Extra Functions
User defined Extra functions can be useful for providing additional functions like
activating switches or browsing to a related web page.
You can specify up to 16 extra User Defined Functions for a camera. These are
URLs that can be accessed by clicking the User Defined Functions button on
the Camera Status and Control Toolbar.
For each extra function you can specify a Name, URL and Hint. The name is
displayed on the extra function button.
If the URL starts with http then a direct address is assumed. Otherwise the URL is
constructed by appending the string to the camera's Address. Note : No leading
/ is required.
If Browse To is checked, a Browser window is opened to the specified URL.
Otherwise Netcam Watcher Professional simply fetches the URL internally (i.e. it
issues a http GET). Any errors are ignored.
FTP Settings
This opens the FTP settings dialog that allows you to set up this camera to send
pictures or alarm pictures to a remote host. See the Using FTP section for more
information.
Preset Names
Click the Preset Names tab on the main Edit Camera dialog to associate
names with preset positions. This tab will only be visible if the camera supports
preset positions.
Some cameras allow you to also enter preset names into the camera. Netcam
Watcher Professional does not retrieve these names, so it is up to you to make
sure that any names in the camera match the names you set up here.
Some newer Axis products (eg 213, 241) use preset names instead of numbers.
For these devices it is important that you set up the preset names here to be
exactly the same as the preset names in the Axis device, otherwise they will not
work.
Note: For these Axis devices, if a preset name (in the camera) contains spaces,
you should replace the spaces with a plus sign (+), for example:
Axis Name : Back Yard should be specified as Back+Yard
