Introduction
GV ‐BX8700 supports H.265 video codec to achieve better compression ratio while maintaining high picture quality at reduced
network bandwidths. The camera is equipped with a super low lux CMOS image sensor which allows the camera to provide a color
live view in near darkness. It also features a mini USB port fo r wireless connection through a GV ‐ WiFi Adapter (optional) or external
storage using a USB hard drive.

3. Mind the following limitations and requirements for the mini USB port:
* The USB hard drive must be of 2.5’’ or 3.5’’, version 2.0 or above
* The USB hard drive’s storage capacity must not exceed 2 TB
* USB flash drives and USB hubs are not supported
* External pow er supply is required for the USB hard drive
* To connect a GV ‐ WiFi Adapter, make sure it is connected before the camera is powered on.
4. Mind the following when using a memory card for recording:
* Recorded data on the memory card can be damaged or lost if the data are accessed while the camera is under physical
shock, power interruption, memory card detachment or when the memory card reaches the end of its lifespan. No
guarantee is provided for such causes.
* The stored data can be lost if the memory card is not accessed for a lon g period of time. Back up your data periodically if you
seldom access the memory card.
* Memory cards are expendable and their durability varies according to the conditions of the installed site and how they are
used. Back up your data regularly and replace the memory card annually.
* To av oid power outage, it is highly recommended to apply a battery backup (UPS).
* For better performance, it is highly recommended to use Micro SD card of MLC NAND flash, Class 10.
* Replace the memory card when its read/write speed is lower than 6 MB/s or when the memory card is fre quently
undetected by the camera.
