VIVOTEK Appendix URL Commands for the Network Camera Overview For some customers who already have their own web site or web control application, the Network Camera/Video Server can be easily integrated through URL syntax. This section specifies the external HTTP-based application programming interface. The HTTP-based camera interface provides the functionality to request a single image, control camera functions (PTZ, output relay etc.), and get and set internal parameter values.
VIVOTEK 2. Style Convention In URL syntax and in descriptions of CGI parameters, a text within angle brackets denotes a content that is to be replaced with either a value or a string. When replacing the text string, the angle brackets shall also be replaced. An example of this is the description of the name for the server, denoted with in the URL syntax description below, which is replaced with the string myserver in the URL syntax example, also below.
VIVOTEK 3. General CGI URL Syntax and Parameters When the CGI request includes internal camera parameters, these parameters must be written exactly as they are named in the camera or video server. The CGIs are organized in functionally-related directories under the cgi-bin directory. The file extension .cgi is required. Syntax: http:///cgi-bin/[/...]/. [?=[&=...
