    I downloaded 8.3 from Geovision they gave me the link after verifying my details, I installed it ran for about an hour then said my card may be counterfeit and duly shut down

    No way is this a dodgy card it has been running since 2007 on 8.1.2.0 and 8.2! I restarted the software and it has now been running for over an hour!

    I have reported the fault to Geovision it will be interesting to see what they say?

     

    It happened again so back to 8.2 until I get some info from Geovision

     

    I think I have solved my problem I removed all the previous drivers and installed the v8.3 again this time it said upgrading hardware from 1.42 to 1.55 rebooted and now it has been running for 2 hours

     

    Sorry just noticed Tracker I am using a GV-1240 D type 16.

    This is the email I just received when I requested the beta:

     

    Hi Kevin,

     

    We are about to release v8.3 in 2 weeks, so you may wait for the finally version as at this point we do not offer beta since the finally version is done.

     

    I received an email this morning saying it was released on the 2nd Feb! I have sent a reply so wait and see time

    Hi James thanks for the reply I did try Geovision but they just came back with a list the card will support not very helpful. The only solution I could think of was another GV-Net card and use Com1 or anyother apart from the one I am already using! then run the JVC software on it's own?

    Thanks, John.

    Back again !!

    I have bought a JVC TK-C1480BE which has RS485 set up inc digital zoom, is there anyway I can run the camera through the Geo software? there is a setup program I down loaded! if I am using Com3 for my GV-Net card I have no serial port on this new Intel board other wise I could use Com1 loads of USB's! is the answer to get another Gv-Net card? if I cant run it on the present setup Thanks,

    John.

    I tried again removing the software and folder plus the driver, re-installed the software and once again it came back with the old configurations. So I removed all again and went a bit deaper and there is a lot of files left in the windows folder I deleated them and reloaded the software and all is now well including DSP! Thanks to all for their help John.

    Ok I uninstalled the software removed all I could find with RegCleaner reloaded the software it wasn't a clean install as the previous settings were reloaded password,cameras etc has this to be a total wipe of the Harddrive or is there information stored I can remove? Thanks, John.

    If you use the configuration option it disables direct draw overlay and subsequently lowers live video quality.

     

    You should still get video from the DSP output without using that option, just will not be able to configure views.

     

    If there is still no video, make sure that option is first disabled (for now), make sure Geo is open, Geo card and software is legit and up to date.

     

    I am getting a bit confused the only reference to DSP I can find is when the Geo software is loading in the square box it says "Detecting DSP" then it disappears! where is Spot Monitor? as far a software goes rory I am running 8.12 and the card is legit and I have the latest DirectX 9 installed! "lost" Thanks, John.

    I got and understood all that Rory I will try a seperate Graphics card the on board is not bad but it uses the on board memory. The Iiyama is my PC monitor the cameras I am using are WV-CP484E and the results are good day and night I have a couple of dark spots which I will fill in with IR later. Thanks, John.

    Rory or ? a similar question I get a realy sharp picture on a video monitor but when I view the same scene with the Geovision software it looks slighty defused/not as sharp! I am using a Iiyama 21" Pro 512 CRT monitor, the graphics is on board Intel G965 125mb the card is a GV-1240, is there normaly some degrogation? Do I need a better Graphics card? Thanks, John.

    It is quite late with me and I've just logged in between the pub and bed so I may be off with this one...but

     

    Are you looking for a procedure on how to set back focus on a camera fitted with a zoom lens? If so try this

     

    Set the lens focus to infinity and fully open the iris by covering the lens with a suitable neutral density (ND) filter. Zoom out to the widest field of vision and view a distant object. Adjust the back focus until the object is in focus. Next,

    zoom fully in and adjust the lenses focus until the object is again focused.

     

    Repeat these steps until the full zoom range may be viewed with the minimum loss of focus.

     

    The last sentence seems a bit vague but then I'm slightly drunk!

     

    Well Drunk or not I will give it a try thanks for the help, if in the sober light of day you can read your post and add anthing it will be appreciated John.

    Hi all I got the Chinese Dome PTZ board talking to the Geovision software ok but what is the correct way to set up a zoom lens with a Panasonic WV-CP484E, I can get the lens to focus ok but I have to set up the ABF manualy is this correct? if I go auto ABF there is no way I can focus the lens! is there a correct procedure? Thanks, John.

    I am trying to work out the wiring on a H6ZBME-5P Cosmicar/Pentax lens they are as follows:-

     

    2 White---- 2 and 5 loosely shown linked like this [

    5 Blue ---- + 12v Near

    4 Green ---- 4 and 6 loosely shown linked like this [

    6 Red ---- + 12v Tele

    7 Orange ---- Pot Supply

    8 Grey---- Pot Return

    3 Sky Blue ----Wiper Focus

    1 Pink ---- Wiper Zoom

     

    So I am assuming 2,5,4,6 and 7 are all 12v +ve and 8 is -ve

    Pins 3 and 1 go to the respective outputs from the control board

    It's a bit confusing if the above is correct why did they not connect 2,5,4,6 and 7 internally! or am I reading it incorrectly? Thanks,

    John.

     

     

    The answer is using the common connection on the control board join 5 and 4 together use 2 to the focus connection and 5 to the zoom the rest are not used unless you are using feedback to a telemetry monitoring system
