Naming Definition
GV-DVR / NVR GeoVision Analog and Digital Video Recording Software. The
GV-DVR also refers to GV-Multicam System or GV-Hybrid DVR.
GV-VMS GeoVision Video Management System for IP cameras.
Note for Connecting to GV-VMS / DVR / NVR
The GV-IP Speed Dome is designed to work with and record on GV-VMS / DVR / NVR, a
video management system.
Once the camera is connected to the GV-VMS / DVR / NVR, the resolution set on the
GV-VMS / DVR / NVR will override the resolution set on the camera’s Web interface. You can
only change the resolution settings through the Web interface when the connection to the
GV-VMS / DVR / NVR is interrupted.

viii
Note for Recording
1. By default, the images are recorded to the memory card inserted in the GV-IP Seed
Dome.
2. Mind the following when using a memory card for recording:
Recorded data on the memory card can be damaged or lost if the data are accessed
while the camera is under physical shock, power interruption, memory card
detachment or when the memory card reaches the end of its lifespan. No guarantee is
provided for such causes.
The stored data can be lost if the memory card is not accessed for a long period of
time. Back up your data periodically if you seldom access the memory card.
Memory cards are expendable and their durability varies according to the conditions of
the installed site and how they are used. Back up your data regularly and replace the
memory card annually.
To avoid power outage, it is highly recommended to apply a battery backup (UPS).
For better performance, it is highly recommended to use Micro-SD card or SD card of
MLC NAND flash, Class 10.
Replace the memory card when its read/write speed is lower than 6 MB/s or when the
memory card is frequently undetected by the camera.
