5.7. Control a network camera with MultiSensor-LAN/RACK
The MultiSensor-RACK offers the possibility to send a control sequence as a HTTP request to any IP ready
network camera in case of an alarm. So in addition to the e-mail alerting also a video picture or a video
sequence can be sent. The transmission from the video picture is done by the camera.
The information to control the camera has to be inserted into the „cam.ini“ file. Create this file with a text
editor and copy it to the root directory of the MultiSensor via FTP, where you will also find the „config.ini“ file.
After a reboot the configured command sequence will be sent to the camera in case of an alarm. Up to five
cameras can be controlled. Create a new line in the „cam.ini“ file for each camera.
The delimiter for each parameter is a semicolon.
The HOST address can be any, is required by some camera servers.
Details for configuring E-Mail events in your network camera and the control sequence can be found
in the manual of the camera manufacturer.
5.8. Communication Interfaces MultiSensor-LAN/RACK
With the MultiSensor-RACK it is possible to send alarms as SNMP Traps.
Additionally all sensor values can be queried using the supplied MIB (Management Information Base).
This allows the integration in network-monitoring-systems like e.g. PRTG or Nagios.
For querying values and also recorded environment- and consumption values the MultiSensor-RACK
furthermore has a XML interface. The following queries can be executed:
