Jennov T-Series and PTZ Config

[mckenph]

I have tried just about everything to try to control these cameras and have had no luck. Has anyone gotten these to work. Everything else works but the controls. I have tried many different cameras and to me, these are the best. I use blue Iris on a pc but wanted to move over to my Raspberry. It uses a control called Chivision but could not find that anywhere to get the configs

Hello Mckenph,

Hope i could help you.
I use the Jennov T-Serie, reference JE-P22HT55-5X-FAS-64-UK and PTZ is working fine
I share with you (Control.PNG) the main setting of Control config (make attention that the password have to be set in the Control Device cell)

You can appreciate that i use the Foscam FI8620 base setting, i share with you the other side of parameter (by editing Control Type then the Foscam FI8620)

If i remember well, i believe that the PTZ arrow control are inverted, i swapped 2 parts of the config file FI8620.pm included by /usr/share/perl5/ZoneMinder/Control folder

Don't hesitate to give your feedback about this approach

Have a nice day
Fred

I have tried that and all the Pan and Tilts work but my issue is on the Presets that every time I push one I get "after sending PTZ command, camera returned the following error:'400 Bad Request'

Now I have tried many different control configs and all of them give me the same error


update - after making your changes and rebooting they kind of work. After I set the preset the only way I can get it to go there is to keep hitting it over and over again and eventually it will make it back there

Update2 - After a reboot, everything is working fine. Were you ever able to get the return location to work?

Update3 - Well the preset went back to moving just a little bit and if I hit it many times it eventually gets back to my preset

I didn't undertand your last request by the Update 2
Did you mean that i ever able to get the return location automatically ? that's right ?

[mckenph]

1. First I can't get the preset to work....all the way. if I putAutoStop to .5 when I hit the preset it does not go to the preset without hitting the preset over and over again. If I change it to 10.0 it will go longer without auto stopping but I have to hit the preset multiple times depending on where it is. So that kind of works
2. I can't get return location to work at all no matter what do. Not sure if it works on this camera

[MontlheryHome]

I never used the return location
i check it right now and i believe that the camera don't have the "home" preset position or feature but i didn't analyze the code by FI8620.pm file
the unique solution i see is to define the return location on the first preset, it works fine for me

[mckenph]

OK but what do you think about the AutoStop. Not sure why it is stopping when I hit the preset. Yea the return to preset 1 does not work for me but it may because of the autostop. So if I remove the autostop the presets work but if I move the camera, of course, it does not stop. So I am real close

[mckenph]

I guess I will pull out the autostop in the script, when I get home, to see if that fixes the problem.

Just as an FFI to move this camera to a prest location use http://ip/cgi-bin/hi3510/param.cgi?cmd= ... &-number=1
