V82
Version 8.2 is the standard software included with the GV Card. It is able to connect up to 8 GV-IP channels with out
additional cost, but to add up to 8 x 3rd party IP camera, purchase of GV-NVR is required, please refer to notes for
additional detail. These GV-IP channels may be from GV-Video Server, GV-IP Camera, or GV-IP Mega Pixel Camera.
GV-NVR (GV) – 55-NGXXX
GV-NVR (GV) is pure software, purchased separately, that will support only the GeoVision IP solutions such as GV-
Video Server, GV-IP Camera, and GV-IP Mega Pixel Camera. It is sold by number of ports in 4 channel increments up
to 16 channels max. When purchased, a USB key that activates the software will support the number of channels
purchased.
GV-NVR – 55-NRXXX
GV-NVR is also pure software, purchased separately, that will support up to 16 channels of IP cameras from the
compatible IP camera list. It is sold in 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, and 16 channels. It also uses a USB key that may be
upgraded remotely.
Hybrid Solution
Under a hybrid solution, mixing analog channel with either GV-IP, 3rd party IP camera, or both, please purchase GV-
NVR corresponding to the number of 3rd party IP camera being used. In the environment where only GV-IP cameras
are used, GV-NVR or GV-NVR (GV) is unnecessary. For example, 14 channel DVR with (6) analog channels and (4)
GV-IP channel and (4) 3rd party IP camera. You will need a DVR card supporting at least 6 channels plus a GV-NVR-
04 to support the 3rd party IP camera, and the GV-IP channels are supported by the V82.
Under hybrid solution, the maximum IP channels, whether is GV-IP, 3rd party IP camera, or combination, are 8
channels. For example, if 8 x IP channels are used in conjunction with a 12 channel DVR Card, 4 of the channels from
the 12 channel card are obsolete.
Quality and Performance
The FPS on the IP channels are independent of the GV-CARDs. The FPS of the IP channels are determined based on
the output of the GV-Video Servers, GV-IP Camera, GV-IP Mega Pixel Cameras or 3rd Party IP Cameras. The following
are the recommended specs of the server to support IP cameras.
