Hey,

I've followed the instructions on Wanscam_FR4020A2_PT to get my wanscam camera running.

My capturing, viewing and so on is working fine.
But i can't get the control working.

When i click on a flash (fe right), i see that my logs are nicely filled:

07/26/13 13:50:49.830811 zmcontrol[25101].DBG [Tx[2]]

And this happens also when i run it by console:

Code: Select all

zmcontrol.pl --id 1 --command=moveConDown

07/26/13 14:08:30.618089 zmcontrol[25101].DBG [Tx[2]]

When i run the movement directly from console/camera, it works:

Code: Select all

curl "http ://192.168.2.10/decoder_control.cgi?command=0&onestep=1&user=admin&pwd=passwd"

So the interconnection between zoneminder(server) and the camera works...

But the camera isn't moving.

Any idea what's going on? Or what i can try else?
Is there a way to see what exact command the server is sending out?

Ok, seems that the onestep is missing (or not working)?

I've changed following line in the pm-file:

Code: Select all

my $req = HTTP::Request->new( GET=>"http://".$self->{Monitor}->{ControlAddress}."/$cmd".$self->{Monitor}->{ControlDevice} );

to

Code: Select all

my $req = HTTP::Request->new( GET=>"http://".$self->{Monitor}->{ControlAddress}."/$cmd"."&onestep=1&user=admin&pwd=password" );

(changed admin/password)

And now it's working...
