LCN Forum

Hello,

One question about control IP camera and send PTZ command.
Now I create built-in web/panel in a table/projection (created site) and can see picture from IPcam.
Ok, on the next step I want to use PTZ commands and put buttons (up,down,right,left) to my table/projection next to built-on web/panel with image from IPcam.
I try to use "add" -> "control from browser" -> "from reference image(button)" -> "URL" and put PTZ command.
Now I have problem because if I push the button its redirected http and cleaning current view(please see at attachment). Which command from menu allows to send http string without redirect - I can not find such command.
I try to use "send/run command" -> "macro" but in a macro option there is only creator which imposes the use of LCN modules.
I want to watch streaming video and control cam head from buttons.

Hello,

yes, with the Button control from browser, a new Site opend, if clicked.We think, you schould use a Ext. Connection


- First, go to setup, -> Ext. Connections and create a connection from type HTTP/SOAP
- Set a name(e.g. Cam_ptz) and the adress of the cam, like this:

In the next step, create a macro. Choose action HTTP / SOAP
