Greetings.
The problem is that camera control doesnt work in zoneminder.
When i press the arrow key's, nothing happens.
I create script in /usr/share/perl/5.10/ZoneMinder/Control
and select it in control>control type.
Im not sure what i should type in "Control Device" and "Control Address",
but now its looks like this:
Control Device user=admin&pwd=
Control Address xxx:xxx:xxx:xxx (cam ip)

Hi,

I had the same problem. I have now resolved it.

Control address should be the same as Remote Host Name. Basically the host name if you have DNS or the IP Address.

The control device should follow this format:

user=operator&pwd=XXX if you still have the default admin, this should be user=admin&pwd=

One tip, make sure that you can control the camera directly first and the presets are working. They should then work from Zoneminder.

I am no expert so I hope it helps.

Control Device user=admin&pwd=
Control Address xxx:xxx:xxx:xxx

and still dont work

Hi,

The file I am using is attached. This works for the Foscam FI8910E. Can you control the cameras directly and set the presets? They should then work.
