Linksys Internet Camera
The Linksys Internet Camera module provides an interface to the Linksys camera series. This module is
similar to the HTTP Read in that it reads images over the Internet but
also provides an easier interface
to the Linksys Camera and its pan/tilt capabilities. Note that when accessing cameras over
the Internet there can be significant delays when panning or tilting the camera. Keep in mind the
delay when using those buttons otherwise you will overreact the movement.
Interface
Instructions
1. IP Address - specify the IP address of the camera that you would like to connect to.
2. If you are using a different port number than port 80 simply type that number into the port field.
2. Username - the username for HTTP authentication access.
3. Password - the password for HTTP authentication access.
4. Camera Type - select which camera type you are connecting to. For
unlisted Linksys cameras please contact us
with a Internet accessible IP address to such camera. Having access will allow us to QA
the interface and enable that functionality.
5. Manual Position - use the buttons to move the camera as appropriate. The red
center button will move the camera home.
6. Movement Variable - the variable that contains the commands that will
move or change the camera attributes. The following values within the variable will
create the following movements:
0 = stop
1 = up
2 = down
4 = left
8 = right
16 = home
7. Speed - manual or variable setting of pan and tilt speeds. or variable zooming. Either select a manual speed from the dropdown or
specify a variable that will contain the required speed. Note that the valid values are from 1 to 10. Values
higher or lower will be truncated appropriately. You can use the variables to specify speeds in order to
quickly make coarse or fine adjustments to the position of the camera instead of successive sequential
small movements.
