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).

Once the camera is connected to the GV-System, the resolution

set on the GV-System will override the resolution set on the
cameras Web interface. You can only change the resolution
settings through the Web interface when the connection to the GVSystem is interrupted.

XXVI

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.

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.

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.

XXVII

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,

Bullet Camera

Zoom Screw

Focus Screw

Focus Screw

Zoom Screw

Fixed IP Camera

The maximum torque value for all the zoom and focus screws is 0.049
N.m

XXVIII

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

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.

XXX

Note for Closing the Bullet Camera

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.

Chapter 9 Bullet Camera

The Bullet Cameras are specifically designed for outdoors and are
weatherproof (IP66 or IP67). They are equipped with IR LEDs for infrared
illumination in night vision applications. The WDR Pro models (see 2.2.1
Wide Dynamic Range Pro for details) enhance the image by processing
contrasting intensity of light. The super low lux model can produce color
live view in near darkness. The motorized varifocal lens models allow the
user to adjust the focus and zoom through the Web interface.

The arctic models can withstand extreme temperatures (-40C ~ 50C / 40F ~ 122F). Moreover, they are equipped with P-iris which allows for
automatic and precise control of exposure, producing images with better
clarity and contrast. For related models, see 9.2 Features. The following
models are available:

12.8.4 Image Settings

Image Setting provides features on iris control, white balance, image
orientation and other image processing tools to generate clearer images.
To access these features, open the VISCA OSD Configuration dialog box
and select Image Setting.

[Iris] adjusts the amount of exposure.

ALC: Automatic Light Control (ALC) is used to adjust light levels.

 Auto: The amount of exposure is automatically adjusted. Select
Auto to enable this option. If the adjusted image is still too dark or
bright, move the slider. A higher value makes the image brighter.
 Fixed: The amount of exposure is controlled by different aperture
size. Use the slider to select from 0 to 8. A higher value signifies a
bigger aperture and therefore makes the image brighter.
AES: Automatic Electronic Shutter (AES) adjusts the amount of
exposure by different shutter speeds.
 Auto: The shutter speed is automatically adjusted. To enable this
option, select Auto. If the adjusted image is still too dim or bright,
use the slider to select from 0 to 8. A higher value indicates a
slower shutter speed and therefore produces brighter image.
 Fixed: The shutter speed for each level is fixed. Use the slider to
select from 0 to 8. A higher value indicates a faster shutter speed
and therefore produces a dimmer image.

[White Balance] Adjusts the color intensity to make the images normal to
the human eye.

ATW: Auto Tracking White Balance (ATW) automatically adjusts the

color intensity for scenes with changing light source. Use the slider to
select from 0 to 8. A higher value produces a brighter image and a
lower value produces a more yellowish image.
155

AWB: Automatic White Balance (AWB) automatically compensates

for colors under different light levels. AWB is ideal for scenes with a
fixed light source. Use the slider to select from 0 to 8. A higher value
produces a brighter image and a lower value produces a dimmer
image.
R Gain: Adjusts the red element of the live view. Use the slider to
select from 0 to 8. A higher value indicates a stronger degree of red.
B Gain: Adjusts the blue element of the live view. Use the slider to
select from 0 to 8. A higher value indicates a stronger degree of blue.

[Image Reverse]

Positive/Negative: With the Positive mode, the colors in the live view
appear as it is through the eye. With the negative mode, colors in live
view are changed to their complementary colors (opposite colors), i.e.
black will be changed to white, red to green etc. Use the drop-down
list to select between Positive and Negative mode.

H Reverse: Reverses the view horizontally. Use the drop-down list to

select On or Off.

V Reverse: Reverses the view vertically. Use the drop-down list to

select On or Off.

[Other]

156

BLC: Backlight Compensation (BLC) is used to compensate AGC in

adjusting color intensity. For scenes with strong light in the
background and dim light in the foreground, AGC is not effective
because AGC averages the light intensity of a whole frame. BLC
compensates for this characteristic by restricting AGC to adjust color
intensity of a specific area. To turn on, use the drop-down list, select
On, and select a level among 0 to 7. A higher value indicates a
stronger compensation effect.

12 PTZ Camera

AGC
 Freeze: Instantly freezes the live view image when On is selected.
 AGC: Automatic Gain Control (AGC) utilizes an electronic circuit

which amplifies video signal when the signal strength falls below a
given value due to lack of the light on the camera. Adjust camera
sensitivity to provide clear images. Under strong light intensity,
AGC decreases the camera sensitivity to produce dimmer images.
Under weak light intensity, AGC increases the camera sensitivity
to produce brighter images. To adjust AGC, use the slider to select
among 0 to 8. A higher value produces brighter images.
 Sense Up: Use the slider to select among 0 to 8. A higher value
produces brighter images.

APC: Aperture Compensation (APC) is used to adjust the sharpness

of the image.
 H Gain: Sharpens the horizontal elements of the image. Use the

slider to adjust the horizontal compensation between 0 and 12.

 V Gain: Sharpens the vertical elements of the image. User the

slider to adjust the vertical compensation between 0 and 12.

Gamma: Adjusts the contrast of the image. Use the drop-down list to
select between 1 and 2. The 2 option produces stronger contrast.

