ZoneMinder Forums

Hello long time user, first post.

I recently started putting together an expansion on my ZoneMinder setup. Part of that is a SV3C C22 https://www.sv3c.com/SV3C-PTZ-Security- ... 28875.html
I haven't been able to find much information on it. Honestly feels like I'm the only person who owns one.

I already got it setup as a monitor in ZM. The PTZ control sort of works with the Netcat ONVIF control type as others with SV3C ptz camera have used. The only thing that doesn't work is the Home and Presets, which I would like to try to get working. I do know the presets function on the camera side using its built in web portal. So the past couple of days I dug through the Netcat.pm script and tried multiple things. But I'm starting to reach the end of my knowledge and googlefoo. I know nothing about perl but have been learning a bit with my research into this.

One thing I haven't been able to figure out is these 400 responses the camera sends. Comes up on every command besides the Home command. Even the directional commands return this but those do work and move the camera. So does anyone have any information on the SV3C ptz preset commands? Or can anyone point me in the direction on how to find out the commands?

Cribbed from my Sv3c.pm module:

$ sudo apt install npm
$ sudo npm install -s node-onvif
$ sudo npm install websocket

Sample application, server.js:
https://github.com/GuilhermeC18/node-on ... er/sample/

I modified server.js by copying to xxx.js and adding a function:
function foo(device) {
let params = {
'NodeToken':'PTZ-GPIO-Token'
};

device.services.ptz.getNode(params).then((result) => {
console.log(JSON.stringify(result['data'], null, ' '));
}).catch((error) => {
console.error(error);
});
}

then sticking a call to foo() in ptzMove(). Crude but effective
the result is:

$ node xxx.js
