Note: The above data was determined using the default codec H.264, default quality

level Q3 and hard disks with average R/W speed above 110 MB/s.

The frame rate limit is based on the resolution of video sources. The higher video

resolutions the lower frame rates you can assign to a single hard disk. In other words, the

higher frame rates you wish to record the more hard disks you need to install. For the

information of recording frame rates, you may consult the user’s manual of the GV-

System or the IP camera that you wish to connect to.

 The hard disk space required to install GV-System must be at least 1 GB.

 To use Advanced Video Analysis, at least 1 GB of memory is required.

 To use two or more of the following functions simultaneously, at least 2 GB of memory is

required: Advanced Video Analysis, Video Analysis, IP Camera and Pre-Record by

Memory.

3. CPU Requirements:

 For recording resolution of 640 x 480 or above, Pentium 4 processor with Hyper

Threading is required.

4. Default Settings:

 For software recording rates, all GV-Video Capture Cards, except GV-SDI-204 Card, are

set to CIF. For hardware recording rates, GV-5016 / 4008A / 4008 / 3008 Card is set to

D1.

 For software recording rates, GV-SDI-204 Card is set to 980 x 540. For hardware

recording rates, GV-SDI-204 Card is set to 1080P30.

5. The Card with PCI-E Interface:

 GV-Video Capture Cards with x1 interface support the PCI Express x1, x4, x8 or x16 slot.

GV-1120B, GV-1240B, GV-1480B Cards with x4 interface support x4, x8 or x16 slot.
