Hello, I'm trying to get ZM 1.21 to work with my Panasonic KX-HCM10. I have enabled control but I'm not getting any control:

my apache error log:

BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/local/bin/zmcontrol-kx-hcm10.pl line 75.
Can't locate Device/SerialPort.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /etc/perl /usr/local/lib/perl/5.8.4 /usr/local/share/perl/5.8.4 /usr/lib/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 /usr/lib/perl/5.8 /usr/share/perl/5.8 /usr/local/lib/site_perl) at /usr/local/bin/zmcontrol-kx-hcm10.pl line 75.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/local/bin/zmcontrol-kx-hcm10.pl line 75.


Please advise if possible,

Thanks again,
Tim

You need to fill the dependancies for the perl module device-serialport.
You can find the rpm http://www.ctu-web.com in the downloads section.

Thanks Cordel. I see the answer was right in the log files. I'm not use to installing perl modules. I got it working after your tip and adding the port number to my network cams ip address.
