Windows Platform  | Supports only Windows 2000, XP non-server version. Windows 98, ME works OK with GV650/750/800 and software versions prior to 5.4, but captured frame rate will get reduced. |
Video Cards | Any AGP type video cards that support DirectX 9.0 or above. De-interlace function support is a preferred option. Geovision cannot support "overlay mode" if used with motherboards having video chips on it. To get around to that, disable the video chip and use an AGP video card, or not to activate "overlay mode". This overlay mode displays full screen videos from cameras, without showing any command button. | | If you plan to use Real time Display (DSP) card that outputs up to 480fps onto NTSC/PAL TV, you need to use the following types (or newer models) of video card, such as:  | Geforce 2 or above AGP cards | | ATI Radeon 7000, 7500, 9000, 9500 AGP cards |
|
RAM type | For best performance, use DDR or RAM bus memory. You need 256MB if your server serves 132 channels (simultaneous per camera view, e.g. 8 users each viewing 16 cameras total to 128 channels), 512MB for 145 channels, 728MB for 174 channels, 1GB for 178 channels. |
Motherboard requirements | GV1000 models operates only with Windows 2000/XP desktop versions. Requires P4 2.8Ghz CPU, 800MHz FSB, 2 x 256MB dual DDR400 SDRAM on motherboards with Intel chipset (Intel 875 the best so far) , and one of the above recommended VGA card with 64Mb or more memory. | | GV900 models operates only with Windows 2000/XP desktop versions. Requires P4 2.6Ghz CPU, 800MHz FSB, 512MB RAM on motherboards with Intel chipset, and one of the above recommended VGA card with 64Mb or more memory. | | GV650, 750, 800, 900, 1000 models have 2,3,4,8,16 Bt878 "A/D capture" chip sets respectively. The factory uses a "HINT" chip to balance load and to control PCI bus traffic from these multiple Bt878s. This HINT chip conflicts with motherboard having VIA chip set; therefore, do not use motherboards with VIA chips. Also, use AGP video cards that supports Direct-X version 9. You can freely use any CPUs such as Pentium, AMD, Celeron etc.
If you capture up to 120fps at 320x240 pixel size with 4 channels of audio, all you need would be a P3 800Mhz. However, if you capture at 640x480, you need 4 times the CPU power. (Cannot capture audio with this video setting.) | | GV250, 600 models have one Bt878 "capture" chip set on each card. There is no "HINT" chip on board, therefore, you can use any mother board with CPUs such as Pentium, AMD, Celeron etc.
If you capture up to 30fps at 320x240 pixel size video with audio, all you need would be a P3 500Mhz. However, if you capture at 640x480, you need 4 times the CPU speed. (Cannot capture audio with this video setting.) |
Below is the list of motherboards which have been tested and working very well with GV systems.
