Amcrest CGI Commands

[jeremy.mathis]

Hello,
I came across this document, https://s3.amazonaws.com/amcrest-files/ ... DK_API.pdf and for most of what I have tried, it seems to work ok. There is one command I am interested in and can't seem to get anything but "ERROR" in response.

The command is under the PTZ section. The Code is "PostionReset" and it looks like it is supposed to reset the Position Reference for PostionABS. Here is the command I send to the camera, it looks right but only gives me "Error".

Code: Select all

http://10.10.10.162/cgi-bin/ptz.cgi?action=start&channel=PTZ&code=PositionReset&arg1=0&arg2=0&arg3=0&arg4=0

Any ideas?

I was hoping for just such a cgi command, but apparently it has been removed from the most recent firmware. The HTTP API link you provided is v1.51, but the most recent for my camera at least, is v2.12 with no such entry for PositionReset, and I also get the returned:

Code: Select all

Error

Bad Request!
