GV-POS Text Sender

With an optional dongle, GV-POS Text Sender allows you to directly connect the GV-DVR System to Windows-based POS devices that can generate TXT, INI or JNL files and POS devices compatible with Internet or OPOS protocols. The POS transaction data is transferred to the GV-DVR System via a RS-232 serial cable or TCP/IP connection. The transaction data will be overlaid on live images or recordings.

GV-Mobile Server

GV-Mobile Server compresses IP videos from various hosts to D1 or VGA, or keeps the original resolution, and sends them to multiple clients for live viewing, reducing the CPU loading and bandwidth usage of IP video devices. GV-Mobile Server can receive up to 64 channels of live view from hosts including GV-IP devices, 3rd party IP devices, GV-VMS / DVR / NVR, GV-Recording Server, and GV-Video Gateway. Users can establish up to 4 matrix channels on GV-Mobile Server, each consisting of 36 cameras. Clients can access the live view from GV-Mobile Server using GV-Pad, GV-IP Decoder Box Series, GV-Eye for iOS and Android, 3rd party surveillance software through RTSP protocol or Non-IE browsers.

 

Through GV-Mobile Server, the clients can:

• To encode channels from GV-System / GV-VMS, install GV-Mobile Server on the same computer as GV-System / GV-VMS.

Note:
1. GV-System only supports up to 32 channels.
2. GV-VMS does not support analog cameras.

• With a GV-USB Dongle, the GV-Mobile Server can be installed in any remote server. It can directly encode IP channels from GeoVision and third-party IP devices through ONVIF and PSIA protocols, as well as those from GV-Recording Server / GV-Video Gateway.

GV-Video Gateway

The GV-Video Gateway is a video streaming server designed for large-scale video surveillance deployments. It can receive up to 128 IP cameras from various IP video devices. In addition, it can simultaneously distribute up to 300 channels to its clients which include GV-System (DVR/NVR system), GV-VMS (video management system), GV-GIS (geographic information system), GV-Mobile Server, GV-Control Center (central monitoring system), and Multi View (viewing software) and GV-Edge Recording Manager (multi view software). GV-Video Gateway can also send text notifications to one GV-VSM (Vital Sign Monitor) when alert conditions occur. Using the GV-Video Gateway, the desired frame rates can be reached while the CPU loading and the bandwidth usage of IP video devices are significantly reduced.

In some areas or countries, you may like to install 3G wireless Internet module (e.g. GPRS/UMTS) on the GV-Video Server or GV-Compact DVR but have the problem to obtain a public IP address from ISP. The Passive connection method of GV-Video Gateway can solve the public IP issue by accepting the connection request from the GV-Video Server or GV-Compact DVR, and then distribute the video streaming to clients.

It is also possible to view single-channel live images on the GV-Video Gateway server or multiple-channel live images on any PC through the GV-Video Gateway’s Web interface.

GV-Video Wall

With GV-Control Center, you can remotely configure and manage up to 200 Video Walls, each with a different layout. A video wall is an establishment of multiple monitors on a server, which is a PC installed with multiple graphic cards. Depending on the incoming IP sources, you can display actual-size images on the Video Wall.

GV-Vital Sign Monitor

The GV-Vital Sign Monitor is event-alert text messages service recommended for a large cluster of networked GV-System / GV-VMS where an enormous amount of maintenance service is required. When any online GV-System / GV-VMS is event-triggered, instant text messages will be sent to GV-Vital Sign Monitor for IT operator to proceed with maintenance on the GV-System / GV-VMS cluster. Following the receipt of the messages, the GV-Vital Sign Monitor can activate alarms to the operator’s attention while sending emails and SMS alerts to local subscribers. The purpose of adopting GV-Vital Sign Monitor is to help IT operators easily notice GV-System / GV-VMS health status and response instantly to various frequent events. It can co-work with GV-Center V2 Server and serve as many as 1,000 GV-System / GV-VMS simultaneously.

GV-Dispatch Server

The GV-Dispatch Server is a computer with Dispatch software that works with GV-Center V2 servers and the GV-System / GV-VMS. The GV-Dispatch Server connects 25,000 GV-System / GV-VMS to 50 GV-Center V2 Pro servers and distributes the workload between online and offline GV-Center V2 servers. It utilizes load-balancing technique that distributes requests from event-triggered GV-System / GV-VMS evenly across a GV-Center V2 network. If one GV-Center V2 server starts to get swamped, the GV-Dispatch Server forwards requests to another GV-Center V2 server with more capacity. When one GV-Center V2 server fails to work, another can take over in the processing activity.

REASONS OF RECOMMENDATION
Important for large GV-Center V2 server farm: It is difficult to predict the number of requests from multiple GV-System / GV-VMS to a server
Suitable for businesses or franchise stores: usually accompanied with a large cluster of networked GV-System / GV-VMS in use and an enormous amount of surveillance service required
Streamlines networking processes: no single server will be overwhelmed from GV-System / GV-VMS to GV-Center V2 servers

GV-Center V2

While GV-Center V2 Pro is a professional version for a large central monitoring network such as alarm services companies or chain stores, GV-Center V2 is a standard version that comes with the installation CD of GV-Series software free of charge. It is suitable for a smaller security monitoring network for residential environment. The GV-Center V2 has all the same good features with GV-Center V2 Pro.

BENEFITS OF USING GV-CENTER V2 PRO
GV-Center V2
