[Solved] Add temperature to image
[Solved] Add temperature to image
I am trying to figure out if it is possible to have the readout from a USB thermometer added to the monitors.
zmtrigger has the ability to add text to the image but I do not want to trigger an alarm.
Is there a way to do this?
Thanks

Re: Add temperature to image
If I'm not mistaken, I have recently seen mention of a camera that has a built in temp sensor, and can OSD the reading for you. I can't tell you which one, alas.
If you haven't already got running cameras, that might help.

Re: Add temperature to image
Sounds like maybe we should make zmtrigger optionally not alarm....

Re: Add temperature to image
zmtrigger is the answer.
Set your action to "show" and it will update the text on your monitor w/o setting an alarm, provided you have %Q placeholder added to the timestamp format field.
See the documentation:
http://zoneminder.readthedocs.io/en/sta ... estamp-tab
http://zoneminder.readthedocs.io/en/sta ... igger#perl

Re: Add temperature to image
So I am on the right track thinking a script that takes the temp reading and writes it to a file. Then somehow use the file/device interfaces in zmtrigger? Or could I call the temp binary from within the zmtrigger script?

Re: Add temperature to image
You write a script, which reads the temp from your device, then it should write that data to one of the sockets zmtrigger creates after you enable it. When zmtrigger is started, it creates a network and a unix socket. You send it a simple ascii string, defined in the docs mentioned earlier.
Just google how to write to a socket for the programming/scripting language of your choice if you don't know how to do that. Fairly straight forward.
I was going to just point you to my blog:
http://zmtrigger.blogspot.com/p/display-real.html
But when I went to that page, it was mostly empty. Apparently, I forgot to document the project I did using this feature. It is still in my head.
What I did was wire a DHT22 temp sensor to an esp8266. This chip is basically a mini adruino with builtin wifi.
It sends the temp to my zoneminder server every 15 seconds. Since I never uploaded the sketch to my blog, I pasted it below. You can see what I sent to the zm server socket. If your sensor is on the same machine running zmtrigger, then naturally the server ip becomes localhost. You could just write to the zmtrigger.sock file instead if you want.

Re: Add temperature to image
I use a script that polls a weather service server for my local temperatures. Then using zmTrigger.pl as described above using the %Q place holder in the Timestamp and using "show" in the command string for zmTrigger.pl to display it. I also use this method to indicate when an external remote motion detector triggers an event in the Timestamp.
When using the get the temperature script which is in PERL I set up a CRON job that 1x per hour it checks the temperature and updates the display.
I wanted to try out displaying the current water temp from a large aquarium that cameras where trained on with a usb thermometer.

Re: Add temperature to image
Thanks! So I might substitute your weblink with a call to my thermometer binary?
You are not using a network socket?
It´s been 20 years since I last touched any code. Will have to read up on php.
The Perl part, is is complete? Is that what runs as zmtrigger? Or is is it creating a soccet to it?
Thanks again!

Re: Add temperature to image
the php script communicates with the socket zmTrigger.pl creates. Also do not forget to check the options in ZoneMinder that in Options->Systems->OPT_TRIGGERS is checked and turned on. The PERL part was for the CRON job set up. There are several different ways to do it. The PERL script could be modified to call the weather server and send a command string through the socket to zmTrigger all by it self. The PHP code was added at the time for experimentation with remote motion detectors.

How do I identify my monitor? Getting this:
2017-01-16 23:41:27.051850 zmtrigger 4554 WAR Can't find monitor '2' for message '2|show|255|||22.9°C 73.2°F' zmtrigger.pl
How do I identify my monitor? Getting this:

Re: Add temperature to image
click on the monitor to open a view window, and look in the URL of the monitor as in the example:
mid=2 is the monitor number in this example. So this would be monitor 2
check yours and replace the 2 with your monitor number in the PERL script where {mon=}
Code: Select all
http://somedomain.us.to/zm/index.php?view=watch&mid=2
check yours and replace the 2 with your monitor number in the PERL script where {mon=}

Re: Add temperature to image
You can also hover over each monitor in the web console, w/o clicking, then look at the url that appears in the bottom, left corner of your browser

Re: Add temperature to image
Thanks,
I'm still in php. Haven't come around to the cron job yet.
The monitor is 2. I have even renamed it "2".
I used argv() to get the number but now setting 2 directly in php. Still getting:
Can't find monitor '2' for message '2|show|255|||22.8 °C 73.0 °F'
