Quick Start Guide

Note for Recording
1. By default, the images are recorded to the memory card inserted in
the GV-IP Camera (except GV-IR Arctic Box Camera, which is not
equipped with a memory card slot). Make sure the Write recording
data into local storage option (see 4.1.1 Video Settings, GV-IPCam
Firmware Manual) is enabled. If this option is disabled, the camera will
stop recording to the memory card while the live view is accessed
through Web browsers or other applications.
2. Mind the following when using a memory card for recording:
 Recorded data on the memory card can be damaged or lost if
the data are accessed while the camera is under physical shock,
power interruption, memory card detachment or when the
memory card reaches the end of its lifespan. No guarantee is
provided for such causes.
 The stored data can be lost if the memory card is not accessed
for a long period of time. Back up your data periodically if you
seldom access the memory card.
 Memory cards are expendable and their durability varies
according to the conditions of the installed site and how they are
used. Back up your data regularly and replace the memory card
annually.
 Replace the memory card when its read/write speed is lower
than 6 MB/s or when the memory card is frequently undetected
by the camera.
3. It is recommended to use memory cards of the following setting and
specifications:
 Apply a battery backup (UPS) to avoid power outage.
 Use Micro SD card of MLC NAND flash, Class 10 for better
performance.
