How to install GeoVision GV-BX3400-3V

• Plan your placement: Determine high-traffic or high-risk zones where detail is essential, such as entrances, cash registers, aisles, or corridors. Choose a mounting option (wall, ceiling, desk, corner, or pole) that provides a clear line of sight while minimizing potential blind spots.
• Prepare mounting hardware: Use the appropriate bracket or mount kit for the selected location. Ensure the surface is stable and capable of supporting the camera’s weight. Have data cabling, power considerations, and network access ready for a clean installation.
• Install the camera: Secure the GV-BX3400-3V to the chosen mount, adjust the general angle to frame the target area, and tighten mounting screws to prevent any movement. If needed, make micro-adjustments after lens focus is set.
• Connect and power: Attach the network cable and power supply as required (PoE if supported in your network, or a compatible power source). Confirm the camera is reachable on the local network by pinging its IP address or using the camera’s discovery utility.
• Configure imaging and streams: Access the camera’s web interface to select Color or Monochrome mode, configure exposure, white balance, and focus. Set up streaming profiles (H.264, MJPEG, or 3GPP) and adjust frame rate to balance image quality with bandwidth. Finish with motion detection, storage paths, and alert settings, then perform a test recording and playback to verify clarity and reliability.
