Where to get the patches
Link to the Sony SNC patches for 1.22.1:
zm_remote_camera-patches.tgz
How to apply the patches
Configuring the camera
First, you need to set up the camera using Internet Explorer. Go to the camera's IP address like so:
http://[ip address]/image1
Click on the "Setting" button near the top of the page. A new Explorer window opens. In this window, on the left, click on the "Camera" link.
On the "Common" Tab, set the camera into JPEG mode by clicking on the "Video mode" JPEG radio button. Select the resolution you want to use from the "Image size" pulldown menu. I use "320x240". Press the "Ok" button.
Now click on the "JPEG" Tab, and pick your desired frame rate. I use 5 fps. Press the "Ok" button.
Now you're done using Internet Explorer. Whew!
Setting up the monitor in ZM
Now you need to add a monitor for this camera to ZM. In the Console page, click on the "New Monitor" button. In the first Tab, "General", enter the following values.
- Name
- <Type in an appropriate name for this monitor>
- Source Type
- Pulldown <Remote>
- Function
- Pulldown <Monitor>
- Enabled
- <Check This>
- Linked Monitors
- <Leave alone>
- Maximum FPS
- <The frame rate you set using Internet Explorer, above. I used 5.>
- Alarm Maximum FPS
- <Leave alone>
- Reference Image Blend
- <Leave alone>
- Triggers
- <Leave alone>
Now click on the "Source" Tab, and enter the following:
- Remote Host Name
- [username]:[password]@[camera IP address]
- Remote Host Port
- 80 (unless you changed this in the Internet Explorer camera setup page "Network")
- Remote Host Path
- /mjpeg?speed=5
- Remote Image Colors
- Pulldown <24 bit color>
- Linked Monitors
- <Leave alone>
- Capture Width (pixels)
- <The image width you set using Internet Explorer, above. I used 320>
- Capture Height (pixels)
- <The image height you set using Internet Explorer, above. I used 240>
- Orientation
- Pulldown <Normal>
Now you must click on the "Save" button, and after a few moments, the new monitor will appear in the ZM Console window.
If you click on the monitor name, assuming you did everything right, a window should open and you should see the video from the camera.
