Geovision Center V2 Central Monitoring Software

A customer recently contacting us with the following question on Geovision center V2 software, which is the Geovision CMS (central monitoring station) software:

I currently have a 4 channel Geovision system using a GV-800 dvr card. Our company would like to add a 2nd system ata different location. For this system we need a 16 channel Geovision system. I heard that Geovision supports accessing multiple systems from one computer. Can you please let us know how this is done and if any additional software is required to do this?

CCTV Camera Pros response:

The software CD that is included with all Geovision DVR cards includes the Geovision Center V2 standard version which allows you to remotely connect to and monitor up to 5 Geovision systems and up to 80 channel / security cameras. So, there is no additional software purchase required to monitor up to 5 systems. If you ever expand beyond 5 systems or 80 cameras, you can upgrade to Geovision Center V2 PRO – Professional Series.

Follow up question from customer:

How many cameras can be displayed on one screen using the Center V2 software?
