Naming and Definition
GV-System GeoVision Analog and Digital Video Recording Software.
The GV-System also refers to GV-Multicam System,
GV-NVR System, GV-DVR System and GV-Hybrid
DVR System at the same time.
Note for Recording
The GV-IPCAM H.264 is designed to work with GV-System, a hybrid or
digital video management system. Normally, the images are recorded to
the memory card inserted in the Box Camera, Bullet Camera, PT Camera
or PTZ Camera. Once the camera is connected to GV-System for video
management or its Live View (Figure 8-3) is accessed through the Web
browser, the recording to the memory card will be stopped and the
recording will be taken control by GV-System. When the connection
between the camera and GV-System is interrupted, the recording to the
memory card will be resumed to back up the images on the camera.
1
Note for Firmware Upgrade
Before you upgrade the firmware, please follow these instructions:
1. The firmware upgrade must be performed on the LAN.
2. Stop monitoring of GV-IPCAM H.264.
3. Stop all the remote connections including Center V2, VSM, ViewLog
Server and 3GPP.
4. Stop the connection to GV-System.
The failure to follow the above instructions may cause damages to the GV-
IPCAM H.264. For details on firmware upgrade, see 11.1 Upgrading
System Firmware in the User’s Manual.
If firmware upgrade fails, you will need to restore the camera to the default
settings. For this see 11.3 Restoring to Factory Default Settings in the
User’s Manual.

Box Camera
2.5 Focus Adjustment
There are two ways to access live images of the Box Camera for focus
adjustment. One is to connect a portable monitor to the Video Out port on
the rear panel of the Box Camera. The other is to connect the Box Camera
to the network and access its live images.
To adjust the focus or image clarity during the initial installation of the Box
Camera, it is suggested to print out the diagram of radiating lines included
on Software CD and hang up the diagram at the surveillance area for focus
adjustment.
In the following examples, the left diagram has a good focus with clear
radiating lines; the right diagram has a poor focus with blurred lines.
Good focus Poor focus
11
2.6 Optional Installation
2.6.1 C-Mount Lenses
If you use the C-mount lens, it requires a certain distance from the
camera’s imaging chip; otherwise it will not be possible to focus the lens.
Mount the supplied C mount adapter to the camera, and then attach the
lens onto the C-mount adapter. The supplied C-mount adapters are only
for GV-BX120D / 220D / 320D.
The supplied C-mount lens adapters include 3 sizes in thickness:
• 0.188 mm (transparent color) x 2
• 0.125 mm (black color with a glossy surface) x 2
• 0.254 mm (black color with a matt surface) x 2
Note: The C-mount lens adapters are specially designed for varifocal
models of GV-BX120D / 220D / 320D. Besides the supplied 6 units of
C-mount lens adapters, each varifocal model has already included with
a 0.188 mm C-mount lens adapter.
