radigital 0 Posted January 16, 2006 Hello, I would like to know if anyone knows how to setup GeoVision system for Remote View via Dynamic IP. Also, how to configure it for PDA View, does anyone know of the specs of the PDA. Any information would be helpful Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scottj 0 Posted January 16, 2006 Did your Geo gear not come with a manual? If not, go to www.geovision.com.tw and download the manual, it will answer all the questions very clearly. Scottj Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jasper 0 Posted January 17, 2006 This is not the program that is specified in the manual, but it will work. Read throught this website: http://www.no-ip.com/ The good thing about no-ip is that it will work even if the DVR software is not loaded. Enabling you to remotely administer the DVR if necessary. On the PDA stuff, read the manual or search the forum as it has been discussed before. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
andy 0 Posted January 17, 2006 Haha, I don't remember ever seeing a RTFM answer on here before. To answer the question though: yes, most of us know how to set up remote view with a dynamic ip. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rory 0 Posted January 17, 2006 here's a post that might interest him: http://www.cctvforum.com/viewtopic.php?t=3287 Basically if you use a Router you can just set up a free account with DynDns.org and enter that into into the router, it will auto update the DDNS name account when the IP changes. Also this means one less service running on the DVR Server. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jasper 0 Posted January 18, 2006 I think it just gets frustrating sometimes when you're in the business of selling the hardware that somebody has bought from somebody else and obviously seems to have no support from the seller then they come here asking for support. Then you get a question that is easily answered if you just take time to read that section of the manual which is like a one-page. I think people should at least read the manual before asking a question. I could see if they didn't understand something of the manual and they're asking for clarification. Anyway enough for that.

DAMN, if you don't feel like answering the question, as you seem to make it waste of your time, stop writing long letter, you probably could have told me how to set up the system in this time, if you new how Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thomas 0 Posted January 20, 2006 I am going to politely suggest that everyone be chill. Radigital, Jasper isn't the one who told you to read the manual, he was simply pointing out why someone might say that. On the other hand I have seen some truely bad manuals and man pages. Guys cut some slack before going to the RTFM. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cam2 0 Posted January 20, 2006 I have pm'd radigital and offered to help. I know what its like when your starting out, the manual is easy AFTER you know the basics. This technology hasn't been around that long so i guess we all had to start not too long ago Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guys cut some slack before going to the RTFM. I had to look that RTFM up as I didn't know what it meant. I find I am having to do that a lot these days as people are talking in code now. Radigital, sorry you took that personally. I guess I should have kept that to myself. I did try to help you though, just not with the PDA aspect as I have not used that feature.

Thomas 0 Posted January 20, 2006 Bah, RTFM isn't new. I recall a system admin telling me that way back when I was dialing into his system. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jasper 0 Posted January 20, 2006 Bah, RTFM isn't new. I recall a system admin telling me that way back when I was dialing into his system. I have so many acronyms rolling around in my head. He probably didn't say RTFM, he probably said something else. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rory 0 Posted January 20, 2006 darn, Geo has a manual?? I never looked .. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jasper 0 Posted January 20, 2006 Yeah, you can actually read it when it is printed out. The little book they give you, well that is another story. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rory 0 Posted January 20, 2006 that little (thick) book is what you're paying for also i just never had a need to look at it .. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jasper 0 Posted January 20, 2006 (edited) Your very modest today. Me either because I can't see it. Most of the time you figure stuff out then you can understand what they were tyring to say in the manual.
