C7Installer 0 Posted November 18, 2005 Checked around the forum but I haven't seen any posts about using the Geovision cards with more than one "register". We have a customer that is planning a new POS system purchase. They have several "register" stations that employees use when ringing up customers (retail). Has anyone seen the Geo cards work in this way? How would it be connected and would it be possible to overlay the text from each register on a separate camera feed (one camera for each register)? The planned POS system will likely be based on the "Retail Pro" software. The "register" stations are PC based (obviously). Any thoughts? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sal 0 Posted November 18, 2005 Ok, for lets say for register that output in serial ASCI text, here is what you would need. 4 x GV-Data Capture boxes (one for each register) 1 x GV-HUB ( this is a USB to serial HUB with integrated 485 to 232 converter) The GV-HUB will give you 4 COM ports on your geo dvr. (One for each GV-Data Capture) You will run a twisted pair from each gv-data to the 485 screw terminals on the back of the gv-hub. The answer to your question is yes, you can associate a gv-data with any camera feed indvidually. Currently the max # of gv-data per geovision dvr is 4, but at some point Geo will release an IP based GV-data box that will allow up to 16 POS per DVR. Does this make sense?
