Key Features

⚫ Remote DVR: Full control of local DVR/NVR settings

The Remote DVR facilitates the administrator to remotely configure local GV-DVR/NVR settings from one single
workstation. The feature reduces the trips to each DVR/NVR individually.

⚫ Remote Desktop: Remote access to local DVR/NVR/VMS desktop

When the Remote Desktop is enabled, the Control Center will receive the same desktop view of local DVR/NVR/VMS.
The administrator can remotely control the operation of local GV-DVR/NVR/VMS and even configure its Windows
operation system at low bandwidth.

⚫ Matrix View: Remotely monitor, record and play back from 1000 hosts

The Matrix View is a single display in which videos from a group of maximum 96 cameras can be shown, e.g. groups of
cameras at office areas, exits or on the streets. Depending on surveillance needs, the operator can open up to 8 Matrix
Views with 768 cameras on 8 monitors simultaneously. Each Matrix View supports live monitoring, recording and
video playback altogether.

⚫ I/O Central Panel: Group, manage and remotely configure I/O devices

The Control Center provides a useful I/O Central Panel for the administrator to remotely manage all I/O devices
connected with GV-DVR/NVR/VMS. The administrator can group function-related I/O devices together for ease of
control, e.g. groups of IR sensors, alarms, or fire exits. In case of building fire, for example, the Control Center can
simultaneously trigger all alarms on the networked GV-DVR/NVR/VMS and force opening all the fire exits or water
spray systems.

⚫ Remote Playback

The Remote ViewLog service enables playback of video archives from GV-DVR/NVR/VMS. The administrator can utilize
this service to save video clips for event retrieval or video evidence.

⚫ Authentication Center

Authentication Center is an account and access rights management system providing centralized control over multiple
Control Centers. The hosts in the Authentication Center can be grouped by different locations and purposes. The
administrator can configure the user accounts to have specific access rights for every host group. When a Control
Center is connected through the Authentication Center, the users will only be able to see the hosts they have been
granted access to.

⚫ Video Wall (optional)

A video wall or TV wall is an establishment of multiple monitors on a server. The administrator can create a layout with
a variety of displays including desired camera channels, zoom windows, scan windows, web pages, video playback and
live view popped up from E-Map. A megapixel camera channel can even be placed across monitors.
