GeoVision Point of Sale Monitoring Can Save You Money

GeoVision Point of SalesLosses are something a company or business never wants to see, and while losses can be explained by any number of reasons, a big reason for some businesses is that employees are being dishonest. Your employees may be skimming off the register or taking things when left alone, knowing that you put your trust in them to be honest. So how do you fix something like this? You use GeoVision's Point of Sale Monitoring.

Losses due to point of sale transactions can be a main cause for shrinkage as well as a constant drain on your business' resources. GeoVision's POS-DVR surveillance solution can help employers deal with these situations and stop the losses before they become too much for the business to recover from.

The GeoVision data capture device can monitor your register or counter area and even adds a transactional text overlay from each and every connected POS device. This provides you with visual contextual awareness that helps reduce shrinkage and protect assets from losses.

When a GeoVision system works in conjunction with a GV-Data Capture device, the GV-Series surveillance system can turn into a POS/DVR surveillance system. This allows vital transactional Point of Sale data to the system.

With these tools your management can be more effective at monitoring and remotely monitoring cashier areas, associate POS transaction data with videos, record videos for retroactive analysis, search transaction data to visually verify accurate sales and even output alarms for emergency events.

Don't let yourself become a victim of poor management and internal theft. Keep a bird's eye view on all of your business' transactions with the GeoVision Point of Sales Integration.

GeoVision G-View

GeoVision G-ViewOne of the best things about a security camera system is that you have full control over everything that has been recorded by the cameras.....as long as you are in the same room as the hardware the cameras are feeding to. But what about if you are away from home and you want to check the feed and see if everything is in order?

This may seem impossible but, thanks to GeoVision, it isn't. G-View is GeoVision CCTV in the palm of your hand through any PDA or smartphone. This CCTV DVR application expands the GeoVision network to handheld devices, including those from Dell, HP, Toshiba, Compaq and other manufacturers.

GeoVision Turbo Mode

GeoVision logoGeoVision has been one of the leaders in the market of digital surveillance for many years and always seems to produce some great products and some great features that work to enhance the way we use digital surveillance systems. Features with GeoVision continuously strive to make digital surveillance better and better each day and that is exactly what the company's newest feature, Turbo Mode, tries to do as well.

What Turbo Mode does is that it allows recording at the highest speed that GV-Combo Card A, which includes GV-1120A, GV-1240A and GV-1480A, can provide at the VGA and D1 resolutions. This basically means that the Type A card can record more frame rate per second than the current GV Combo card. Turbo Mode is not compatible with current GV Combo D-Type cards. If you are going to be using Turbo Mode and you have this setup then you will have to replace your old GV Combo card with 2 Type A cards.

Here are the minimum system requirements you will need to meet in order to run Turbo Mode on one GV-1408A card: Core 2 Quad 2.4GHz CPU, 2 x 512 MB Dual Channels of RAM for Windows 2000 and XP operating systems or 2 x 1 GB Dual Channels of RAM for Windows Server 2003 and Vista, ATI Radeon X1300 PCI-E or NVIDIA n7300 PCI-E VGA and 320GB HDD. The minimum system requirements to run two GV-1408A cards is a Core i7-920 2.66GHz CPU, 2 x 1 GB Dual Channels of RAM for all operating systems, ATI Radeon X1300 PCI-E or NVIDIA GeForce 7300 PCI-E VGA and 750 GB HDD.

Turbo Mode is out now on GeoVision 8.3 but a lot of details about it are hard to find. But nevertheless it seems like it will greatly improve digital surveillance recording and, hopefully, help out a lot of companies and businesses that use GeoVision digital recording systems for their security needs.
