Note for Connecting to GV-VMS / DVR / NVR
The GV-IPCAM in this Manual 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.

Chapter 1 Introduction
1.1 GV-EBD2702 / 4700 / 4711
The H.265 Target Eyeball Dome is an outdoor, network camera equipped with an automatic
IR-cut filter and IR LEDs for day and night surveillance. GV-EBD2702 / 4711 adheres to IP67
standards, whereas GV-EBD4700 adheres to IP66. The camera 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, with its motorized lens, the user can zoom and focus the camera from the
Web interface. The camera also provides built-in micro SD card slot for local storage.

Note: In addition to the Standard Installation, you can also choose to run the Ethernet
cable through a corrugated tube. To do this, you will have to purchase your own conduit
connector and corrugated tube. 3/4” NPS is the recommended type of connector. After you
secure the wall box to the desired location, remove the knob at the bottom and connect the
conduit connector with a self-prepared corrugated tube to the wall box. Then, thread the
Ethernet cable through the corrugated tube and waterproof the Ethernet cable.

Chapter 2 Accessing the Camera
Once installed, the IP camera is accessible on a network. Follow these steps to configure the
network settings and access your surveillance images.
2.1 Installing on a Network
These instructions describe the basic connections to install the camera on the network.
1. Using a standard network cable, connect the camera to your network.
2. Connect to power using one of the following methods:
z Use the optional power adapter to connect to power.
z Use the Power over Ethernet (PoE) function in which power is supplied over the
network cable.
3. You can now access the Web interface of the camera.
z If the camera is installed in a LAN with DHCP server, use GV-IP Device Utility to look
up the camera’s dynamic IP address. See 2.1.1 Checking the Dynamic IP Address.
z If the camera is installed in a LAN without DHCP server, the default IP address
192.168.0.10 is applied. To assign a different static IP address, see 2.1.2 Assigning
an IP Address.
Note: You must set your browser to allow ActiveX Control and perform a one-time
installation of the ActiveX component onto your computer upon your first login.

Accessing the Camera
2.1.1 Checking the Dynamic IP Address
Follow the steps below to look up the IP address and access the Web interface.
1. Download and install the GV-IP Device Utility program from
http://www.geovision.com.tw/download/product/
.
Note: The PC installed with GV-IP Device Utility must be under the same LAN as the
camera you wish to configure.
2. On the GV-IP Utility window, click the button to search for the IP devices connected
in the same LAN. Click the Name or Mac Address column to sort.
Figure 2-1
3. Find the camera with its Mac Address, click on its IP address and select Web Page.

2.1.2 Assigning an IP Address
To assign a new static IP address, log in the Web interface and access the network setting
page. The following is illustrated using GV-EBD4711.
Note: If your router does not support DHCP, the default IP address is set as
192.168.0.10. In this case, it is strongly suggested that you modify the IP address to
avoid IP address conflicts with other GV-IP devices on the same LAN.
1. Open your Web browser and type the default IP address 192.168.0.10. A dialog box
appears.
2. Type the default username and password admin. Click Login.
3. Click Setup, select Common in the left menu and select Ethernet.
Figure 2-4
4. Select Static IP from the Obtain IP Address drop-down list.
5. Enter the IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway address. Make sure that the IP
address of the camera is unique in the network.
6. Click Save.
Note: When you are changing the network segment through the Web interface or GV-IP
Device Utility (V8.7.1.0), it is required that you change the default gateway too to complete
the IP address change successfully.

Video Compression: Set the codec type to H.265, H.264 or MJPEG.
Resolution: You may select the different resolutions for each stream.
Frame Rate: Select a frame rate for encoding images. The unit is frame per second.
Bit Rate:
CBR: The camera transmits data at a constant data rate by varying the quality of the
video stream
VBR: The quality of the video stream is kept as constant as possible at the cost of a
varying bitrate.
Image Quality: When VBR is selected for the encoding mode, you can move the slider
to adjust the desired quality level the for images. Moving the slider toward Bit Rate
decreases the bit rate and may affect image quality. Moving the slider toward Quality
increases the bit rate and improves image quality.
I Frame Interval: Set the number of frames between each I frame (key frame). This
option is only available when H.265 or H.264 is selected as the codec.
Smoothing: Set the extent of smoothing. Choosing Clear means disabling Smoothing.
Moving the slider toward Smooth increases the level of smoothing but will affect image
quality.

Note: If Slow Shutter is set to Off, the reciprocal of the shutter speed must be greater than
the frame rate.
Gain: Control image signals so that the camera outputs standard video signals
according to the light condition. You can set this parameter only when Exposure Mode
is set to Manual (Custom).
Slow Shutter: Improve image brightness in low light conditions.
Slowest Shutter: Set the slowest shutter speed that the camera can use during
exposure.

Compensation: Adjust the compensation value as required to achieve the desired
effects. You can set this parameter only when Exposure Mode is not set to Manual
(Custom).
Metering Control: Set the way the camera measures the intensity of light. You can only
set this parameter when Exposure Mode is not set to Manual (Custom).
Center-Weighted Average Metering: Measure light mainly in the central part of the
images.

mode depending on the amount of light detected. Select Night to produce high-quality
black and white images using the existing light. Select Day to produce high-quality color
images using the existing light.
Day/Night Sensitivity: Set the light threshold for switching between day mode and
night mode. A higher sensitivity means that the camera is more sensitive to the change
of light and becomes more easily to switch between day mode and night mode.
Day/Night Switching(s): Set the length of time before the camera switches between
day mode and night mode after the conditions for switching are met.
WDR: Enable WDR to distinguish the bright and dark areas in the same image.
WDR Level: After enabling the WDR function, you can improve the image by adjusting
the WDR level.
