GeoVision Control Center - Manual (Page 2)

MAIN FEATURES
The Control Center's features and capabilities include the followings.
Remote DVR Configuration: Full control of local DVR settings
The Remote DVR facilitates the administrator to remotely configure local GV‐System’s specific settings from one single
workstation. When the Remote DVR is on the run, the local GV‐System loses its full control of the DVR operations and the Control
Center takes full control of the configuration.
Remote Desktop: Remote access to local DVR desktop
When the Remote Desktop is on the run, the Control Center will receive the same desktop view of local DVR. In the meantime, the
security administrator can remotely control the local GV‐System's full operations and even configure Windows operation system of
the networked GV‐System at low bandwidth.
Matrix View: Remotely monitor, record and playback from 1000 hosts
The Matrix View is a single display where videos from a group of maximum 96 cameras will be displayed, e.g. groups of office area
cameras, exit cameras, or street cameras. The GV‐Control Center supports up to 8 Matrix View displays with 768 cameras on 8
monitors at a time. Depending on various surveillance needs, the center operator can open 8 Matrix View displays simultaneously
to view more videos from different DVRs / NVRs. Each Matrix View supports live monitoring, recording and video playback.
Remote ViewLog: Playback of recorded videos from local GV‐Systems
The Remote ViewLog function enables playback of all video archives from different GV‐Systems. The security administrator can
utilize this Remote ViewLog to save video clips for future event retrieval or for video evidence.
I/O Central Panel: Group, manage and remotely configure I/O devices
The Control Center provides a useful I/O Central Panel for the security administrator to remotely manage all I/O devices connected
with GV‐Systems. Administrators 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 trigger all alarms on the networked GV‐Systems
and force opening all the fire exits or water spray systems at the same time.
Video Wall (optional)
A video wall is an establishment of multiple monitors on a server. In this setup, the number of monitors allowed depends on the
capability of the server’s graphic card. With the Video Wall function of Control Center, you can create layout, Zoom Window and
Scan Window. The Control Center can manage up to 200 video walls.
