Note for Connecting to GV-System
The GV-IPCAM H.264 is designed to work with GV-System, a hybrid or
digital video management system. Note the following when GV-IPCAM
H.264 is connected to GV-System:
1 By default, the images are recorded to the memory card inserted in
the GV-IP Camera H.264 (except GV-IR Arctic Box Camera and
Target Series, which are not equipped with a memory card slot).
2 Once the camera is connected to the GV-System, the resolution
set on the GV-System 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-
System is interrupted.
XXVI
Page 29
Note for Recording
1 By default, the images are recorded to the memory card inserted in
the GV-IP Camera H.264 (except GV-IR Arctic Box Camera and
Target Series, which are not equipped with a memory card slot).
Make sure the Write recording data into local storage option
(see 20.1.1 Video Settings) is enabled. If this option is disabled, the
camera will stop recording to the memory card while the live view is
accessed through Web browsers or other applications.
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.
• 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.
3 It is recommended to use memory cards of the following setting
and specifications:
• Apply a battery backup (UPS) to avoid power outage.
• Use Micro SD card of MLC NAND flash, Class 10 for better
performance.

Note for Adjusting Focus and Zoom
When adjusting the Focus and Zoom Screws (on Box Camera, IR
Arctic Box Camera, Bullet Camera, IR Arctic Bullet Camera, Vandal
Proof IP Dome and Fixed IP Camera), do not over tighten the Focus
and Zoom screws. The screws only need to be as tight as your finger
can do it. It is not necessary to use any tools to get them tighter. Doing
so can damage the structure of lens.
For example,

Note for Installing Camera Outdoor
When installing the IR Arctic Box Camera, Bullet Camera, Ultra Bullet
Camera, Target Bullet Camera, Vandal Proof IP Dome, Mini Fixed
Rugged Dome or Target Mini Fixed Rugged Dome 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.
XXIX
Page 32
3. After opening the camera cover, ensure the screws are tightened
and the cover is in place.
4. The silica gel bag loses its effectiveness when the dry camera is
opened. To prevent the lens from fogging up, replace the silica
gel bag every time you open the camera, and conceal the gel bag
in camera within 2 minutes of exposing to open air.
5. For each newly replaced silica gel bag, allow it to absorb moisture
for at least 5 hours before operating the camera.

Note for USB Storage and WiFi Adapter
Mind the following limitations and requirements for using USB storage
and GV-WiFi Adapter:
1. The USB hard drive must be of 2.5’’ or 3.5’’, version 2.0 or above.
2. The USB hard drive’s storage capacity must not exceed 2TB.
3. USB flash drives and USB hubs are not supported.
4. External power supply is required for the USB hard drive.
5. To connect a GV-WiFi Adapter, make sure it is connected before
the camera is powered on.

Chapter 2 Box Camera
The Box Camera is a series of indoor IP cameras consisting of fixed focal
and varifocal models in different resolutions. The Box Camera supports
lens replacement and features an automatic infrared-cut filter for day and
night surveillance. The super low lux models are capable of displaying
color live view in near darkness. Models equipped with a mini USB port can
be connected wirelessly through a GV-WiFi Adapter (optional). The WDR
Pro models can produce clear image for scenes with contrasting intensity
of lights (see 2.2.1 Wide Dynamic Range Pro for details). For details on
related models, see 2.2 Features. The Box Camera models are detailed
below:

2.2.1 Wide Dynamic Range Pro
Objects may appear as silhouettes when they are backed with intense
lights. The Wide Dynamic Range Pro (WDR Pro) is designed to solve this
problem using a WDR sensor. In GV-BX140DW, GV-BX2400 Series and
GV-BX3400 Series, the WDR sensor is able to process the image and
show details in bright and dark areas at the same time. An example of
WDR Pro in action is shown below.
No WDR: underexposure
WDR: perfect exposure
For GV-IPCam H.264 models that support WDR, the WDR effect is
achieved through software programming.

2.6 I/O Terminal Block
The terminal block, located on the back panel of the Box Camera, provides
the interface to one input and one output devices. The I/O terminal block
can be used for applications such as motion detection, event alerts via E-
Mail and FTP, and center monitoring through Center V2 and VSM.
2.6.1 Pin Assignment
The pin assignment for the I/O terminal block:
For the output point, please check if your output device meets the following
Absolute Maximum Ratings before connecting it to the output point.
Breakdown Voltage 277V AC, 30V DC
Continuous Load Current 5A (NO), 3A (NC)
Note: Absolute Maximum Ratings are those values beyond which
damage to the camera may occur. Continuous operation of the camera at
the absolute rating level may affect the camera reliability.
The Box Camera support one digital input and one digital output of dry
contact.

IMPORTANT:
1. The gel bag loses its effectiveness when the dry camera is
opened. To prevent the lens from fogging up, replace the silica gel
bag every time you open the camera, and conceal the silica gel
bag in the camera within 2 minutes of exposing to open air.
2. Allow the silica gel bag to absorb moisture for at least 5 hours
before operating the camera.

5.6 Notice for Using the IR Arctic Box Camera
Ensure that you:
• enable IR LED function on the Web interface after loading the default
settings.
• disable the status LED to reduce reflection when a green light spot
appears on the live view.
5.6.1 Enabling IR LED after Loading Default
Each GV-IR Arctic Box Camera is equipped with 4 IR LEDs to provide
infrared illumination at night. The factory-loaded setting for the IR LED
function is enabled. If you have restored the camera to default settings,
please follow the steps below to enable the IR LED function.
1. In the left menu of Web interface, select Video Settings and then
Streaming 1.
2. Enable Trigger IR by D/N in IR Check Function.
3. Click Apply.

5.6.2 Disabling Status LED under Low Light Conditions
If you have a green light spot on the live view, this is likely due to
insufficient light at the installation site, which causes the status LED to
reflect on the camera cover. In this case, it is advisable that you disable the
status LED.
1. In the left menu of Web interface, select Video Settings and then
Streaming 1.
2. Select Disable in LED Control.

Chapter 6 Mini Fixed Dome & Mini
Fixed Rugged Dome
The Mini Fixed Dome (GV-MFD) and Mini Fixed Rugged Dome (GV-MDR)
are fixed, mini-sized ceiling-mount network cameras.
The GV-MDR series is designed for outdoor surveillance, conforming to
IK10 and IP67 standards. The camera is adjustable in 3 axis (pan, tilt and
rotate) and can be connected through PoE.
The GV-MFD series is designed for indoor surveillance. Adjustable in 2
axis (pan and tilt), the camera also supports PoE.
The super low lux models can provide color live view in near darkness and
the WDR Pro models can process scenes of contrasting intensity of lights
(see 2.2.1 Wide Dynamic Range Pro for details). For details on related
models, see 6.2 Features.
