    I love X10! We probably get 1 deal per month from some rich guy that tried to cheap out with that crap. Around here we call X10 - Job Security!

    Help w/ Connecting Geo Watchdog Wiring

    Although we hook it up every time, I also think that not connecting the WatchDog is no big deal. Is it possible to splice into the wires before they get to the terminal block?
  5. I'm trying to get a GV-600/4 to work and I keep getting the 'Can't find keypro' error and Geo software won't boot up. Normally this is driver related, but I Know i'm using the right ones. I've tried ver 7.04 and 6.05 v.3 card (from a reputable place - not ebay) MSI PM8M-V MB HELP!

    Bad GeoVision Octi-Cables?

    Has anyone else had a problem traced back to bad Octipuss cables that come with the Geo cards. Usually channels 1 and/or 8 (9/16) won't display. It's happened to us a few times. Can you order replacement cables anywhere?

    Is Geovision the best?

    Ever call Geo for support and speak broken English at 4am? That's fun stuff too!

    We've used the Avers' standalone video servers and they're decent. We went the Geo route with the DVR Cards b/c the Avers cards didn't do audio. Do they now?

    Geovision software 'Can't find Keypro' error

    Maybe... I've already swapped it out for a new card and it's fine. If have time I'll test other models, if not, it's RMA time...

    Geovision software 'Can't find Keypro' error

    GV 600/4 I formatted it, reloaded XP and tried 6.05 & 5.401 and manually did the drivers and same problem. BTW - how do you tell what ver of Geo is running on a PC. There is no help/about. If there a txt file in case you can't load the Geo Software?

    Geovision software 'Can't find Keypro' error

    Thought about that. This card didn't come w/ one but I know we've had that problem in the past. Didn't know this was the error. Maybe I got an old card. I'll dig one up and give it a try. Thx! Checked with my tech and when we had the problem in the past, we would get a USB error and no video, but the Geo software would load. This seems different.

    Reputable vendor - have used over 100 cards from them over the past couple of years. Even tried 5.401... What MB do u use?

    Geovision software 'Can't find Keypro' error

    I switched to an Asus MB w/ Intel Chipset and same problem... I think its a bad card!
  16. CCTVDude

    Geovision software 'Can't find Keypro' error

    Is a new machine and is VIA... so I guess that explains the driver error. Thx. So what are the good chipsets to use? Intel & SiS? What Motherboards do you use?
  17. What is the min bandwidth to get a stable audio & quad multi-view display? We have a customer w/ dsl 1.5/256 (actually getting 1.2M down / 212K up) and the audio has gaps. I don't think it's a mic problem (although could be), but I was just wondering how much b/w the audio uses.

    According to Geo's web site, v7.05 was released on 11/15. Anyone have it?

    Geo v7.05 out?

    I am still using 7.02. I figured if I was going to get 7.04 I might as well get the newest... Where can I d/l it?
  21. CCTVDude

    Geo v7.05 out?

    Where can you get them? The Geo site only has 7.04 for d/l. Is there an FTP site or something????????

    GeoVision Audio Bandwidth Requirements

    Sounds like the problem I have. Audio that is recorded is perfect but over the net it's choppy... I was hoping it was BW related. Anyone w/ ideas?

    GeoVision Audio Bandwidth Requirements

    32K is not much at all, but I think it's maxing out his DSL. We talked him into upgrading to a higher DSL package (3M/756K ?). Hopefully it will help. I'm not one to go for inferior hardware, but we've had good luck using the cheap-o powered mics.
