Zoneminder 1.24 + Ethernet camera Sony SNC-RZ30P

[caladeira]

Hello!

I have a network camera Sony SNC-RZ30P and I'd like to be able to control it with ZoneMinder.

I've been following this post http://www.zoneminder.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=10995 but it's not for the current ZoneMinder version.

Unfotunately the wiki wasn't much helpfull, so I'd like some help seting it up with ZoneMinder 1.24.

Since I have one camera, I can build the script from scratch, but for that I need some guidelines how it's supposed to work.

Appreciate any help.

Hello!

I've seen that document already.

Unfortunately I don't have enough skills to develop a script and the information on how to do it isn't very helpful if you don't know already the steps involved.

As soon as I have some time, I'll try something and post the results on this thread.

Thanks.

Ok i try to adapt the PanasonicIP.pm script for sony ptz cam

Scripts are in this folder on my Gentoo 64 server :

AxisV2.pm
Ncs370.pm
PanasonicIP.pm
PelcoD.pm
Visca.pm

ok that work now my sony cams move !!!!
i need to adapt the script ...
after i send script for this ip cam

[Storm]

I have several SNC-RZ50N cameras. Did somebody manage to make any of the sony cameras to have PTZ?
At the moment I'm using the cameras on ubuntu 9.10 and they work with no problems but I can't make them to be controllable.

Hello i send my script is not 100% workable, i need to add preset function
but i think you're probably happy to use it
move with control icon ok
move with click on image seem to work but need some adjust ( that work with 640 or 720 large pixel image)
zoom ok
...
in my linux gentoo64 server the script is here :

/usr/lib64/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/ZoneMinder/Control/SONY_SNC_RZ30.pm
...

How can i split one Ethernet cable off a router connected to a modem? How can i do this to have 2 active connections off that one cable at once. Can i attach another router to the cable off the previous router?

[bcromwell]

You can buy adapters or DIY if you know what you are doing. Firefold.com is where I bought mine. This one is designed for a wall plate, if you want to split just the cable (male ends) then you will need two adapters and two rj45 couplers.



You can see the pinout on the side of the adapter if you diy it.

[kingofkya]

Just a FYI Also note when using these adapters you reduce you network speed if you go past 10 ft because you are now allowing outside interfernace because you removed the ground wires.
