Summary
The GeoVision card readers can integrate your current access controller with GV-System to
have access control and video surveillance working together. The GeoVision card readers are
connected between any access controller and GV-System. When a card is presented to the
card reader, the card reader will send the card data to both connected access controller and
GV-System. The GeoVision card readers can seamlessly and efficiently integrate the access
control system into video surveillance system to ease monitoring tasks and increase security.