157

12.8.5 Preset Settings

For PTZ Camera to automatically move toward a point in live view,

21.1 Video and Motion

The GV-IPCAM H.264 can simultaneously process one video source in two
different codec and resolutions. The dual-stream design benefits for lower
bandwidth environment, allowing Streaming 2 to be set with lower
resolution and codec for live streaming, and Streaming 1 set with highest
resolution and codec H.264 for best recording quality. Two setting pages
Streaming 1 and Streaming 2 are provided for separate setup.

[Name] Rename the video stream. To display the name of video stream on
the Live View window, see 20.2.9 Camera Name Display.
[Connection Template] Select the type of your network connection.
Unless you select Customized, this option will automatically bring up the
recommended video resolution, frame rate, bandwidth and GOP size.

[Video Signal Type] Select the video signal type, resolution and frame
rate. Select between H.264 and MJPEG as the codec type. For details on
the resolutions and frame rates of each camera model, see Appendix C.

Note that for all the cameras (except GV-PTZ010D), the resolution options
available for sub stream vary with the resolution selected for its main
stream. For example, if a 4:3 resolution is selected for the main stream in
GV-BX320D-0, two options, 640 x 480 and 320 x 240 will be available for
its sub stream.

[Bandwidth Management] When using the H.264 codec, it is possible to

control the bitrate, which in turn allows the amount of bandwidth usage to
be controlled.

VBR (Variable Bitrate): The quality of the video stream is kept as

constant as possible at the cost of a varying bitrate. The bandwidth is
much more efficiently used than a comparable CBR.
Set the image quality to one of the 5 standards: Standard, Fair,
Good, Great and Excellent.

Maximal Bit Rate: When the actual bitrate exceeds the specified
Maximal Bit Rate, the system will automatically lower its bitrate so as
not to exceed it. Select one of the bitrates from the drop-down list or
select Auto if you do not want to enable this function. The default
maximal bitrate values are detailed as follows:

Figure 21-29B
[Dynamic DNS Server Settings] DDNS (Dynamic Domain Name System)
provides a convenient way of accessing the camera when using a dynamic
IP. DDNS assigns a domain name to the camera, so that the Administrator
does not need to go through the trouble of checking if the IP address
assigned by DHCP Server or ISP (in xDSL connection) has changed.
Before enabling the following DDNS function, the Administrator should
have applied for a Host Name from the DDNS service providers website.
There are 3 providers listed in the camera: GeoVision GVDIP, GeoVision
DDNS Server and DynDNS.org.
To enable the DDNS function:
1.

Enable: Enable the DDNS function.

2.

Service Provider: Select the DDNS service provider you have

registered with.

3.

Host Name: Type the host name used to link to the camera. For the

because the host name will be detected and brought up automatically.

359

4.

User Name: Type the username used to enable the service from the
DDNS. The username should look similar to your host name.
Depending on your service provider, you should add domain name
(.dipmap.com, .gvdip.com or .org) after your user name, for example,
alice.dipmap.com

5.

Password: Type the password used to enable the service from the
DDNS.

6.

Click Apply.

[HTTP Port Settings] The HTTP port enables connection of the camera to
the web. For security integration, the Administrator can hide the server

21 Administrator Mode
[QoS Settings] The Quality of Service (QoS) is a bandwidth control
mechanism that guarantees delay-sensitive data flows such as voice and
video streams, obtain a certain amount of bandwidth to keep the streaming
smooth.

To apply QoS to GV-IPCAM H.264, all network routers must support QoS
and QoS must be enabled on these devices. To enable the QoS on GVIPCAM H.264, enter a Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP) value.
This value is a field in an IP packet that enables different levels of services
for the network traffic. When the video stream from GV-IPCAM H.264

23.5 Verifying Watermark

The watermark is an encrypted and digital signature embedded in the
video stream during the compression stage, protecting the video from the
moment of creation. Watermarking ensures that an image is not edited or
damaged after it is recorded. To enable the watermark function, see
[Watermark Setting], 21.1.1 Video Settings.

The Watermark Proof is a watermark-checking program. It can verify the

authenticity of the recording before you present it in court.

23.5.1 Accessing AVI Files

To verify watermark, first you have to access the recorded AVI files by one
of these methods:
1.

Use the File Save function (No.6, Figure 20-3) to start recording on
the local computer.

2.

Use the Act as FTP Server function to download AVI files from the
GV-IPCAM H.264. See 21.3.2 FTP.

3.

Use the files recorded on the memory card. Since the files saved on
the memory card are of Linux file system, remember to run Ext2Fsd
program for Windows-based system to read and access Linux-based
files. For the instructions, see 22.2.1 Playback from the Memory Card.

417

23.5.2 Running Watermark Proof

1.

Install Watermark Proof from the Software CD. After installation, a

WMProof icon is created on your desktop.

2.

Double-click the created icon. The Water Mark Proof window appears.

3.

Click File from the menu bar, select Open and locate the recording
(.avi). The selected recording is then listed on the window.
Alternatively, you can drag the recording directly from the storage
folder to the window.

4.

If the recording is unmodified, a check mark will appear in the Pass

column. On the contrary, if the recording is modified or does not
contain watermark during recording, a check mark would appear in
the Failed column. To review the recording, double-click the listed file
on the window.
