Frequently Asked Questions - GV-IR Geovision
How do I pair the GV-IR remote with my Geovision camera?
The GV-IR remote typically works out of the box with compatible Geovision cameras. Insert two AAA batteries and point the remote at the camera's IR receiver. Press any button to test. No pairing is required for IR remotes.
What is the maximum operating range of the GV-IR?
The remote operates reliably up to 8 meters (26 feet) when pointed directly at the camera. The angle of transmission is about 30 degrees, so keeping the remote within this field ensures consistent performance.
What batteries does the GV-IR use and how do I replace them?
The remote uses two AAA alkaline batteries. To replace them, slide the battery cover on the back of the remote, remove old batteries, insert new ones matching the polarity symbols (+/-), and close the cover.
Can one GV-IR control multiple Geovision cameras?
Yes, if the cameras are equipped with IR receivers and have different ID/address settings. You can set each camera to a unique address and use the remote's camera selection keys to switch control. Refer to your camera's manual for address configuration.
What should I do if the remote stops working or has reduced range?
First, check the batteries and replace them if weak. Ensure the lens on the remote's IR emitter is clean and unobstructed. Also, verify there are no obstacles between the remote and the camera. If the issue persists, test the remote with a known working camera to isolate the problem.
Does the GV-IR require a clear line of sight?
Yes, the remote uses infrared light, which cannot pass through walls or opaque objects. For best results, aim the remote directly at the camera's IR receiver without obstructions.
Is the GV-IR waterproof or weatherproof?
No, the GV-IR is designed for indoor use only. It is not waterproof. Keep it away from moisture and extreme temperatures to avoid damage.
How do I clean the GV-IR remote?
Use a soft, lint-free cloth slightly dampened with water to wipe the surface. Do not use solvents or abrasive cleaners, which may damage the plastic housing. Ensure the remote is fully dry before use.
Are spare parts available for the GV-IR?
The only user-replaceable part is the battery compartment cover or batteries themselves, which are standard AAA cells. The remote contains no other field-serviceable components. For major repairs, contact Geovision support.
Can I use the GV-IR with a universal remote?
The GV-IR uses a proprietary infrared code set. While some programmable universal remotes may learn the codes using a learning function, this is not guaranteed. For full functionality, use the original GV-IR remote.
