gCMOB HD for PC

You're monitoring multiple camera feeds from your DVR or NVR, but switching between your phone and a desktop setup leaves you fumbling between devices. gCMOB HD brings your surveillance feeds to a larger screen where you can watch live video, access playback, and manage camera controls without the mobile app's constraints. Run gCMOB HD on your PC to keep all 16 channels visible at once, control PTZ movements with keyboard precision, and manage relay outputs: all while your computer stays connected to your security system.

gCMOB HD is a surveillance monitoring tool that lets you view live streams from CP Plus cameras and video encoders on a desktop. On a PC, the app scales to fill your monitor, giving you the workspace to track multiple camera feeds simultaneously and respond to alerts without the friction of mobile navigation.

Live Monitoring and Playback in Your Workspace

The core experience centers on watching and reviewing footage. gCMOB HD displays up to 16 camera channels in preview mode, letting you glance across your entire setup at once. When you need to dig into past events, the 16-channel playback function pulls recorded video which means you can jump to specific moments. The instant playback feature speeds up this process: useful when you're investigating an incident and don't want to scrub through hours of tape. Digital zoom on live video helps you examine details without navigating to a different view or zooming your browser window. On a PC keyboard, you can navigate between cameras and adjust settings faster than tapping a phone screen, keeping your hands under one roof during your session.

Core Surveillance Tasks in Order

A typical monitoring session unfolds in predictable steps:

1. Launch gCMOB HD and log into your CP Plus account or DVR/NVR credentials
2. Select your camera set from favorites or configure a new device to connect
3. View live feeds from your chosen channels in multi-camera preview mode
4. Use relay controls to trigger door locks, gates, or other switched outputs if needed
5. Access recorded playback when you need to review specific time windows
6. Enable two-way audio to communicate through the camera if your setup supports it

Camera Stream Control and Remote Management

gCMOB HD handles more than passive viewing. You can control PTZ (pan-tilt-zoom) cameras remotely, adjusting their position and focus from your desk. The app lets you reconfigure your connected devices, changing settings on your DVR or NVR without walking to the equipment. Relay output control which lets you unlock doors or trigger switches straight from the app. Push notifications alert you when motion or alarms occur, so you don't have to stare at the screen constantly. Two-way talk lets you communicate through the camera's speaker, useful for speaking to visitors or warning off intruders. The sliding feature helps you browse through a larger camera roster by scrolling through groups, and you can mark favorite cameras to avoid hunting through your full list each time.

Desktop-Focused Features

Running gCMOB HD for Windows PC gives you the room to leave the app open alongside email, messaging, or other work. A persistent connection on your home PC or office desktop means you stay logged in and monitoring without restarting or logging back in each time. The invisible task wheel and gesture controls reduce on-screen clutter, and switching between main and sub streams happens in one click when your camera supports multiple quality levels. Health monitoring shows HDD status so you know your DVR or NVR isn't running out of storage. E-map support lets you overlay cameras on a floor plan or site diagram, helping you quickly locate which camera caught an event.
