Using PTZ turns off IR lights

Post by Handynakomo »

Ran into this issue a few days back when I started to set up a new camera on ZM.
I have no logs to document what really goes wrong but when I control it using this GET format

Code: Select all

cgi-bin/hi3510/param.cgi?cmd=ptzctrl&-step=0&-speed=90&-act=left
it just turns off the IR lights but still moves the camera. Whenever I use it outside of ZM by doing

Code: Select all

[CAMERAIP]/cgi-bin/hi3510/param.cgi?cmd=ptzctrl&-step=0&-speed=90&-act=left
It seems to work fine without issues. Using Dericam P2 with higher than default speeds.

I uploaded the modified control script aswell

As a little update, I moved over to Debian 9 from Debian 10.
Version is v1.32.3 and I still seem to have the same problem.
