while maintaining high quality image at reduced network bandwidths. With its WDR Pro
(WDR for GV-EBD2702), it can process scenes with contrasting intensity of lights and
produce clear image.
For GV-EBD4711 / 4712 / 4813 / 8711 / 8813, with their motorized lenses, the user can
zoom and focus the camera from the Web interface. Certain camera models also provide
built-in micro-SD card slot for local storage.
