GV-Control Center



Introduction
GV ‐Control Center is an integrated security management software that provides a handy tool to maintain a central
monitoring station. GV ‐Control Center is a comprehensive solution for central operators to efficiently control GV ‐DVR /
NVR / VMS, GV ‐Recording Server, I/O devices and IP cameras. With GV ‐Control Center, m ultiple GeoVision surveillance
and video management systems can be managed and maintained centrally to enhance their monitoring performance
and ensure smooth operation.

Key Features
 Live View: Remotely monitor videos from 900 camera channels
The Live View is a single display in which videos from a group of maximum 100 cameras can be shown, e.g. groups of
cameras at office areas, exits or on the streets. Depending on surveillance needs, the operator can open up to 9 Li ve
Views, with 100 camera channels for each Live View, on 9 monitors simultaneously. Each Live View supports live
monitoring and video playback altogether.

 Remote Desktop: Remotely access to client GV ‐DVR/NVR/VMS’s desktop
GV ‐Control Center can access the desktop of client GV ‐DVR / NVR / VMS and have full control of the client’s
monitoring system and Windows operation system.

 I/O Central Panel: Group and manage I/O devices from different hosts
GV ‐Control Center provides a useful I/O Central Panel for the operator to remotely manage I/O devices from various
GV ‐ IP devices. The operator can group function ‐related I/O devices together for ease of control, e.g. groups of IR
sensors, alar ms or fire exits. In case of building fire, for example, GV ‐Control Center can simultaneously trigger all
alarms in the networked GV ‐DVR / NVR / VMS and force opening all the fire exits or water spray systems.

 Remote Playback
The Remote ViewLog service enables playback of recordings from different hosts. The operator can utilize the service
to save video clips for later retrieval as event evidence.

 Video Wall (optional)
GV ‐ Video wall, TV wall, is an establishment of multiple monitors on a server. The operator can create a layout with a
variety of displays including desired camera channels, zoom windows, scan windows, web pages, video playback and
live view popped up from E ‐Map. A megapixel camera channe l can even be placed across monitors.

Minimum System Requirements

OS 64‐ bit
Windows 10 / Server 2016 / Server 2019
CPU Core i7 2600K, 3.4 GHz

RAM 16 GB Dual Channels

Hard Disk 1 GB for software installation

Processor Graphics Please see GPU Decoding Specifications below.

Direct X 9.0c

LAN Card Gigabit Ethernet x 2

Note:
1. It is not recommended to install GV ‐Center V2 (Pro) and GV ‐Control Center on the same PC. Running the two
software together on the same PC may result in CPU overload or system failure.
2. To display a megapixel IP channel across monitors, make sure the external graphic cards on a server are of the same
brand, model and driver version. The capacity of graphic cards must be equivalent to NVIDIA GTS 450 or higher to
ensure maximum efficiency.
3. When you find CPU usage is high or live view is unsmooth (dropping frames), you may need to increase CPU threads
and memory or decrease the number of connected cameras to improve the system performance.
4. For GV ‐Control Center to support up to 9 Live Views, with 100 camera channels for each Live View, higher PC
specifications are required than the minimum requirements.
